"To win a victory over (someone)" in the normal sense means to defeat, vanquish, beat, or triumph.
e.g. "Brazil won a victory over Australia in the FIFA World Cup."
Metaphorically, it can mean to succeed in spite of adversity or opposition.
e.g. "He won a victory over cancer, and has been in remission for several years."
