As we mentioned, Botafogo continues to show excellent play in this 2023 Brasileirao season. On this occasion, their victim was Internacional, a team that started the season well but has given much to be desired in the last few rounds due to their irregular performances.
The match was very interesting from start to finish. Internacional took a 1-0 lead thanks to Maurício’s goal in the 18th minute, which also boosted the team and generated other clear scoring chances.

Finally, the match between Flamengo and São Paulo ended in a draw (1-1) after both teams could not beat the opposing goalkeepers more than once.
This was another of the highlights of this 19th matchday of the Brasileirão, as both teams have a strong lineup of players besides having great popularity in Brazilian soccer.
The match started a bit slow, with both teams trying to hurt their opponents without neglecting the defensive zone. However, in the 38th minute, the experienced Lucas Moura scored 1-0 in favor of São Paulo. From then on, the visitors seemed to lower their arms, as they did not focus on scoring another goal.
Flamengo tried their best to equalize the scoreboard in the second half, but São Paulo goalkeeper Jandrei prevented practically all the rival approaches. When everything seemed to indicate that it would be a victory for the visiting team, Alan Franco made a mistake in São Paulo’s defense, which led to a penalty that Pedro Guilherme dos Santos converted in minute 90+6 to make the score 1-1.
