اینترناسیونال مقابل بوتافوگو

Internacional beat Botafogo 3-0 at the Beira-Rio on Saturday and, for the moment at least, left the relegation zone. They had started round 32 on 32 points and in the bottom four. Two goals before the break did most of the work. Matheus Bahia opened the scoring in the 32nd minute. Braian Aguirre crossed from the right, Marçal failed to clear and Bahia put away the rebound. Ten minutes later Juninho made it two. A corner led to a shot from Maripán, it was blocked, and Juninho finished the loose ball. Aguirre had a goal ruled out early in the second half for a foul at the start of the move. Bernabei added the third in the 21st minute of the second half. Alan Patrick started the counter, Alerrandro went through and squared it, and Bernabei tapped into an empty net. Marçal hit the bar with a volley for the visitors, and Álvaro Montoro picked up his third yellow and will miss the game against Remo. Internacional are 16th on 35 points, though Corinthians could still pull them back into the bottom four. Botafogo stay 11th on 39 points. Tite said his side played well below its level, and the club has won one of five league games under him.
