Rio – O Botafogo will have a decisive duel with LDU, this Wednesday (8), at Nilton Santos, at 9:30 pm (Brasília time), for the fourth round of the Libertadores group stage. Alvinegro, currently at the bottom of Group D, can take the lead in case of victory.

Coach of the Ecuadorian team, Josep Alcácer put the pressure on Glorioso’s side in a press conference: “As it is the last game at home, Botafogo will leave with the need to add. Due to the squad, they were the favorites in the group, they started badly and now they are in a situation of need. For them it is a decisive game. For us it is important”.

Furthermore, the coach commented on the change in Botafogo’s technical command. Now, for him, the team is “safer defensively” and, in attack, “has become stronger”. “Change is important. In the last few games, of which the team has won five, the team has improved,” he said.

In total, with coach Artur Jorge, Alvinegro won five of eight games played. In the Libertadores, they have three points, one less than this Thursday’s opponent. The leader of Group D is Junior Barranquila, with six.
