Botafogo, consisting of ten players, won their first Copa Libertadores versus Mineiro.

Botafogo won their first Copa Libertadores with a 3-1 victory over Atlético Mineiro.


The all-Brazilian fight got off to a rousing start as Artur Jorge's team was reduced to ten men just 31 seconds in after Gregore was sent off for a high lunge on Fausto Vera.

But the Estrela Solitária broke the deadlock with a sweeping finish from Luiz Henrique, who went on to win a penalty later in the half.

Everson's foul on the winger was reviewed by VAR before Alex Telles cemented their dominance with a comfortable penalty kick just before halftime.


Mineiro responded early in the second half, with Eduardo Vargas heading in Hulk's corner from the left, but the 2013 victors were unable to equalize.

Júnior Santos' late goal secured victory for Artur Jorge's team in Buenos Aires' Estadio Monumental, sparking wild celebrations.

Botafogo currently leads the Brasileirão by three points with two games remaining in 2024.
