00:00Argentina-Brazil clash with everything that that entails.
00:12Wonderful atmosphere in Rosario.
00:19The winners will go through to face either Universidad Católica, Chileans, or Estudiantes de la Plata, the Argentines.
00:27That's what would await them in the quarterfinals for this evening's, well not this evening, next week's winners.
00:40There's Di Maria. This is what he came back to do with the countdown.
00:466, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
00:54And now, Rosario Central, Corinthians is go. It's an Argentina-Brazil clash.
01:01The Canaja versus the Cimao, the Scoundrels versus the big team in this first leg of the round of 16.
01:09The number 8 who will leave this free kick. First opportunity for the set-piece for Corinthians.
01:16And then, don't use it effectively.
01:24Di Maria to deliver.
01:29Comes through this on the far post.
01:33Huge calls for offside by Corinthians.
01:36Hurry up. Didn't clear the first man, but Garro's head up.
01:46And it is still untidy. Garro looking to change that, but he put a bit too much weight on that
01:52pass.
01:56Dispossessed there, brilliant, by Cantizano.
02:01Campas.
02:03Going to try his luck. Forces the save from Sosa.
02:08And cleared by Corinthians.
02:12Well, it's the first save of the match.
02:17Recent effort from Campas.
02:20Struck it well.
02:22Not at a height that...
02:25Going to really look to just tidy up and rebuild.
02:28Di Maria.
02:30And he loses out.
02:31Loses cheaply there. He's looking for a foul, but he won't get anything because there was nothing there.
02:35This is...
02:36Bruno.
02:36To the advertising board, is he Di Maria?
02:42But he is lobbying the assistant to try to get decisions their way.
02:47It's all part of the game.
02:49Part of the experience of players like Di Maria.
02:51Here he is.
02:52A lovely ball in the channel, but...
02:55He was looking by Ranieri, which we see there replayed.
02:59Just to confirm there's no foul whatsoever.
03:02Alan.
03:06Well, he did spot.
03:08Go off the ball. Here's the Colombian once again.
03:15Plays in Sandes, who's in a great position.
03:18In that inside left channel.
03:21Centrál.
03:26Better play from Corinthians.
03:28Especially midfield now to try and get on the front foot.
03:32Garro with the ball for Pedro Raúl.
03:48For...
03:48Almost inside his own half.
03:50Shot from Kampas.
03:51That's at the other end, and that's pretty much it so far.
03:54Now Copetti will do her space now to attack.
04:03Looks for the head of Pedro Raul, the center forward, still on the edge of the area.
04:08Mateo Xenio loses his foot in somewhat, but somehow finds Caio.
04:14Can't quite curl it into that top corner.
04:17But good work by the center forward on the edge of the area
04:23to keep possession.
04:25A bit lucky there, Mateo Xenio.
04:30And similarly, the right idea by Caio Jorget
04:34to help his team keep the ball through that sea of Corinthians players.
04:39This is Ankel Di Maria.
04:42There's an opening here.
04:47Appeals by Centrale.
04:52And there's just a hint of a tug there, isn't there, by Gustavo Enrique.
04:57Grabs his hand.
05:01Of Rosario Centrale.
05:04And it will be Andres Matonte to the side, of Centrale even.
05:08You heard Di Maria remonstrating with the match referee's assistant by the corner.
05:15He was talking about a huge moment.
05:17The decision by Matonte is no penalty.
05:24And so the battle continues.
05:29Ibarra.
05:31It was really well to find Di Maria.
05:35Campas.
05:37Great work by Mateo Xenio.
05:47With the end swing up.
05:49Goes all the way.
05:49Hit the bar.
05:51Twice.
05:55There are a lot of these.
05:58Didn't really get the tidiest contact on it, did they?
06:00But it was Matheus Bidou in the end on the far post with the header.
06:11Really well to direct that after the rebound.
06:16You don't need to be a coach, but he certainly doesn't hide his disappointment with his players
06:23and what he wants from them.
06:33Orlando on the end of it, but to no avail.
06:45Continues to be really hard fought there in the middle.
06:47And they're three players down and Matonte has big decisions to make here.
06:53We said this match was always at risk of boiling over.
06:57And so it's proved we haven't even made for a half-time yet.
07:04Matonte allows play on one more attack for Centrale.
07:12Di Maria.
07:14Can't find Campas.
07:16Garro now.
07:18And that is enough for this first half
07:21that's lacked quality, lacked
07:25clear-cut chances, lacked goals.
07:31Rodrigo Garro in particular.
07:33Breno Bidon, those three players
07:35attacking midfielders, playing behind Pedro Raul.
07:38But yet to really come into their own.
07:41We are underway, then, in Rosario for this second half.
07:46Let's see if there's a bit more football.
07:48A little less bite out.
07:51Finds Di Maria.
08:02Cleared by Gustavo Enrique.
08:04Another chance for Navarro.
08:11Atmosphere in Rosario.
08:13Di Maria.
08:15Lovely ball for Campas.
08:19Whose control just saw, just...
08:35not exactly a set-piece players.
08:37Still neither side manage to find any rhythm in their play.
08:41That's Paul from Pedro Raul.
08:42Gifts possession to Centrale.
08:46Campas does well to skip past Mateuszinho.
08:50And it was the poked half-cross hop.
09:02I'm not sure if he knew in his mind, really,
09:04what he was going for there.
09:06Pass to deliver Di Maria in the area.
09:11And Paulista once again with the header clear.
09:18I'm not sure if he's going for it, but he's going for it.
09:22Di Maria's delivery to the far post.
09:24Still in play.
09:27Avila forces a save from Di Maria.
09:35Great ball for Campas.
09:37Just over the bar.
09:49It's a better ball in.
09:55We're still...
09:57You're waiting to see some...
10:00It's a bad challenge by Allen.
10:02And he's on a yellow card, and he's off.
10:09The challenge is on Navarro.
10:11No complaints.
10:15The entrance down to ten men for the last ten minutes in Rosario.
10:28On loan from Flamengo, Allen, the experienced midfielder.
10:38Fleet reorganized.
10:46The first challenge in that.
10:50Was undoubtedly the second.
10:55Full stretch, missed the ball.
10:58Took the player.
11:00A bit of numerical advantage for Central as we
11:04enter the closing phase of this match.
11:06Di Maria launches it.
11:21It's a good decision there from the youngster, still Ovando.
11:27Round of 16 in the Libertadores.
11:30Central commit players forward.
11:34Di Maria's delivery.
11:36The clear by Gustavo Enrique.
11:42And there's Carrillo doing his part in defense.
11:46Still, Corinthians failed to clear.
11:48Can pass.
11:50Di Maria.
11:52Great save by the Saucer.
11:58Taking absolutely everything.
12:00The Corinthians to keep Central out.
12:06Well, he is the author of some wonder goals down the years.
12:11Di Maria.
12:12And that.
12:13The work there by Varon.
12:15The substitute.
12:17Here he is.
12:23He's convinced there was handball there.
12:25Continuing to protest.
12:37This is Ibarra.
12:46Nowhere to go for...
12:49And pass.
12:55And ready they were.
12:56And captain there in half.
12:58The Corinthians all the more now that they are down to ten men as Di Maria.
13:02Tried.
13:08Ibarra.
13:15The more this match continues like as it is.
13:19The more frustrated you feel Rosario or Central will be.
13:24There's still plenty of time.
13:31It's all out attack for Central.
13:34They know that they have to make this.
13:37The effort.
13:38The work.
13:47And Lonnie just completely missed it there.
13:50Miscued it.
13:53Campas.
13:55And they have weathered the storm, Corinthians, somehow.
14:00Campas, once again, a last opportunity, surely.
14:07We hit the eight-minute tense clash between Rosario, Central and Corinthians that ends goalless.
14:14This will be decided next week in Sao Paulo.
14:20Where it will be the Cimao with the home advantage.
14:26How are we?
14:29No, they won't talk by it.
14:30In the past.
14:30We're here to go.
14:31I'll drive the the mud now.
14:31I'll do to the it.
14:31No!
14:31Harge this?
14:3213 years, Spot.
14:32So there is the news for Christmas and the best practices.
14:33And this is why we believe campaigns are effective
14:33But yes, I mean, we've been to tell
14:34Jamie, and we all finish up this through 1960s.
14:35History has confidence could be that convening last week.
