Brazilian and South American champions Botafogo survived a late onslaught to beat MLS side Seattle Sounders 2-1 in their Group B opener of the Club World Cup at Lumen Field on Sunday. First-half headers from Jair Cunha and Igor Jesus gave the visitors a deserved lead but a second-half deflected effort from Cristian Roldan handed the hosts a lifeline.

More than 1,000 fans showed up on the waterfront to set a Guinness record for most people receiving a soccer lesson prior to the Sounders-Botafogo match.
