00:00Away we go on this night in Ecuador. Joe Malfa with you for the action.

00:07Independiente Del Valle from right to left in the black and blue.

00:10River Plate in their traditional white and red from left to right.

00:14River Plate have an opportunity with a win on the road, as difficult as that may be,

00:21to take a full-on stranglehold of Group B.

00:25Top two teams in each group make it through. Played through by Spinelli.

00:29Here's Rodriguez. It's cut out.

00:34Right back the other way. More River Plate through Sebastián Druzzi.

00:49Over the top, working through. Finding it, Collidio going for goal saved by Villar.

00:55Just given the nature of the table here in Group B.

01:00The draw, not the worst thing.

01:04They have these two sides, at the end of the day, tied.

01:12Now they're both above the line. Played through for Ibarra. Going for goal. Tapped in!

01:18Claudio Spinelli opens the scoring for Independiente!

01:22Their first shot on top.

01:31A big weight off the shoulders of Claudio Spinelli. Watch it unfold again.

01:35It looked like he was clearly onside.

01:39Nothing that they will check here it seems.

01:42Well done by Ibarra to just smash it across the six.

01:47Hope for a deflection produced by a teammate.

01:53Spinelli just signed in January.

01:55It's the 13th team in the career of the 28-year-old.

02:01He's never played more than 29 matches for a club.

02:06That being FC Koper in Slovenia.

02:09Last year, ninth.

02:16All stayed in the whole time, still does.

02:19Space here for Leon Lor.

02:22Doesn't have much support but he has Spinelli making a run down the middle.

02:26Lor looking for him. Spinelli!

02:33Doubles his tally. Doubles the lead.

02:36Independiente up 2-0.

03:08Oh, inch perfect ball.

03:10That's a great look at it from our camera crew.

03:17Here's the shot.

03:19He is a good one.

03:20He's a good one.
