Gustavo Henrique calls Corinthians draw a missed opportunity | OneFootball

Corinthians drew 2-2 with Botafogo on Sunday afternoon at Neo Química Arena, in the 36th round of the Campeonato Brasileiro. Defender Gustavo Henrique praised the team's effort, but saw the result as a “missed opportunity”.

“For me, it’s a missed opportunity, we played a great first half. Botafogo’s team is very good, they made changes at halftime that made our marking more difficult. They improved and started to get into the game. Playing at home, we always have to win, especially when we’re up 1-0. Unfortunately, we conceded the turnaround, but we didn’t give up and at least managed to get the draw,” said the defender in an interview with Premiere.

With this result, Corinthians jumps to ninth place with 46 points, two behind eighth-placed São Paulo. With no chance of reaching the G7, Dorival Júnior’s team is aiming for at least eighth place to have a shot at a spot in the Libertadores in case of failure in the Copa do Brasil.
