Doha, Qatar: Mexico's Pachuca emerged victorious with a commanding 3-0 win over Brazil's Botafogo, securing the prestigious Derby of the Americas title at Stadium 974 on Wednesday. 

The match saw Oussama Idrissi set the tone with a spectacular goal just five minutes into the second half, followed by Nelson Deossa who extended Pachuca's lead in the 66th minute. Salomon Rondon capped off the impressive performance with a third goal in the 80th minute, solidifying the team's dominance.

Despite creating numerous chances, Botafogo struggled to find the net, ultimately falling short in their execution. 

Looking ahead, Pachuca is set to face Egypt's Al Ahly in the FIFA Challenger Cup this Saturday at the same venue, with the winners moving on to face European champions Real Madrid in the highly anticipated FIFA Intercontinental Cup at Lusail Stadium next Wednesday.
