The other Willian rolling with Cruzeiro

A Raposa is top of the table and seeks a seventh win in a row



Willian--no, not the one that was just picked up by The Special One over in London, the other one with Cruzeiro--had a brace against Goias Wednesday to give the current leaders (43 points) a sixth consecutive victory, entering the 21st round of the Brazilian championship.

The club hosts fourth-placed Atletico Paranaense (35) tomorrow and are riding an 18-match win streak at home in the Mineirao stadium.

Meanwhile, down south from Belo Horizonte near the coast, living geezer legend Clarence Seedorf and his second-placed side Botafogo side (39) will be away to Santos (28), a difficult but not impossible task to snatch three points. 

If all goes well for Cruzeiro and Botafogo this weekend, then it should be a cracker of a match between these two on Wednesday at the Mineirao.

Geezer of the Day

To follow up the South American vibe, here's 37 year-old Clarence Clyde Seedorf scoring a beauty for Botafogo against Gremio.

He's won the Champions League four times with three different clubs, and is still an absolute beast...and his middle name is Clyde, got to love that.
