Botafogo received an unexpected blow in the Brasileir\u00e3o: they lost at the Nilton Santos stadium. That was the big surprise of Matchday 22, and the executioner was Flamengo, led by the criticized Argentine coach Jorge Sampaoli.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Bruno Henrique was the hero of the ‘Mengao’, which consolidated its position at the top of the league and gave life to the ‘Fogao’s’ pursuers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Athletico Paranaense, meanwhile, salvaged a point at home, drawing 1-1 with Atl\u00e9tico Mineiro with a late goal from Vitor Roque.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In addition, Gremio reaffirmed their recovery and beat Cuiab\u00e1 2-0, thus consolidating their position as one of the teams that want to achieve the miracle and take the title away from Botafogo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
