Rio De Janeiro, April 10 -- Arthur Cabral scored a second-half equalizer to earn Botafogoa 1-1 home draw with Caracas FC in their opening Copa Sudamericana group match.
Wilfred Correa gave the visitors the lead in the 43rd minute when he slotted the ball into the far corner after Botafogo's defense failed to deal with a corner on Thursday.
Cabral put the Brazilian side on level terms just after the interval, pouncing on a loose ball and bundling home from the edge of the six-yard box.
Botafogo controlled over 70 percent of possession and completed more than twice as many passes as its opponent but lacked sharpness in attack.
