Events

Match Events

  • 0' And we are off! Botafogo FR vs SE Palmeiras — let the football do the talking.
  • 5' Matheus Martins has been relatively quiet despite scoring 15 goals in his last 404 appearances.
  • 10' SE Palmeiras seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
