The first time of a few opportunities
The game started as expected: Potafogo with the ball and youth published on the counter -attack. The first opportunities of the visiting team, which ended badly with Taliari, were six.
Jesus spoils!
A few players were affected by the bad Botafogo 2025, such as Igor Jesus. With a goal in the year and without scoring in nine games, the 99 shirt disturbs.
In 23 minutes, Arthur and Marlon Freitas exchanged passes until the 7 shirt across the center forward. The head was accurate, with no opportunity for Marcao: 1 a 0!
The match continued without great feelings until the last minutes of the first stage, when Petterson and Savarino finished badly the plays of youth and Bootfogo, respectively.
Young people lose opportunities
On the way back, the scenario changed. With a midfield space, the Fábio Matias team stormed the competing area three times in five minutes. Mandica and Pazala ended up badly.
Enter the bridge and brand!
Pava’s answer was Bridge and Santi Rodriguez in Vitinho and Patrick de Paula. The coach’s bet, which made the team more attack, was worth it.
At the age of 15, Ponte went to the bottom and crossed to Igor Jesus, who went. In the next minute, Cuibano is served on the other side and vigorously.
What appeared in the area was Ponte, who completed the goal: 2-0 for Tafuogo. The hero of the two sides, which transcends the competing area, is one of the coach’s requests.
The game is here
The match was open. Young people almost reduced 19 with Taliari hit the John Post. Shortly after that, it is the role of Artur to seal the crossbar in Marcao.
At the age of twenty -five, Ponte appeared again in the attack and Igor found Jesus in the area. The shirt turned 99 and ended well, but the target was canceled due to an obstacle at the beginning of this step.
The network was not swinging again, it was “inefficiency” for the attackers. Some of the clear opportunities were, but the finishes were not accurate. It is reported that we regret the part of Botafogo.
