Botafogo beat RB Bragantino, edge closer to Copa do Brasil quarter-finals 🇧🇷
At the Nilton Santos Stadium, Botafogo defeated RB Bragantino 2 x 0, this Tuesday (29), in the first leg of the round of 16 of the Copa do Brasil 2025. The match was totally dominated by the current champions of the Brasileirão and America. The Paulistas, in fact, only threatened at the beginning of the match, with a cross shot from Sasha saved by John. Afterwards, it was all Botafogo, who opened the scoring with Montoro, first completing the low cross from Vitinha, from the right. The Glorious did not slow down, gave a lot of work to goalkeeper Cleiton, and scored the second goal still in the first half. Now, in a counter-attack pulled from the left side, Cuiabano crossed perfectly for defender Alexander Barboza, like a well-positioned center forward in the opponent's area, to head into the back of the net. After the break, Botafogo still had good chances to further increase the advantage.🚦 What's next With the victory, Botafogo can even lose by one goal, next Wednesday (6), at the Cícero de Souza Marques Stadium, and still advance to the quarterfinals. RB Bragantino needs to win by three goals difference to guarantee qualification. In case of a win by two goals, the spot will be decided on penalties. Massa Bruta returns to the field next Sunday (3), when they visit Atlético-MG, at the MRV Arena, for the 18th round of the Brasileirão, while the Glorious hosts Cruzeiro, at the Nilton Santos Stadium, for the national championship.

Goalkeeping howlers steal the show in this round of the Copa do Brasil 🇧🇷
A PANDEMONIUM IN THE SYSTEM seems to have hit several goalkeepers in this 17th round of the Brasileirão, with strange plays and bizarre mistakes. Ceará, for example, gave a big present to Cruzeiro. Bruno Ferreira touched the ball weakly and left the goal open for Kaio Jorge. Luckily for the goalkeeper, Ceará managed to turn the game around, won 2-1 at Mineirão, and secured three very important points. Santos' goalkeeper Brazão starred in another BIZARRE mistake. He kicked the ball onto the opponent, and Derik opened the scoring. Sport even took a 2-0 lead, and Santos reacted later: 2-2. And it doesn't stop there! Lucão, from RB Bragantino, tried to launch, but Lucca Prior dominated, shot from a distance, and covered the goalkeeper. In this case, the goalkeeper's mistake weighed heavily, and Fortaleza lost 3-1. But goalkeepers didn't just suffer from mistakes in ball exit... Léo Jardim, from Vasco, was sent off for CERA. And this list of bizarre goalkeeper mistakes ALMOST had another example, but Rony didn't take advantage of Rossi's mistake: This was, in fact, NOT the round of the goalkeepers...

🎥 Flamengo edge Atlético in tense clash, go top in Brasileirão
It was a kind of "preview" of what is to come in the round of 16 of the Brazil Cup. And Flamengo got the better of Atlético Mineiro this Sunday (27), for the 17th round of the Brasileirão in front of 54,550 attendees. In a tense game, with a controversial move and many cards, the Rubro-Negro won 1 x 0 thanks to Léo Ortiz. And they returned to lead the Brasileirã in the 1st Half The first acute move was in favor of Galo, with Rony almost celebrating. Atlético was successful for much of the initial stage, with individual markings and long balls, managing to contain the Rubro-Negro's momentum. As the minutes passed, Flamengo was gaining more space. The controversy came after a foul by Fausto Vera on Plata. It was a penalty and turned into a foul outside the area, but without a red card. Flamengo went for the pressure before the break - and again complained about Ramon Abatti Abel. Galo, on the other hand, had a great chance on the counter-attack, but Hulk preferred to pass. Fla lethal in the air The "start" of the second half was a truncated game with little inspiration from both sides. Flamengo had more possession and volume. But continued to find difficulty against good marking. Then Luiz Araújo took a "hand" free kick and Léo Ortiz scored his fourth goal in the air this season (30'). The sequence was of unsuccessful attempts from both sides. 📊 Table and schedule 📅 With one less game, Flamengo went to 36 points. Leaving Cruzeiro (34) behind. Atlético - defeated for the third round in a row - remains with 20. It's the 13th with 15 matches played. Both will face each other again on Thursday (31) and once again at Maracanã. It will be the first leg of the round of 16 of the Brazil Cup. The return will be the following Wednesday (6) and at Arena MRV. The next commitment of the duo for BR-25 will be on Sunday (3). Rubro-Negro will visit Ceará at Castelão. While CAM will host Red Bull Bragantino. This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence.
