Coach Luiz Felipe Scolari had the help of a player who is shown as a Cruzeiro amulet. With an Airton goal, Raposa won the Botafogo-SP, today (6), at the Santa Cruz stadium, in Ribeirão Preto, and takes off at least provisionally from the Z-4 of the Brazilian Series B Championship.
It was the third victory for Raposa under Felipão, who has achieved an 83% success rate since taking over the star team. In 12 disputed points, “Vovô, que’re on”, added ten. There are already three triumphs [Operário, Paraná e Botafogo-SP] and a tie [Náutico].
The victory brings Raposa up the rankings and now the blue team is in 12th place with 23 points. Botafogo-SP is 19 with 18.
Cruzeiro’s next game is already played this Monday (9), at 8:00 p.m., against Guaraní, in Mineirão. Botafogo-SP visits Confiança, in Batistão, on Tuesday, at 9:30 p.m.
Who got it right: Airton
The forward scored the third goal of the season with the Cruzeiro shirt, the third in a row. The player has been a very important piece with Felipão and scored goals in the matches against Botafogo-SP, Paraná and Náutico.
Who was wrong: Judivan
Ex-Cruzeiro, the forward even tried to move and shoot important chances for Botafogo-SP, but stopped at the marked strength of Cruzeiro’s defensive system. Judivan was a bet by coach Claudinei Oliveira, precisely because of the lack of goals from another forward, Wellington Tanque, who has not scored since September 25, in the defeat of the interior of São Paulo against the CRB.
Game timeline
At 25 minutes into the second half, right-back Cáceres received a pass from Pottker in the penalty area. The winger advanced down the line and crossed on second pole, where Airton headed to make it 1-0.
