Match Report
Botafogo and Internacional shared the spoils in a pulsating 2-2 draw at Mané Garrincha in Brasília, with all four goals arriving in a breathless 20-minute spell after the break.
A quiet first half gave way to fireworks. Danilo gave Botafogo the lead in the 54th minute, but Internacional's Johan Carbonero, set up by Alerrandro, leveled almost immediately in the 59th. Cristian Medina restored the advantage at 65 minutes, pouncing after Matheus Martins struck the crossbar. Internacional hit back through Alexander Bernabei, who finished from a corner kick in the 74th to make it 2-2.
The draw keeps Botafogo stuck in ninth place in the Série A table, while Internacional, now sitting 14th, will be relieved to have rescued a point after going behind on two separate occasions.
