Keeper error and disputed penalty, lively first half: Botafogo v Vasco

At the Nilton Santos Stadium, Vasco and Botafogo are tied 1 x 1, this Thursday (11), for the second leg of the quarterfinals of the Copa do Brasil.

Since the first leg was 1 x 1, at São Januário, the partial result is leading the decision to penalties.

The Giant of the Hill opened the score after an incredible mistake by Neto.

After a long free kick by Philippe Coutinho, the former Barcelona goalkeeper went with a "soft hand", the ball hit the post, and Nuno Moreira picked up the rebound with his head.

The classic, which was "hot" and with many discussions on the field in the first half, also had controversy, when Joaquín Correa was knocked down by Léo Jardim in the area.

The Vasco players complained that the alvinegro striker "threw himself" at the goalkeeper's exit.

Alex Telles took the penalty very well and made everything equal.

🚦 How it's going

With the result of the first half, the spot in the semifinals is being decided by penalties.

Fluminense, which eliminated Bahia, at Maracanã, last Wednesday (10), is waiting to know the opponent of the next phase.
