Rio De Janeiro, May 3 -- Relegation-threatened Remo scored twice in the last 30 minutes, recovering from a goal down to beat Botafogo 2-1 in Brazil's Serie A.

Venezuelan defender Nahuel Ferraresi gave Botafogo the lead at Rio's Olympic Stadium by heading in after Alex Telles' corner on Saturday.

Alef Manga put the visitors on level terms when he capitalized on an errant headed clearancefrom Angolan defender Bastos to fire a powerful shot past goalkeeper Neto.

Jaja Silva sealed the win in stoppage time with a low shot that went in after Neto deflected itonto the post.

"My job is to score goals, so I'm happy to have done that tonight," Manga said after the match.
