Botafogo takes advantage of a lightning expulsion and runs over Fortaleza at Castelão

4-0. Another goal from the former Ceará player at Castelão. David Ricardo beat his marker to the spot after a vicious corner kick and headed in a cross to turn the victory into a rout. After the goal, some Fortaleza fans left Castelão just six minutes into the second half.

Substitution... of the linesman. Assistant referee Jorge Eduardo Bernardi tripped on the ball rack and fell awkwardly to the field. Feeling pain in his shoulder from the nasty fall, the linesman was treated and had to be replaced by the fourth official, Lucas Guimarães Horn.

5-0. As the lights went out, Matheus Martins received the ball on the left, cut inside and struck a low shot, hitting the edge of the net to make it 5-0 for Botafogo.
