Vasco Da Gama vs Botafogo Match Report
Vasco da Gama beat Rio de Janeiro rivals Botafogo 2-0 at the Engenhao stadium to remain on the same points but with an inferior goal difference to league leaders Corinthians.Midfielder Fellipe Bastos put Vasco ahead in the 16th minute with a left-footed shot from just outside of the area. Vasco could have doubled their lead in the 34th minute had Diego Souza not squandered a penalty kick.
Defender Dede, who scored twice as Vasco thrashed Universitario de Deportes 5-2 in the Copa Sudamericana last week, put the result beyond Botafogo in the 60th minute when he connected to a left-wing cross with a fine header.
Vasco, who last won the title in the year 2000, are still on track for a rare treble, as after winning the Copa do Brasil earlier in the year, they still have the Brazilian and Copa Sudamericana titles in touching distance.
