A good goal from Paulinho in the first minutes of the extension gave the pass to the quarterfinals to a more ambitious palmeiras than the Botafogo. The team that put the World Cup up with the unexpected victory against the PSG that harmed Atlético offered its worst version in the four games he has played. The clash had the intensity of a Mata-Mata (tie) between the last two champions of the Copa Libertadores with the additive of being both Brazilians and also being marked over fire by the rivalry of Carioca football and the Paulista. Álex Téllez and Richard Ríos were the first to know that the duel went from ax and chalk.

The mutual knowledge of the Botafogo coach, Renato Paiva, and that of Palmeiras, Abel Ferreira, also added cement to the clash. Hard leg, tobillera fouls and some tip tarascated that stopped the game in excess. If, at the points, the Verdao was winning the first half. The Palmeiras went to look for the Botafogo and he did not have the fluidity, nor the precision, nor the clarity to find the free player who exhibited before the PSG and Atlético. Ferreira had trained his players well.
In that Trincheras football there was hardly room for some flashes of the elusive Estevão and an arrival of Vitor Roque to a center of piqueres that hurried John. In the Botafogo nothing of Igor Jesús, Artur, Savarino and Allan. The second act began reduced from cancheras revolutions. It was cleaner and there emerged the light Estevão. He taught overflow a couple of times. In a coiled left -footed shot, he demanded that John the first great stop of his inspired afternoon. The Valladolid exporter was the best of the Botafogo, splendid in two shots of the Colombian dynamic flying Richard Ríos.
He missed that Ferreira would sit at Estevão, who was in his karma. The boy, of silhouette similar to that of former Madridista Robinho, was masculted curses. Ferreira changed him for Paulinho, who won the game with a very fine maneuver: cutting fend and a tight touch. Only then, with the water around the neck, the Botafogo grew. Vitinho had the draw in a curved pass in Montoro that burst against the side network. It would have been unfair.
