00:02In Buenos Aires, it's River Plate against Carabobo, Argentina against Venezuela, match day two of the 2026 Comibol Sul-Americana,
00:14I'm Joel Richard, your match commentator on this world feed in Group H, then.
00:21As things start, Carabobo are top of the group, River Plate second, with Blooming in third place in the Brazilians,
00:29Bragantino fourth.
00:31Bragantino, Blooming, by the way, play tomorrow evening in Brazil.
00:39Carabobo in their away strip, River Plate in their traditional white shirt with red sash.
00:49As we looked at this before kick-off, if you're just joining us, though, it's a back four for River
00:56Plate with Santiago Beltran in goal.
00:58Back four of Matias Viña, Germán Pesela, Lautaro Rivero and Fabricio Bustos last week in Bolivia.
01:04On the ball now, although he loses out, cheaply to González, Berrios, platter there, just outside the area in what's
01:14a dangerous position.
01:23At the weekend, they have Boca Juniors as their visitors.
01:30High stakes match in the league.
01:53Fletas does really well.
01:56Mesa gets inside.
01:57Opportunity for River Plate.
02:02Good movement from Fletas.
02:07Also from Mesa, who did really well just to arrive late from Fletas.
02:15It's a bit of fortune, real opportunity here for River Plate.
02:18If they can, Quintero, great save by Bruera.
02:21The attack still on.
02:22Freitas was looking for Subiabre.
02:28And Bruera has now been called into action to keep the attack alive, just as all seems to get stuck
02:33behind him.
02:38Just wonder if Quintero couldn't have the pass on there to Subiabre.
02:42However, in that kind of position, you'd always expect Quintero to convert.
03:13It's a late challenge there on the 18-year-old.
03:23The fortune for Carabobo, he seemed to lose that ball with Núñez.
03:27Now it's Ková.
03:30Taken out there by Vinha.
03:35He could be well be in trouble for this.
03:41Completely misses the ball, the Uruguayan, and catches the Venezuelan.
03:46Vinha to Belpran.
03:50Good clearance.
03:58Stopped by Vesela.
04:16That's the end of this first half.
04:20Whistles at the Monument.
04:21They'll tell the story.
04:23You'll do everything you need to know.
04:29And that is the end of the first half.
04:32River Plate and Carabobo.
04:34Goalless, yes.
04:36No goals.
04:38Nil-nil.
04:39This is a great, great result for the Venezuelan side.
04:43Let's see if they can keep it this way for the next 45.
04:47Time for a break.
04:53For the second half in the Sulamericana match day two.
04:58Between River Plate and Carabobo.
05:00Argentina against Venezuela.
05:03I'm Joel Richards.
05:04On the world feed.
05:06With this clash involving, quite possibly,
05:10the main contender
05:12to win the Sulamericana River Plate.
05:15Previous champions of this competition.
05:18Don't decide yet to really find their feet.
05:20And certainly on the first.
05:22From what we saw in the first half,
05:23if you're just joining us,
05:26you didn't miss a great deal.
05:27Just one shot on goal
05:28between the two sides out there.
05:31Confirmation at the top of your screen of the changes.
05:33Galvan and Driussion for Subiabre.
05:37And Castaño.
05:39Opportunities.
05:41Quite possibly
05:42gone for Subiabre.
05:45And Castaño.
05:49The coach did bring in a number of changes
05:51for this match.
05:55Didn't mean that for those players
05:56it was a real opportunity.
05:57Probably one that not taken.
05:59But here is a real opportunity
06:00to start for Freitas.
06:02The youngster.
06:07Who told them of the
06:09opportunity that fell
06:10to the 19-year-old
06:12Joaquin Freitas.
06:13There's three goals
06:14for River Plate.
06:16This is his 11th
06:18to
06:19Guerrero.
06:25Cienese scored three
06:27in the Liberta Lourdes.
06:30It's a steamroller
06:31that way past
06:32a great performance
06:35from Barcelona.
06:37But nonetheless
06:38the feeling is
06:38very much
06:39that it was
06:40at a canter.
06:43And that they are
06:44starting to click.
06:45And we've seen it here.
06:48It's not far from the case
06:49with River Plate.
06:50Pias.
06:51Driving run.
06:52That is what
06:52River Plate wanted.
06:54Driussi.
06:54The star.
06:57The leader.
06:59The goal scorer
07:00for River Plate.
07:04Really out of nowhere.
07:06It's the
07:07driving run
07:09from
07:10Kendri Pias.
07:11And can they build on it?
07:13That's the question.
07:19That run by Pias.
07:22Neither
07:22of the defenders
07:24close to him
07:24want to touch him
07:25on his way through
07:26in trius.
07:31is that goal enough
07:32to lift the mood
07:33lift the performance
07:35levels.
07:48taking goal by
07:50Sebastián Briussi.
07:54He was a late substitute
07:56in the 2014
07:58Sudamericana final
08:00for Dalliardo.
08:03And here's another
08:04opening for Pias.
08:05Should have scored.
08:10Look at the space
08:12they've afforded
08:14Kendri Pias here.
08:15Good first touch
08:17with his
08:18favored right foot.
08:49Good fortune with that
08:50ball falling to
08:51Freitas here.
08:53And to Pias in turn.
08:54Lovely little pass.
08:55Oh, it's off the bar.
08:57Unlucky for River.
09:02And unlucky for Galvan.
09:12Tortolero.
09:16Well, it was going to
09:17take something special.
09:26Scored a couple of
09:27excellent goals.
09:29Tortolero.
09:30This side's top
09:31scorer, in fact.
09:44The referee
09:46brings this game
09:47to an end.
09:49Gesture from
09:50Cordette
09:50to Jester.
09:53The nerves
09:54finally can ease
09:57greeting.
10:02And at the end
10:03of the game,
10:04River Plate made it.
10:05They won 1-0
10:06to Carabobo.
10:07They had to suffer
10:08a little bit.
10:09They struggled.
10:10But Celestia
10:11and the UC
10:13that started the game
10:14in the bench
10:17found a way
10:18to score
10:18the winning goal.
