Junior Dos Santos:  Junior Santos scored twice as leaders Botafogo edged nearer to their first Brazilian Serie A title in 28 years with a 2-1 victory at America Mineiro.

Santos gave the visitors the lead when he cut inside two defenders before curling a left-footed shot from the edge of the 18-yard box into the top right corner.

The hosts equalized through Martin Benitez, who played a slick one-two with Gonzalo Mastriani, before tucking a low finish past goalkeeper Matheus Cavichioli in the 39th minute.
