00:00And away we go.

00:10League leaders in Brazil, Botafogo, Sampaolo in fifth.

00:17That counts for nothing right now.

00:21This should be a really fascinating night, John.

00:23I think if you are Botafogo, you've got to come out here tonight and not kill the tie.

00:29You've really got to be thinking this is an opportunity to win the game and go to Sampaolo

00:34next week with a healthy lead on their way to the semi-final.

00:38A footrace, easy claim for John, a giant keeper, 1.96m for one of his centres, an international.

00:48Here come Botafogo, just finding the spaces.

00:52Luiz Henrique favours that left foot of his, jinks his way through, clever little back

00:56heel from him, Botafogo, so, so close to the opener.

01:04Almada in the end with the finish, the Argentine, well that was sweet.

01:10Comes to him quickly, John.

01:11You know, I think he's got to do a little bit better, a player of his quality, yes,

01:15it's zipped into his feet, he's got to kind of sort his feet out here, you can see, but

01:19nonetheless with his instep.

01:20If he can get a nil-nil tonight, they'll say it's absolutely worth it.

01:25But as you've been saying, it can go pear-shaped very, very quickly, and those seconds they've

01:31gained, Manu Vicino, away, drills it across the area.

01:36Vicino's causing all sorts of problems down his right-hand flank.

01:41Skins Wellington with ease.

01:43That needed a touch from either shirt and it might have just pinged into the back of

01:48the net.

01:54Get it closer though, aren't they?

01:57Either side playing a really high press, but that's nicely won.

02:04And a second bite of a cherry perhaps, in fights, and a tag, that's good defending.

02:14The option to go short.

02:18Straight down the centre, it sails over the net.

02:23Pastos.

02:25Every set-piece that Samphala survived, a little bit of additional confidence, John.

02:3027 minutes in and a couple of glimmers, haven't they?

02:35Makes him a little bit easier to defend against.

02:43Right in front of the assistants, going to be our first card of the night.

02:49I'd like to see that one again, John.

02:51Hasn't been a really dirty game, has it?

02:53He's a bit frustrated with himself more than anything.

02:56Yeah, when the studs go over the opposition boot like that.

02:59Always asking the referee to make a decision.

03:02Again, the right, it's hardly, the foot wasn't really raised.

03:07It's almost scraped.

03:08If you like your defensive-minded football, Samphala are the ones for you at the moment.

03:16Luis Zanjiki.

03:18Plays it off to his left.

03:20Now, what can Boccefogo do here?

03:22There's the ancestor of the woodwork!

03:24And the follow-up goes wide!

03:28Play-off from Luis Zanjiki.

03:34I mean, Igor Jesus on the follow-up.

03:37Just couldn't keep it down, could he?

03:46And this is the up-chance again!

03:49Another time off the crossbar.

03:53What have they got to do to score?

03:55Boccefogo, the flag has come up.

03:58Our official not really helping this time.

04:06I think they were right.

04:07Those aerial deliveries have been dealt with by Samphala.

04:10Maybe Boccefogo playing the percentages.

04:13Maybe Boccefogo playing the percentages.

04:16Better on the floor.

04:18Squeezed in!

04:19Just wide!

04:22Igor Jesus again.

04:28Couldn't quite get the angle.

04:37Spot on there, John.

04:38I mean, how much better do Boccefogo look

04:40when they start to play those little triangles

04:42in and around the penalty area?

04:43That's where Samphala can't deal with them.

04:45Just unstitch that line.

04:47You can see exactly what...

04:49Now William.

04:53Caleri again just has it nicked away.

04:55Now spaces down that left-hand channel.

04:59Defenders backing off.

05:01And this one's dinked in, but wide yet again.

05:04Amada causing all sorts of problems.

05:07From that perspective, I think Samphala have got to be a bit cleverer.

05:09They've got to know what's coming here.

05:12Amada, I think you've just got to test the goalkeeper.

05:15You know, too many of these tonight so far for Boccefogo

05:19where it's not a bad effort on goal,

05:21but you've got to ask the question of the goalkeeper.

05:27Maybe that's what's required.

05:28Get more bodies forward from the back.

05:31Can't afford to be too exposed, though.

05:33Vicino again.

05:35That's clever.

05:38And it sails well off a target.

05:40That was a golden chance.

05:45Blazed over, but these are the opportunities

05:47where Samphala have been very fortunate

05:49and Boccefogo really have to hit the target.

05:51He's eight yards out.

05:52You've got to make the goalkeeper work.

05:53I'm not saying you have to score from that position

05:55on your weaker foot, but you just...

05:58Ungainly at times.

05:59Almost a yard off the pace.

06:01Well, it was a ripple of applause

06:03around the Nilton Santos.

06:07Interesting first half of football for Boccefogo

06:10with several opportunities,

06:12but just couldn't put it in the back of the net

06:14and then it was very slow.

06:17Away we go here then.

06:18Boccefogo in their black and white shirts.

06:20Samphala in white, red and black

06:22with Riccolo Paolista scoreless.

06:24Boccefogo, can we say, really,

06:26really, really, really good?

06:28Paolista scoreless.

06:29Boccefogo, can we say, running the show

06:31in the first half?

06:34Yeah, I think they did run the show, John.

06:36I think they dominated.

06:38Looking very comfortable.

06:39It's going to be Alex Tellez

06:41with the delivery.

06:43Curls it in.

06:45Momentarity causes problems

06:46and again from close range it heads over.

06:50Barboza at the Argentine.

06:52The corner for Boccefogo.

06:58Pichinho.

07:00Drills it in low.

07:02That's a mistake.

07:04A chance here.

07:05Luiz Henrique again

07:06picks his way through

07:07and as they did in the first half

07:09they get a shot on target.

07:11It's only their second.

07:12It means there's not a lot going on.

07:14Can Samphala change that now?

07:16I think they're slightly more adventurous

07:18in the second period.

07:20They need to come out and play

07:21a little bit more football.

07:22We know what they can do, Samphala.

07:24Momentarily almost dropped

07:26for Igor Jesus.

07:31And they pick up the pace

07:32and again spills it to Kieper

07:34but every shot they've managed to...

07:37Things getting desperate

07:38when the likes of Marlon Freitas

07:40are having pot shots from midfield

07:42with respect to the Boccefogo captain.

07:46But certainly the front-runners

07:47haven't really done a lot.

07:50Luciano, well, it's a card out here.

07:53Now he comes in, shows the studs.

07:56Yeah, steams in.

07:59A few years ago

08:00might have got away with that.

08:03As the studs go up

08:04albeit they're only

08:05eight inches above the ground.

08:08It's good for trouble

08:09to the wider point.

08:15Now Samphala again

08:16with bodies inside the area

08:18just in the loose ball

08:19and it's in.

08:20Again with bodies inside the area

08:22just in the loose ball

08:23and chance for them.

08:25It's Gustavo

08:26straight at John

08:27but Samphala

08:29being a bit more progressive

08:31and you have to say

08:32it's Alde looking.

08:34That's a team shot

08:35in the end, isn't it?

08:36It's a big chance.

08:37They had Alde.

08:38It's a big chance.

08:39Simple as that.

08:41It's more of a game now

08:43but there's only 15 minutes

08:44or so left

08:45and you can see

08:48maybe Samphala snatching it

08:49there's a chance for them.

08:51Caleri down the centre

08:53should be absolutely furious

08:54with himself.

08:56Well

08:57there's absolutely nothing

08:58to smile about

09:00from Jonathan Cagliari's

09:01perspective here.

09:02The cross

09:03is on a plate for him

09:05John

09:06beautifully onto that

09:08It's taken a while

09:09but this game's come to life.

09:13Armada nice little turn

09:14from him as he got

09:15the end product

09:16it's a deflected ball

09:17it forces

09:18Rafael into the stop

09:19for the first time tonight.

09:25Inners forward

09:26by their supporters

09:28are we going to see a goal?

09:30Machin's now away from one

09:32could be the moment

09:33here

09:34it can't be.

09:37He caught it John

09:38in terms of the quality

09:39he's got though

09:40you suddenly see

09:41going from second

09:42to fourth gear

09:43so quickly

09:44drops the shoulder

09:45and the angle's

09:46really tight

09:48proves to be prohibitive

09:49in the end

09:51look at this

09:53leaves his man for dead

09:54doesn't he?

09:55It's a great save actually

09:56yeah

09:57two footed

09:59able to go both ways

10:02finally

10:03Rafael's had to make

10:04two good stops

10:05not sure

10:06how much he knew about that one

10:07came off the inside

10:08of the thigh

10:09but did the job

10:10I think the Sap Alan

10:11will be pleased with this result

10:12nil-nil

10:13away from home

10:14against Portofogo

10:15great result really

10:16but for Portofogo

10:17I don't think there's any

10:18real need

10:19to panic

10:20you know

10:21I think they're going to

10:22know Sap Alan

10:23are going to come out

10:24and Portofogo will be able

10:25to pick them off

10:26on the break hopefully

10:27well

10:28complete

10:29they've tried it

10:30but again

10:31big name Sao Paulo

10:32you might expect

10:33a little bit more

10:34of the history

10:35tradition of them

10:38Club World Cup
