Entertaining game between Botafogo and Fluminense last night, which i managed to catch most of.

Seedorf appeared in the second half and helped set up the equaliser for Botafogo.

I love the fact Seedorf can still make an impact!!

Yeah it's good. He's the type of player who doesn't seem to deteriorate as he gets older.

Came on and added some much needed control and organisation to their attack.

Yes, we just need David Beckham signing at Flamengo

Hat-trick from Seedorf last night as Botafogo recovered from 1-0 down to come back to win 3-1 v Macae.

Botafogo is definitively doing a good campaign, they kept their last year trainer and have a competitive team. Should be a good surprise for the final phase ..

Have you seen that Doni has joined "the other" Botofogo!!!

Yeah i noticed that. The BBC reported it as if he'd joined Botafogo FR, which confused me as they already have a good keeper in Jefferson.

[Fred]

Yes, it seems he had heart problems, right?

[Manneringo]

I think some of the Liverpool staff had head problems for not playing him more!
