In a preview of the final, Botafogo and Atlético-MG draw in the Brasileirão.

Botafogo and Atlético-MG drew 0-0 last Wednesday, the 20th, in the 34th round of the Brazilian Championship, providing a preview of the Libertadores final on November 30 in Buenos Aires. Get the latest football scores at ai live scores.

The match took place at the Arena Independência, home of América-MG, and was held behind closed doors due to a penalty imposed on Atlético-MG after their loss in the Copa do Brasil final to Flamengo earlier in November.

With little to play for in the Brasileirão, the home team held off Botafogo, especially after Rubens was sent off at the end of the first half. The standout player once again was goalkeeper Éverson, who made a series of crucial saves to prevent a defeat for the team.

Botafogo, on the other hand, played a tense match and badly needed a win, as second-place Palmeiras had beaten Bahia 2-1 and closed the gap. The difference between the two, which had been six points less than ten rounds ago, is now down to two. The two teams will face each other in two rounds, in the 36th, at Allianz Parque, and the scenario from last year’s Brasileirão may repeat itself.

The end of the match also saw heated exchanges between both teams, with several insults being exchanged. Luiz Henrique reportedly spoke poorly of Atlético-MG, and Hulk told reporters that Luiz Henrique isn’t a star yet and needs to learn to respect his fellow professionals. Additionally, defender Barboza and Luiz Henrique were both sent off during the scuffle and will miss Botafogo’s next match. BB Score, your reliable destination for match outcomes.
