In a postponed match of the 12th round of the Brasileirão 2025, which was supposed to take place in June, Botafogo and Mirassol drew 3 x 3 at the Nilton Santos Stadium this Wednesday (17).
The match was that classic “there are things that only happen with Botafogo”.
In the first half, the Glorious played in “2024 mode”: with speed and verticality, they comfortably opened 3 x 0 with goals from Savarino, Chris Ramos, and Montoro.
But after the break, Botafogo returned to the “2025 team”. That is, a slow team disconnected from what was happening on the field.
Mirassol, on the other hand, showed why they are the big sensation of the Brasileirão 2025.
In less than a minute, Chico da Costa scored. Then, defender Jemmes unleashed a powerful shot to “ignite” the match. And finally, Lucas Ramon secured the draw.
The second-best attack in the Brasileirão with 39 goals, only behind Flamengo (47 goals), Mirassol conceded three goals for the first time in the championship.
And Botafogo, in turn, had also never conceded three goals in the Brasileirão.
