00:01And we are underway in Brancagua.
00:03O'Higgins of Chile hosting Uruguay's Boston River.
00:09The home team in their traditional sky blue,
00:12Boston River in their traditional red and green.
00:16Here's the visitors on the attack early.
00:18Franco Perez makes the run forwards,
00:21run away from him, straight through to Carabelli.
00:27O'Higgins have obviously made the brighter start in the group,
00:31having already picked up one win.
00:33Will likely come into this one at home as favourites.
00:38Did qualify third in last year's Chilean top flight,
00:44enough to qualify for the Libertadores,
00:46in which they are now in this competition by virtue of losing to Deportes Tolima
00:51in the third round of the qualifying of the Libertadores this year.
00:58Meanwhile, Boston River, who have never won a top flight in Uruguay.
01:02As I've already said, coming into this one off the back of two wins domestically,
01:09both away from home.
01:11It's going to reach the back post.
01:12Could be a shooting chance onto the right.
01:14Furt, and it's the opener.
01:17Three...
01:20Minutes in, and Sarafiore finds the back of the net.
01:26The cross from the right, skipping its way through to the number seven.
01:34The cross takes a touch off the head of Fernandes into the path of Sarafiore,
01:39but he's still had a lot to do.
01:41Cuts inside Rivero.
01:46And produces the finish to beat Antunes and give O'Higgins the perfect start.
02:00Amado with the laid-off in the midfield.
02:03Here's Gonzalez, goes for goal!
02:05That's off the crossbar.
02:07What a strike from Jayar Gonzalez.
02:10Fingertips as well from Caravalli.
02:12Crossbar sitting up beautifully for Gonzalez,
02:15but it's a vicious, dipping strike.
02:19And the keeper tips onto the woodwork.
02:29In the swinging corner!
02:31And somehow, it doesn't end in the back of the net.
02:34Seem to be almost headed off the goal line by Martin Gonzalez.
02:38Let's have a look here.
02:43Well, it does get away from Caravalli.
02:45And Martin Gonzalez almost gets ahead of the play.
02:48You'll see better from this angle.
02:50He gets in front of it.
02:53Hands up...
02:56Sarafiore.
02:59Ones the pass over the top.
03:01One under control by Castillo.
03:03Castillo shoots on the edge of the area.
03:05Cutted down by Antunes.
03:09Castillo bringing it under control.
03:12Had the time to get the turn and the shot with the rest of this fair star.
03:17And he's out again in central midfield.
03:20That's an attack on.
03:21Straight through the middle.
03:23Bonfiglio.
03:24Bonfiglio turns!
03:25And that's a very good stop by Caravalli.
03:30Smart run.
03:32Good turn.
03:33Good shot in the end.
03:36In second.
03:37As things stand.
03:39And they could get a second hit.
03:41Chance in behind.
03:42Still going.
03:43Saved by the keeper.
03:44Gonzalez on the turn.
03:45Saved again by Antunes.
03:48The chance goes begging.
03:50Seemingly well away from their markers.
03:52Who got the final touch on it?
03:56What's going on?
03:57Franco Perez is down.
03:59Off the ball.
04:00As we were just waiting.
04:01Ready to hear the half-time whistle.
04:05With that.
04:07My wall stride it going.
04:08Will indeed blow for half-time.
04:13Players making their way off.
04:14Higgins won.
04:15Boston Riven Hill.
04:16Martin Salafiori's early goal.
04:18The difference.
04:22And the Chileans have been the better side.
04:24They've had a couple of good openings.
04:26Not taken.
04:27Since that goal by Salafiori.
04:30But.
04:31It's far from over yet.
04:32And this doesn't look good.
04:33Franco Perez being helped from the field.
04:35At the end of the first half.
04:38The blow for Boston River.
04:40Chasing the game as they are already.
04:42It looks very unlikely that we'll see any more of Franco Perez.
04:46He is now happy.
04:48And we are.
04:49Back underway.
04:50Inran Kagwa.
04:51Second half.
04:53Here in the Sudamericana.
04:54O'Higgins won.
04:55Boston Riven Hill.
04:56That very early goal by Martin Salafiori.
04:59Still the only thing between the two sides.
05:02A very early free kick.
05:03Given away for a foul on Bonfiglio.
05:18Information of that change with Mignola on.
05:2121 year old.
05:22Has scored before in this competition.
05:25Last year.
05:26Against Boston Riven.
05:27The game's first real a card.
05:29Quickly out in the second half.
05:30Facundo Defonte.
05:31The cards in that first half.
05:33But.
05:34They were kept in the pocket of Augusto Eragon.
05:36Until.
05:41Pass.
05:42Turn.
05:43And shot.
05:44Shot over the top of the crossbar.
05:47Santa Fiore.
05:48A little disappointed at the ball.
05:50But.
05:51Arnaldo Castillo.
05:53Turned.
05:54Realized he was in space.
05:56And decided immediately to pull the trigger.
06:03Santa Fiore.
06:05Clips the ball down the line.
06:07Stays in.
06:08And it's a forceful challenge.
06:09But it drops again for Santa Fiore.
06:10He's continued his run.
06:11Santa Fiore inside the box.
06:13The ball across the face.
06:13A goal.
06:14And it's number two.
06:16And it's Pancho Gonzalez.
06:19On target.
06:20As he and Santa Fiore combined.
06:24Just as I was saying.
06:25The pair have been quieter in the second half.
06:28Santa Fiore.
06:28And he takes all the floor.
06:30It's not where he receives the ball.
06:31In his own half.
06:32Clips the ball down the line.
06:35Continues the run.
06:37And this is just a wonderful pass.
06:42Defensively.
06:43Questions have to be asked at Boston River.
06:46In the build up.
06:48And here.
06:49But Santa Fiore takes full advantage.
06:52And ultimately.
06:53So too does Panchito Gonzalez.
06:56Now Higgins have their second.
06:58On the hour mark.
07:00Francisco Gonzalez has another goal.
07:02To his name for 2026.
07:04And the Chileans are now.
07:06Cruising.
07:08Higgins to.
07:10Boston River.
07:11Nil.
07:15And it's the home team.
07:17Going forward.
07:18Looking for more.
07:23Now it's.
07:24Boston River's turn to ask for the other card.
07:26And they get it.
07:26Brian Ravello.
07:36Throw in.
07:37Turned away by the captain.
07:38Martin Gonzalez.
07:47The other cards coming out here for Luis Pávez.
07:57To clear the pitch first of all.
08:00Understandably after so many had entered the playing field.
08:03And it's a red card here.
08:05And it's Leandro Azor I think.
08:07He's a substitute.
08:07He's only been on the pitch.
08:10He's only been on the pitch.
08:11Involved here.
08:11Who goes down under this challenge.
08:15Picks the ball up.
08:17Takes a swing.
08:18Well he.
08:19And Rivero moves it into centre back.
08:21Now.
08:24Shot from outside the box.
08:25And that wasn't far away at all.
08:29Sudamericana dreams will be all but over.
08:31But they.
08:31Did come not too far away from putting a goal back.
08:34A short moment ago.
08:36With this.
08:36Layback.
08:38Passes wide.
08:39Yanez with the low ball in.
08:40Right across the face.
08:41The goal.
08:41Kept alive at the back post by.
08:43Gonzalez.
08:44Gonzalez's crit ball.
08:45And it's headed wide.
08:47At the back post by Bastien Yanez.
08:50Factor.
08:51In the group.
08:56Comes inside onto his left.
08:58Away from one.
08:58Away from two.
08:59Still going Gonzalez.
09:04Quick feet.
09:05Could be a shooting chance here.
09:07Yanez.
09:07Drives the ball over the top of the crossbar.
09:10In the home crowds.
09:16Nice from.
09:17Maturana.
09:19Orgas.
09:20Leyva.
09:25And well.
09:26That is very very silly indeed.
09:28And that could easily be a red it is.
09:30It's a moment of.
09:32Real stupidity.
09:37Not happy with that little dummy from Maturana.
09:39Look at the response.
09:47Baffling.
09:49Baffling.
09:51Baffling.
09:52In the mouth.
09:54And it will now blow.
09:55From the mouth of Agustin Aragon.
09:58It ends here.
10:00Or Higgins.
10:012.
10:02Boston River 0.
10:05Salafiore early.
10:07Gonzalez on the hour mark.
10:09Before Boston River.
10:10Lost all composure.
10:11Ending the game.
10:12Down to nine.
10:13After red cards.
10:14Leandro Osor.
10:15And Jairo O'Neill.
10:16It will.
10:17All but end.
10:18Any hopes.
10:20For Boston River.
10:20A third straight defeat.
10:22And they will now have to look ahead.
10:24To match day four.
10:25Next week.
10:29And a game at home against Misionarios.
10:31With two players.
10:32Now suspended.
10:33After those red cards.
