result, technical details and goals of Brasileirão 2023

In a clash marked by two expulsions, dramatic comebacks and closed doors at Couto Pereira, Coritiba drew 1-1 against Botafogoon Wednesday night (29), for the 36th round of the Brasileirão 2023.

The duel took on incredible contours in the final minutes. Botafogo secured the victory with a penalty goal from Tiquinho Soares, converted in the 50th minute of the second half. Coxa went for the equalizer at 53, with Edu.

The new alviverde coach, Guto Ferreira, watched the match alongside the CEO, Carlos Amodeo, in one of the boxes in the sports square. On the field, the team was led by assistant Guilherme Bossle.

The first stage began with pressure from Botafogo, who still dream of the title and soon tested the young white-thigh goalkeeper, the debutant Pedro Morisco, 19 years old. Eduardo, with a free kick, and Vitor Sá, on the left, demanded good saves from the archer.

Coxa tolerated the Rio team’s offensive and began to balance actions. At 30, Eduardo made a hard foul on Andrey from behind and, after consulting the VAR, he was sent off. With one more, the alviverde team started to dominate the actions.

Diogo Oliveira, at 36, and Marcelino Moreno, at 39, missed good chances. However, at 48, it was left-back Jamerson’s turn to tackle Junior Santos from behind and also receive a red card.

In a mess, Botafogo tried to impose intensity in the final stage. Coxa closed well and looked for counterattacks. At 23, Bianqui saved the visiting goal.

The pressure increased and, in the 50th minute, Kusevic scored a penalty on Luis Henrique. Tiquinho charged and did it. Three minutes later, at lights out, Natanael crossed for Edu to equalize.
