Atletico Madrid Vs Botafogo: Atleti바카라�s 1-0 Triumph Falls Short As Fogao Reach Last 16

Botafogo secured a place in the Club World Cup last 16 despite a 1-0 defeat to Atletico Madrid, who needed a three-goal win to qualify. Diego Simeone바카라�s side struggled to break down a disciplined Botafogo defence for most of the match. After a cagey first half, Antoine Griezmann was brought on to inject some urgency and almost delivered instantly, hitting the post from a tight angle. Atletico finally broke through in the dying minutes, with Griezmann slotting home from inside the box, but it proved too late. While Atleti bow out, Botafogo march on to face the winners of Group A in the knockout stage.
