With the triumph, Esmeraldino climbed to the 12th position of the classification with twelve points. Alvinegro has the same score, but occupies two positions above.
Playing in front of their fans, Botafogo opened the scoring just before the break, with defender Víctor Cuesta heading in after a corner kick from Daniel Borges. However, at the beginning of the final stage, the player who changed the panorama of the match, Pedro Raul, entered the field.
In the 28th minute, shirt 11 left everything the same with his head, after receiving a beautiful three-finger cross from midfielder Fellipe Bastos. The law of the ex (when a player scores a goal against a team he once played for) came back into action in the 38th minute. After a quick counterattack, Vinícius left Pedro Raul cool to just shore up and score.
went up nice
