Corinthians and Botafogo draw in fiery, controversial clash 📹 | OneFootball

Corinthians and Botafogo ended in a 2 x 2 draw in an exciting match this Sunday (30), at the Neo Química Arena, for the 36th round of the Brasileirão.

The Timão rises to ninth place, with 46 points. They have no chance of securing a spot in the Libertadores through the Brasileirão - only through the Copa do Brasil.

Meanwhile, Botafogo remains in fifth, with 59 points - the top five go directly to the group stage of the Libertadores.

However, Botafogo is closely followed by Fluminense (58 points) and Bahia (57).

The match was marked by a goal validated by millimeters.

Gustavo Henrique scored the 2 x 2 after Raniele - according to VAR - prevented the ball from going out AT THE LIMIT. So, did the ball go out or not?

The next round will feature Fortaleza vs Corinthians (Wednesday, the 3rd, at 7 PM) and Cruzeiro vs Botafogo (Thursday, the 4th, at 7:30 PM).

Hot Game 👀

The game had ONE HALF for each team. Corinthians dominated the first half and took the lead with Raniele after a BIZARRE mistake by the defense.

Botafogo woke up and TURNED the game in the second half, with a goal by Cuiabano at 15 and a STUNNING goal by Jordan Barrera at 21.

In the end, however, Corinthians came back into the game and scored with Cuiabano after Raniele saved and Vitinho made a beautiful play.

A 2 x 2 that was only good... for Fluminense and Bahia, Botafogo's competitors in the fight for a spot in the G-5 of the Brasileirão.
