Leader of the Brazilian Championship since the third round, Botafogo is experiencing its biggest crisis in the competition. If at one point the Rio team had more than a 90% chance of winning the title and a 13 point advantage over second place, now they are tied with Palmeiras and need to recover their emotions to continue in the dispute (see the Brasileirão table) . ❓But what happened to Fogão? Launch! decided to find the reasons for failure. She asked her social media followers for help – and had more than a thousand suggestions in an hour. And now he tries to explain Glorioso's 6-point drop in performance. ➡️ Everything about Fogão is now on WhatsApp. Follow our new Lance channel! Botafogo ⚽ REPLACEMENT OF LUÍS CASTRO Changes in technical leadership decided the collapse of the team's production in the Brasileirão. With Luís Castro, Botafogo won 83.3% of the points won (30 out of a possible 36) and climbed the table. After Castro left Al-Nassr in Saudi Arabia, stability became precarious. There are just 29 points in 57 games played (50.87%). The team lost its playing standard and was unable to communicate with the substitutes. ⚽ ADVENTURE BRUNO LAGE Hired to replace Luís Castro, Bruno Lage changed Glorioso's style of play, opting for a more vertical attack. The format is different from its predecessor, prioritizing short plays and maintaining ball possession. In the 16 races ahead of the Rio team, Lage managed just five victories and saw the lead difference disappear. Not ‘buying’ the new coach’s proposal, the players reacted professionally and put their heads on the line. The management agreed and dismissed the Portuguese. ⚽ YOU WILL NOT WIN THE CHAMPION! Lúcio Flávio, a former player but with no experience in leading teams, took the lead. ‘Interimly’, the coach could not handle the pressure of leadership, and the team lost all points advantage. Botafogo's psychological moment is the worst in the competition and it lacks an experienced leader to face it and propose tactical solutions. ⚽PERFORMANCE AT NILTAN Botafogo's poor performance at home in this turnaround is another factor. With a historic defeat to Palmeiras at home, the team reached a run of five games without winning at the Nilton Santos stadium. In the first round, the success rate was 100%, with ten victories. In this second half of the competition the situation was completely different. There are six home games so far, winning only one – against Bahia, 3-0. In addition, three defeats and two draws. ⚽ LOW PRODUCTION OF KEY PLAYERS Botafogo's highlights in the first round, Tiquinho Soares and Eduardo grew considerably in their performances in the second half against Brasileirão. The competition's top scorer, Tiquinho has played just three games since injuring his knee in August - and was signed by Paulinho, who arrived from Atlético-MG. Eduardo, the team's 'engine', can no longer dictate the pace of the midfield and has scored just three goals in the last fifteen rounds (one goal and two assists). ⚽ PSYCHOLOGICAL Coach changes, refereeing errors, injuries, all these things hindered Botafogo throughout the season. However, emotional insecurity seems to be the main problem. The team with the best first round in the history of the Brasileirão gave way to a “headless” team that was unable to overcome adversity. The decadence began with a defeat to Flamengo, the first of Niltão's “tapetinho”. But the recovery is not happening. After the match, the “fat” was finalized and the championship opened again. + BOTAFOGO Follow Lance! on G o o g l e News Most read 1 Off the field Vini Jr.'s attitude towards Mbappé for Real Madrid draws attention on the web 2 Off the field Brasileirão: check title chances after Botafogo's draw and Palmeiras' victory 3 Off the field Fans of Botafogo blames partial defeat: 'It calls failure' 4 Launch!
