RB Bragantino Edges Out Botafogo in Tense Encounter in Bragança Paulista
RB Bragantino secured a 1-0 victory over Botafogo in a thrilling match at Estádio Nabi Abi Chedid in Bragança Paulista, São Paulo, on April 12th, 2025. This Serie A clash, the third round of the regular season, saw Bragantino triumph despite a lower possession rate (38%). Eduardo Sasha’s early goal in the 5th minute, assisted by Jhon Jhon, proved to be the difference-maker.
The game was a fiercely contested affair, with a high number of fouls committed by both teams (18 by Bragantino and 11 by Botafogo). Discipline was also a factor, with Bragantino receiving three yellow cards (Jhon Jhon, Cleiton, and I. Pitta) and Botafogo two (Marlon Freitas and Gregore). Botafogo controlled possession (62%), but lacked the cutting edge in front of goal, managing only 2 shots on target compared to Bragantino’s 4. Despite a significant advantage in corner kicks (7 to 3), Botafogo’s inability to convert chances cost them dearly. Brazilian referee Anderson Daronco officiated the match.
