Carlos Alberto fights to consolidate a good streak and become Botafogo's asset in the Carioca semifinals
Botafogo's expectations upon entering the final phase of the Campeonato Carioca may have gained new momentum. Carlos Alberto performed well under the command of Luis Castro and showed that he can be an escape valve on the right wing. In the 2-0 victory over Reisend, last Sunday (5), the 20-year-old player scored his first goal with the black and white shirt. His recovery comes at a challenging time for Alvinegro. The team faces Portugal on Wednesday (8) in a decisive game for post-game aspirations. And, from his performances at Kleber Andrade, Carlos Alberto discovered the resourcefulness that grew on the field.

However, his run was interrupted by injuries. Returning to the field, the young man caught the attention of Luis Castro. Carlos Alberto became a dangerous substitute for Botafogo in their 0-1 defeat to Flamengo. Even amid Mané Garrincha's chaotic performance, the 20-year-old showed character with explosiveness and was a good option for exchanging passes. However, when he had the chance to start, his performance fluctuated in the 1-1 draw with Sergipe in the Copa do Brasil. There was a new vote of confidence in Resende and, this time, Carlos Alberto is keeping an eye on the fans. Against Reisende, the 20-year-old managed to combine offensive impetus with the success of the match. Carlos Alberto, who showed more courage, took advantage of a pass from Matheus Nascimento to finish off the Botafogo attacker. However, the winger knows that a long challenge awaits him. Botafogo suffered some losses in the final stage and, above all, needed a performance that would delight the fans and guarantee the team's place in the Rio semi-finals. Even with so many challenges, Carlos Alberto managed to overcome his anxiety to start a strong sequence of victories at Alvinegro under the command of Luis Castro. Follow Lance!
