Small audience and a lot of ball in Nilão. The stove is 4-0 in the Colorado in a goal of great goals. The 2024 champion wakes up in Brazilirão
Botafogo is rediscovering the good football that led him to the Brazilian title and Libertadores in 2024. Saturday evening, 11, for the eighth round of the Brazilian, in Nilton Santos, against an international mix, the stove had the party of his fans.
The audience was not one of the largest (7,800 gifts), in this rainy and cold mother’s party. But those who participated saw the stove give a show and a 4-0 victory. After all, without the ball, they were beautiful goals by Igor Jesus, Arthur, Cuiabano and Alex Telles. Also highlighting Marlon Freitas, who gave two exceptional exits to two of the objectives.
The glorious, with this gala game, reaches 11 points. Therefore, jump to eighth place in the Brazilirão table. But the international fall, free and three straight losses, to 9 points in 13th place. Only two in front of the relegation area. Very bad for a team mentioned as a favorite of the title.
Inter with the ball, stove with the effectiveness
The International – focusing on his game for Libertadores – has arrived with many absences. The main: your star Alan Patrick. This further encouraged Botafogo, who began and reached his goal after eight minutes, when, after having confused the offer in the area, the ball reached Jeffinho, who crossed the right conclusion of the best marker Igor Jesus.
The advantage made Botafogo more closed. But this retreat began to offer internal opportunities, with a higher volume (56%, 6-0 in corner kicks in the pass). He arrived in danger and, in one of them, Wesley forced John to make a good rescue. However, at 42, after cutting a corner, Marlon Freitas released Arthur, who saw the goalkeeper Anthoni advanced and touched. 2-0. This in a phase in which the rival had 12 observations and Alvinegro, 4. Effective.
What a painted goal, Botafogo!
In the second half, Marlon Freitas made magic again. From his intermediary, he overcome that Gérson Canhotinha would applaud, finding Cuiabano. Better than the passage, only the solution that Cuiabano found, playing for coverage also with the double marking. Painted, this third goal of Botafogo.
But it would be more. With the Knocked International, Botafogo has deposit and roll on the field with a gala performance in the second half. And the icing on the cake was with Alex Telles, who sent a bomb from outside the area to make another beautiful goal. And there was no more objective due to two presentations by Rwan, who entered the place of Igor Jesus, who went closely – on Monday, even dribbled the goalkeeper. Anyway, what a play botafogo!
