00:00Liga de Quito against Sao Paulo in the Commonwealth Libertadores quarter-finals.

00:10It's the first leg. The identity of one of our semi-finals is on the line and we are

00:18underway. Liga de Quito host Sao Paulo in this first leg of the Libertadores quarter-finals.

00:24And roll forward. Immediately putting Sao Paulo under pressure. It's cleared away.

00:34There's a chance for free kick for Sao Paulo. Enzo Diaz looks like he's going to take.

00:39Here's Diaz. Good delivery in to very nearly get on the end of it. Luciano first and then I think

00:46Federesi arriving just behind him. Sao Paulo moving it well.

00:54Passing behind for Rigoni. Rigoni. A wild first-time effort. Whether it was a cross or a shot.

01:06Nicely worked and Rigoni getting into some nice positions. Onsides he makes that little run in behind.

01:12Needed to get his foot around it and bring it back across the face of goal.

01:15To receive the ball again. His first instinct really is going forward. This time he grips a great ball on the top of him.

01:22It is! Liga de Quito leads! And it's a fabulous goal!

01:27The Rodrigo Paz Delgado erupts!

01:36Los Alibos strike first with a goal of genuine quality.

01:48Ajala, the architect. But look at the run from Ramirez. He's on the move early. Times it beautifully. The pass

02:00weight into perfection. And it's not a bad finish either.

02:12Cedric Suarez. Undone by the run of Brian Ramirez.

02:16Cedric Suarez. And once I'm in.

02:22Medina turns. He's clearly being pulled back by Abolola. And that will be a freak and a yellow card.

02:29Really don't think Robert Abolola can have many.

02:32But once he's turned by Medina, it's very apparent.

02:42Franco steps in decisively for Sao Pari. Then gives the ball away.

02:47Straight to Quintero. Quintero shoots.

02:50An awkward one for Rafael, but he gets behind the ball. Makes the stop.

02:54Cross the surface.

02:55Again, Aboleda. Very unhappy. Really. He should have been where he wants him to be for that forward pass.

03:06Al Palo have made inroads instead down the left. Enzo Diaz will chase this one. Diaz digs out the cross.

03:11Luciano!

03:18Luciano's acrobatic volley goes wide in the post.

03:25Back to Rigaudi.

03:32Rigaudi's layoff. Very, very poor.

03:35Straight out of play. And the half-time whistle blows.

03:37With that misplaced pass.

03:42Liga de Quito 1, Sao Paulo 0 at the break.

03:45Brian Ramirez's goal.

03:48After a quarter of an hour.

03:55Now, with the change, we're back underway. It's Liga de Quito 1.

03:59Sao Paulo 0. 45 minutes to remain in this first leg.

04:04And we meet again in a week's time at the Morambi to decide which team will be going through.

04:10Marcos Antonio.

04:14It's the channel. Rigaudi. Flag stays down. Rigaudi.

04:16We got some of it.

04:17Luciano's there. Luciano around the goalkeeper.

04:19Luciano blocked on the...

04:21Almost on the line. A flag for offside, I think, has gone up.

04:26Big appeal for a handball for Luciano. I think it would have been offside anyway.

04:30But Rigaudi made the initial run. And Luciano indeed was offside as that pass came in from Rigaudi.

04:40It's a great bit of the...

04:41Diaz.

04:45Pablo Maia. A little disguised pass.

04:47Luciano's inside the box. Onside.

04:52And it's a good save in space. And I think you realise that he's onside.

04:56And he is onside. It's a lovely little disguised pass.

05:05Ends up rushing the shot somewhat. And it's a comfortable enough save over River Plate.

05:11The women's there will play the women's of this one in the semis.

05:15For the final.

05:17On November 29th. As Rigaudi flashes a shot over the top of the crossbar.

05:23Location of this year's final.

05:26At the end of November.

05:36Hooster changes. A little under 20 minutes of normal time remaining.

05:40Sao Paulo still hope to get something. It's going to be a yellow card shown here.

05:46For Molino Quinonez.

05:52It is indeed. Quinonez saw him run in. It's flashed up there on the graphic.

05:56But it is. The left back.

06:00A lively introduction from the pair.

06:05Shot that comes in. That wasn't far away.

06:07Touches it really well. Again, there's a peel. There's a little touch on the way.

06:17And there was a touch. The player goes up. Certainly the last defender for a header.

06:21Pull back on the shirt there. But Boreda gets away regardless. Comes back onto his right foot.

06:27There's a bit of space. He's still going. Still going.

06:30The flexed over the top.

06:33Has the beating of Ajala for Pace.

06:35Having come inside. Then he had to come inside.

06:46Given away cheaply. Chance maybe.

06:48Not making the most. But the shot comes in. It's number two.

06:53Against the run of play. And Liga de Quito. Double their advantage.

07:00It's Michael Estrada. The substitute.

07:05Pounces on an error.

07:07What Michael Estrada has done.

07:10On the bench.

07:12Cabeza favoured to come on for Medina.

07:15Picks up an injury himself.

07:19That thrusts Estrada into the action.

07:24And this was his moment.

07:27First time finish.

07:28Whipped past Rafael.

07:33And in the second half.

07:34Where it looked as though the 1-0 scoreline.

07:37Fereda.

07:40Marcus Antonio back to Fereda.

07:42Good space for the shoot.

07:43And it's a shot that goes straight at the keeper.

07:50Given Sao Paulo.

07:51Lovely interplay.

08:09Wonderful build-up.

08:10Saved by the goalkeeper.

08:13Great stop from Vazje.

08:15That'll be a foul.

08:16Of brilliance from the Brazilians.

08:18And then Crespo may be regretting not starting.

08:31Gabriel Dijamil is going to get booked.

08:33It feels as though the wall is more than 10 yards away.

08:36The goal for Estrada holds off his man.

08:48Estrada.

08:49No whistle.

08:49Estrada.

08:51Forces a save from Rafael.

08:53And as the full-time whistle goes.

08:58Not only is the unbeaten record intact.

09:02But the Ecuadorians take a 2-0 lead to Brazil next week.

09:06Brian Ramirez and Michael Estrada with the goals that give Liga the key top.

09:11The sizeable advantage ahead of next week's second leg.

09:14It was a poor performance in truth from Sao Paulo who looked like a side missing.

09:28Certainly attacking players the likes of Andre Silva who could have perhaps made a difference.

09:33But even without those players, as they will be without them again next week,

09:39they must find a way to score.

09:41And they know they'll have to find, at the very least, two.

09:46Even if they're only going to need penalties once again to progress in this year's Libertadores.

09:50Big night.
