Brasileirão Matchday 25: Botafogo 2-0 Fortaleza

Botafogo regained the lead after their 2-0 win over Fortaleza, who are now two points behind the Fogão, although with a game in hand.

Igor Jesus foi a estrela após marcar os dois gols do time carioca, que foi um vencedor justo, pois tentou o máximo. Mas foi um jogo muito disputado, pois os gols saíram na parte final do segundo tempo.

O primeiro veio aos 73 minutos após um passe longo do zagueiro Alexander Barboza, que Igor Jesus defendeu no peito e chutou de primeira, na cara do gol. O segundo veio nos acréscimos, quando Tiquinho Soares recuperou a bola e entregou para Marlon Freitas, que deu passe em profundidade para o atacante, que só precisou correr e encarar o goleiro, finalizando suavemente para o lado para o definitivo 2 a 0.

O Botafogo, que em 2023 perdeu o título da liga da forma mais incrível possível, não quer perder essa oportunidade, embora ainda não esteja dependendo de si mesmo. O principal problema do time carioca é sua péssima forma como visitante, então, mesmo que essa vitória seja fundamental, eles precisam endireitar o caminho, ou Palmeiras e Fortaleza podem superá-los mais cedo ou mais tarde. Uma busca pelo título sem vencer fora de casa é insustentável.

Brasileirão Matchday 25: Corinthians 2-1 Flamengo

One of the surprises of the weekend was Corinthians’s 2-1 victory over Flamengo, which is very useful in the relegation battle. For the Mengão, it was a hard blow as it moved away from the leadership.

The Timão managed to take the lead after a mistake by David Luiz allowed Yuri Alberto to run down the flank and send a cross to Talles Magno, who headed in the ball to make it 1-0.

The Fla’s equalizer came at 37′ with a penalty kick by Pedro after a handball by José Martínez. It was the 11th goal for the striker who is the top scorer in o Brasileirão.

But, at minute 60, Rodrigo Garro filtered a pass to Yuri Alberto, but it rebounded and fell to Ángel Romero, who had just entered the field, and the Paraguayan scored the definitive 2-1.

With this victory, Corinthians remains in the relegation places, but now with 25 points, two less than Grêmio and Fluminense, and three points behind Juventude, who could be their rival in this fight. Flamengo, on the other hand, is stuck in fourth place with 44 points, six points behind leaders Botafogo.

The Verdão took an early lead in the scoreboard after 8 minutes, when Maurício appeared to finish off a cross from the right. After that, both teams tried and it was a back-and-forth game, but the score would change again in the second half.

The second would come through the São Paulo team’s star player, Estêvão, who received a pass from Richard Ríos, made a great individual play inside the area, and made a powerful shot, impossible for the goalkeeper.
