00:30Sporting Club and hoping to stop a five match winless run at home in
00:38Comeball Libertadores that is tied for the longest streak of games in club
00:43history in Libertadores play without a win Cesar Farias and his staff know that
00:52tonight's really does seem at the very least like a can't lose scenario and
01:00really is leaning towards a must win up from the right back to take the throw for
01:05Universidad Cat贸lica first time pass inventive looking for the run of
01:10Johan Valencia who somehow managed to get on to it in 2020 absolutely hit the
01:17ground running and he's found a really nice pasture in the latter stages of his
01:22career now that enterprising run forward from Montez Montez in and at the near
01:29post it slammed home who else but the captain the all-time leading scorer a
01:41fabulous run from Clemente Montez matched only by the service eyes up he spotted a
01:50number nine making the near post run and then Zampadri doing what he's done all six
01:58years for the club heart passion desire to get across his marker at the near post
02:04might have taken a lump for it stack formation on the penalty spot for
02:11Universidad Cat贸lica Suki whipping one towards the back post header across
02:17headers out and in
02:23a beautifully worked corner kick and Universidad Cat贸lica double the lead
02:32various in Guayaquil as it's so easy from the corner kick routine header across from Gianni and a brave header
02:43in traffic from Clemente Montez
02:46Gomez Suki with the fabulous first time ball in from the corner the second the header across from Gianni into
02:54an area of danger
02:56Gomez with Benedetto Benedetto fakes the return pass the shot does draw some adulation from the crowd into a shooting
03:06chance
03:08against just deflected by some astute defending from Eugenio Mane who had a one-on-two
03:15and no it's one in Asio Diaz I beg your pardon who all his heart and mouth for
03:20defender backtracking towards his own goal trying to cut out the cross didn't get it how he had hoped
03:32a lunge from Hector Vigalba
03:34two players with MLS experience there Vigalba the former Atlanta United man
03:45and it looks a bit worse on second viewing the challenge
03:52white shirts streaming forward on the counter for Universidad Cat贸lica slipping it through to San Pedro
03:57on the overlap handing it off to Montez
04:03pulled away by Contreras
04:05more groans emanate from the crowd
04:07so we get a look back at the chance for Montez from a few minutes ago
04:12went for power at the near post
04:21Benedetto
04:21cutting it back towards Gomez
04:23Gomez sneaking in behind Gomez
04:25just wide
04:33really just a two-man game in the attack that time for Barcelona
04:36it's been their two most dangerous players Benedetto
04:40some lovely back-to-go play
04:41able to turn and spot the run of Chandra Gomez
04:47showed a good turn of pace
04:50the teenager to just get there
04:57half-time whistle rings out in Guayaquil
05:01and it's the visitors from Santiago who have a 2-0 advantage heading into the break
05:08Fernando Zampedre
05:10getting across his marker at the front post to stab home
05:13Clemente Montes cross in the 17th minute
05:15and then Montes
05:16the second header
05:18from a fabulous corner kick routine

05:45and it's the visitors from Chile
05:47Universidad Cat贸lica kicking things off
05:49leading by 2-0 on the road in Guayaquil
05:55and in fact not a double change
05:58but a triple change
06:04from Cesar Farias and Barcelona
06:08that might just tell you
06:09what he thought about the first half performance
06:15from the Canario
06:19Zerli Huila in to replace Jandri Gomez
06:25Jefferson Intriago on to replace Matias Lugo
06:28and Tomas Martinez on for Hector Vichalba
06:31into the attack on Barcelona now
06:33clips off the shin of the goalkeeper
06:41tackle bounces kindly for a long range effort from Selys crowd
06:48the left foot of Milton Selys thought
06:50maybe it might just nestle in the side netting
06:56took it quickly
06:57I'm not sure Bernardo is going to get there
06:59if that's on target
07:01maybe just getting a trip to the Gal谩pagos
07:03out of drawing Barcelona away
07:06as now it's Vallecilla
07:07seats his defender with the shot fake
07:09Vallecilla
07:10well held by Berdero
07:13shot fake
07:15losing
07:15a would-be mark from Suki
07:21and after such a lovely shot fake
07:24can't blame Vallecilla for wanting to take the strike on himself
07:30try and absorb and spring on a counter like this
07:34that's
07:34Gianni picking up the loose ball
07:38couple of challenges and that should be a yellow
07:40it is
07:41quickly coming over the referee to give Rangel
07:44and he got a two for one there really
07:47as first he fouled
07:50Zampadri
07:51and that was the more important foul than this one
07:54Gianni able to dribble round Rangel
07:57to ensure it was a yellow for the Barcelona center back
08:00it's turned over from Barcelona
08:03and outside of the boot down the line
08:05into the path of Gomez
08:07Gomez gets his eyes up

08:35Milton Selyse restores hope for the Canario
08:49didn't look like much in it
08:51when that cross was swung out to the edge of the six
08:57and that is a stunning header from Milton Selyse
09:07tonight's lovely take from the youngster Wila
09:12slipping past the first defender but Cuevas tracking back
09:15and that is a nasty challenge into Cuevas
09:18he's saying he slipped did Selyse
09:25tried to pull out
09:28and he wasn't wrong
09:29and
09:311-2 that's beautifully worked
