Botafogo defeated Chapecoense 1-0 at the Nilton Santos stadium during the 31st round of the Campeonato Brasileiro. The victory, secured by a seventh-minute header from Tiquinho Soares following a cross by Matheus Martins, marks the first win for the club under manager Tite.

The result provides relief for Botafogo in their struggle against relegation, moving them to 39 points and the 11th or 12th position in the standings, seven points clear of the relegation zone. Conversely, the loss leaves Chapecoense at the bottom of the table with 18 points, facing a high risk of relegation.

Following the match, Tite praised Tiquinho Soares for his professional conduct and presence in the box. Team captain Alex Telles also noted an evolution in the squad's performance despite the narrow margin of victory.
