Match report
Vasco da Gama came from behind to win 2-1 at Estádio Nilton Santos, with David's goal early in the second half proving decisive after Botafogo had pulled one back. The away side led for most of the night and survived two VAR interventions before taking the points.
Vasco da Gama went ahead in the 28th minute when Alan Lescano finished from Bruno Duarte Da Silva's assist to make it 1-0. Bruno Duarte Da Silva was replaced on 42 minutes, and David, who had come on in the 42nd minute, made it 2-0 on 51 minutes after being set up by Facundo Colidio. Botafogo responded in the 60th minute, when Alex Telles scored to make it 2-1. The half-time score was Botafogo 0-1 Vasco da Gama.
Botafogo made one change on 57 minutes, then another on 69, but Vasco da Gama kept control of the scoreline with two changes on 65 minutes and two more on 88. Thiago Mendes had a goal cancelled by VAR on 74 minutes, and Tiquinho Soares also saw an effort ruled out by VAR on 84 minutes. Botafogo were left to chase the game after that, and Adenor Leonardo Bacchi was sent off in the 85th minute before Nahuel Ferraresi was booked in stoppage time.
The numbers backed Vasco da Gama's edge. They had 55% of possession, 434 passes to Botafogo's 364, and more shots, 17 to 11, with 7 on target against 2. Vasco da Gama also won 14 corners to Botafogo's 7, while the home side had more saves, 5 to 1, and Botafogo were caught offside 3 times to Vasco da Gama's 2.
Botafogo had one yellow card, to Nahuel Ferraresi in the 90+7th minute. The red card went to Adenor Leonardo Bacchi in the 85th minute.
