In an assertive showing, Santos SP Women emerged victorious over Botafogo RJ Women with a convincing 3-1 win. The home team's early goal at the 15:41 mark set the tone, establishing control from the onset. Santos' efficient use of possession was highlighted by their ability to convert limited opportunities into goals, underscoring the potency of their attacking setup. In contrast, Botafogo's struggle to find the back of the net despite winning the corner kick battle (9 to Santos' 3) was a critical difference in their performance.

The second half saw Santos intensifying their lead with two quick, successive goals, indicating superior endurance and offensive coordination. A standout aspect of their gameplay was their clinical finishing, with three of their shots resulting in goals. On the other hand, although Botafogo managed to respond quickly with a goal at 1:26:57, it proved too little, too late. Their offensive strategy was hampered by the inability to capitalize on set pieces and maintain composure to exploit the defensive lapses from Santos.

Both teams exhibited discipline in a relatively clean match, each receiving one yellow card in the first half. However, the home team's discipline in maintaining defensive shape was evident, successfully trapping Botafogo's forwards in offside positions thrice compared to their single offside. This defensive compactness, coupled with successful execution upfront, emphasized the contrast in the teams' performances. Santos' ability to execute a disciplined game plan while exploiting gaps in Botafogo's defense was instrumental in achieving this decisive victory.
