What and when was the first brilliant move recorded in modern chess?

This would be based on Chess.com's newest definition of a brilliant move. Not just in chess.com games, in all games.

For reference, Chess.com's latest definition of a brilliant move:

...a Brilliant move is when you find a good piece sacrifice.

There are additional conditions:

  • You should not be in a bad position after a Brilliant move
  • You should not be completely winning even if you hadn't found the move.
    We are also more generous in defining a piece sacrifice for newer players compared to those who are higher-rated.

    Are you asking for someone to dig in Chess.com records to find the first games played after they published their new definition ?

    @bof Chess.com's definition of a brilliant move can be found here: Is there a way to get blunders, mistakes and inaccuracies using Stockfish?

    The definition of a brilliant move (quoting from chess.com since that's the reference chosen) should be edited into the body of the question.
