With the defeat, the Rio de Janeiro team was in fourth position with 63 points. With the same score, but a better goal difference, Galo now stands, and after this away win they join the group of clubs that were three points behind Palmeiras.

Botafogo does not break the curse

The curse seemed to be broken with a penalty goal from Tiquinho Soares in the sixth minute of added time of the second half, with the curtains of the match already almost closed. However, the bad streak continued and Edu equalized three minutes later, in a match in which both finished with 10 men.

Gremio and Bragantino will have their chances of getting within four points of Palmeiras if they win their respective matches corresponding to matchday 36.
