If there is any late goal Botafogo will always sorely remember, it might be the one Palmerias scored against them in the ongoing Club World Cup.
The late goal in extra time against it is that sent the winners flying into to the quarter finals of the Clubs World Cup.
Paulinho came off the bench to score an extra-time winner as Palmeiras overcame Botafogo in an all-Brazilian tie to become the first team through to the quarter-finals of the Club World Cup.
The rivals cancelled each other out in a poor game until former Bayer Leverkusen winger Paulinho cut in from the right and fired a low strike past Botafogo goalkeeper John in the 10th minute of extra time.
Palmeiras, which finished the game with 10 men after a red card to captain Gustavo Gomez, will now face the winners of the last-16 contest between Benfica and Chelsea for a place in the semi-finals.
The tone for the first knockout tie of the new-look tournament was set early as Botafogo centre-back Alexander Barboza clattered into Richard Rios, bringing out the first yellow card of a cagey affair that Palmeiras dominated.
Palmeiras striker Vitor Roque failed to turn in an inviting cross from Joaquin Piquerez after 10 minutes before he had a penalty appeal waved away.
But the closest the Sao Paulo club came to scoring in the first half was in stoppage time when a Rios effort skimmed the roof of the net on its way out.
Chelsea-bound Estevao Willian tested John soon after the restart with a left-footed strike from 25 yards before he had a goal ruled out for offside. Mauricio was then denied by John who tipped over a close-range header to force extra time.
John remained the busier keeper and was forced into a save by Rios early in extra time but there was nothing he could do seconds later when Paulinho scored the winner.
