First time
The initial phase was very intense, with both teams trying to attack. Santos looked to play more on the wings and in the air, but failed in the last move and didn’t realize their chances.
Botafogo grew in the final moments and had more space to attack the backs of the visiting flanks and create good opportunities with striker Leandro Pereira. However, the two teams went into the locker room tied 0-0.
Second time
After the break the match continues to be more balanced with both teams trying to dominate possession. As the minutes passed, the Juventus beach player became more aggressive and had a great chance with Willian Bigode who headed the ball and goalkeeper João Carlos saved. But in the 25th minute Giuliano makes a beautiful pass to Otero who, with great quality, finishes with a volley and opens the scoring in the duel.
Botafogo pressed a little more in the final minutes and bothered the Santos defense. Carille, on the other hand, preferred to bet on the result and attack quickly at the sides of the pitch. Goalkeeper João Paulo made an important save at the end and ensured Santos’ victory in their debut in the 2024 state championship.
