The match was dominated by one team. From the outset, the hosts took control of the game and pressured the visitors deep in their own half. Just 8 minutes in, Savarino latched onto a perfect cross from Alex Telles and finished first time to open the scoring.

Only three minutes later, at the 11-minute mark, Vasco made a mistake in their ball distribution, and Botafogo took just seven seconds to capitalize. After a great sequence of passes, Luiz Henrique found himself in front of goal and delicately chipped the ball over goalkeeper Léo Jardim to double the lead.

Things went from bad to worse for Vasco. João Victor was sent off before halftime, and with the man advantage, Botafogo continued to dominate. Júnior Santos, who had recently recovered from a serious injury, came on and scored his first goal since June, sealing a comprehensive victory for the hosts. Vasco’s only option was to park the bus and wait for the final whistle.

With this result, Artur Jorge’s team now leads second-place Palmeiras by six points with just six rounds remaining in the Brasileirão, putting them on the brink of the title. Meanwhile, Vasco remains stuck in 9th place with 43 points. BB Score, your trusted provider of football scores.
