Inter Concedes a Late Draw to Remo but Escapes the Brasileirão's Bottom Four
WHAT A STRETCH! INTER DRAWS AT BEIRA-RIO AND THE WINLESS STREAK CONTINUES!
Monday brought yet another blow to Colorado fans and to those who bet on Internacional. In the 23rd round of the Brasileirão, the home team could not break the 1-1 deadlock against Remo at Beira-Rio in Porto Alegre. And the news no one wanted to hear? Colorado has now gone SEVEN GAMES WITHOUT A WIN in the competition—a streak that’s very concerning!
The situation is critical: four losses and three draws. Carbonero even found the back of the net for Inter, but Vitor Bueno, in stoppage time, secured a point for the visitors.
The game began with a glimmer of hope. Just three minutes into the first half, Inter opened the scoring! Matheus Bahia sent in a sweet cross from the left, and Carbonero, quick on his feet, fired a low first-time shot past goalkeeper Marcelo Rangel. It looked like the tide was turning!
But the specter of “almost” struck again. In the 26th minute, Alan Patrick delivered a pinpoint pass, leaving Carbonero one-on-one with Remo’s goalkeeper. It was a golden opportunity to extend the lead and seal the game, but the ball stubbornly went out of bounds. A costly mistake that would come back to haunt them!
In the second half, another golden opportunity went down the drain. At the 21-minute mark, after a completely misguided backpass by Tchamba, Calebe beat the defense to the ball. He played a through ball to Carbonero, who burst into the box and, once again, shot wide of Marcelo Rangel’s goal. The No. 23’s “hat trick” of missed chances had the fans pulling their hair out.
And the punishment came at the very last moment! In the 50th minute of the second half, when victory seemed assured, Vitor Bueno unleashed a rocket from a free kick taken from a great distance. The ball deflected off the wall, leaving Matheus Cunha with no chance to make a save and sealing the tie. A goal that was worth a golden point for Remo and a bucket of cold water for Inter, which remains mired in crisis and sinking in the odds!
