Part 4/8:
The decision by Artur Jorge to retain his most skilled players on the field, rather than shifting tactics after the early expulsion, speaks volumes about his confident management style and trust in his team. Those decisions validated themselves remarkably, as the players showed resilience and tenacity, traits that have eluded the club for many years.

The supporters have not only applauded the players but have also directed gratitude toward club owner John Textor. In just two years, Textor has orchestrated a remarkable transformation at Botafogo, leading them to their first Copa Libertadores title. His vision, coupled with significant player acquisitions, such as Luiz Henrique and Almada, has redefined the club’s trajectory.
