Decisive figure settles it late for Botafogo against Santos | OneFootball

Kadir Barría struck in the fifth minute of second half stoppage time to give Botafogo a 2-1 win over Santos. The substitute's calm finish settled a tight night in Rio.

Introduced late, the Panama forward almost struck earlier. In the 80th minute he had a drive blocked after stretching Peixe down the right.

He then imposed himself in the air, winning two duels to keep Fogão high against the Alvinegro Praiano and sustain pressure.

The decisive moment came on a fast break deep into second half stoppage time, when he arrived in the centre of the box and swept into the middle of the goal.

In just 13 minutes he produced two attempts, one on target, two touches in the box and completed two of three passes, a burst that tipped the balance for Glorioso.

Fogão climb from 12th to ninth in the table and host Vitória next. Peixe are 16th and visit UCV in the CONMEBOL Sudamericana next.

How high would you rate Barría's impact tonight?
