Little to go. O Botafogo was tied 0-0 with the black Bridge this Thursday, at Moisés Lucarelli, and remained in the lead of the B series, with 62 points. The Glorious now depends only on a win on Monday against the factory worker, at home, to ensure access, without depending on other results.
The first half was balanced. Ponte Preta even submitted more, but the best chances were for Botafogo. The main one came out right away at five: after a free kick in the area, the ball stayed alive, Kanu got the rebound and Ivan made a defense of pure reflex, saving Macaca.
Botafogo would swing the net after 18 minutes, in a beautiful play: Carlinhos received it, crossed from the left and Rafael Navarro, with his head, dislodged Ivan. The bid ended up being invalidated by impediment, attested by the (crooked) lines of the VAR. It wasn’t very clear, but…
The game didn’t change the panorama much in the second half, with a bad technical level. But the best opportunities continued to belong to Botafogo. On minute 22, Diego Gonçalves found Ronald free on the right, the short one raised the ball and dropped the bomb outside, wasting a great chance.
Botafogo continued to attack more than Ponte Preta, which was closed. At 35, Carlinhos took a free-kick from far away on a curve, the ball hit the crossbar and went out. The game dropped even more in terms of performance at the end, with many mistakes from both sides, and the score ended up unchanged: 0-0.
Botafogo’s upcoming games
Botafogo returns to the field next Monday, a holiday, to face Operário, at 4 pm, with the promise of a full house at Nilton Santos Stadium. Afterwards, visit the lantern Brazil-RS on the 21st at Bento Freitas, in Pelotas, and closes the season on the 28th, at home, against Guarani.
