With 10 minutes into the second-half in the match between Botafogo and Naútico, the ex-São Paulo defender Alex decided to pass the ball to keeper Júlio César. Alex forgot he no longer plays with Rogério Ceni, and saw Júlio César concede probably the most bizarre goal in the season.

In good brazilian portuguese, goalies who concede goals like this take/swallow a ”frango,” or chicken. Luckly, Botafogo won and still is the leader.
