Botafogo Defeats PSG 1-0, Tops Club World Cup Group B

Botafogo secured a surprising 1-0 victory over reigning European champions Paris Saint-Germain in the Club World Cup group stage, with Igor Jesus scoring the decisive first-half goal. Despite PSG dominating possession and shots, Botafogo's disciplined defense and goalkeeper John’s two crucial saves kept a clean sheet, frustrating PSG's attempts to score. The result leaves Botafogo leading Group B with six points, complicating the advancement scenarios for PSG and Atletico Madrid, who must win their remaining matches by significant margins to progress. PSG, missing key players rested by coach Luis Enrique, struggled to find their usual fluid play despite multiple shot attempts and a disallowed goal in the second half. Botafogo's win, celebrated by thousands of traveling Brazilian fans, marks one of the most remarkable victories in the club’s history and sets up a dramatic final round in the group stage. PSG remains in a strong position to advance but must overcome challenges in their next match against Seattle Sounders.
