Excellent performance in the first half
From the start, Corinthians put Botafogo under pressure in defense and bet on the rapid exchange of passes from one side to the other. Ribeirão Preto’s team protected the goal with organization in the first thirty minutes. Individual talent was what made the difference in the opening of the scoring.
Renato Augusto he showed all his class and made a great pass Roger Guedes cut the marker and finish at the corner. It was the striker’s fourth goal at the Paulistão, capping off an excellent start to the year. The duo’s good relationship rightly gets Corinthians fans excited about the streak of the year.
Away, Romero played as number 9 in spared Yuri Alberto’s vacant seat, but contributed little on the pitch. But, at 36, the team’s marking in the offensive field worked. Adson pressured the defender, stole the ball and shot into the opponent’s net to score the team’s second goal.
Corinthians returned from the break to control the game. The team knew how to play the ball intelligently and managed the scoreboard very calmly. Botafogo came out more for the game, went up the lines, but attacked little.
The third win in a row and convincingly gives coach Fernando Lázaro confidence for the last leg of Paulistão. In the next round, the team will face São Bernardo on Thursday at 19:30, away from home.
