Igor Jesus scored the winner in the 36th minute after a midfield turnover. His deflected strike left Gianluigi Donnarumma helpless, giving Botafogo a massive upset win.

Barrios opened the scoring in the 11th minute and struck again in the 55th with a composed half-volley. Axel Witsel added a third, while Seattle managed a consolation goal from Albert Rusnák. The Spanish side’s win puts them right back in the hunt in Group B.
