00:00Tonight, there has to be a winner and we are underway.
00:04Independiente de Lividabia against Fluminense.
00:07Dropping to get the ball into his feet.
00:09Going for goal from a long way out.
00:11Over the top of the crossbar as he kicked.
00:15The hook goes to stand over and, as always,
00:19stands behind the ball, a long way behind the ball.
00:23Seemingly focused and intent on going for goal,
00:26even though he's a long way out.
00:34It's a left foot that can be an absolute hammer at times.
00:38And that's what Hulk is going to go for.
00:40It bounces in front of the goalkeeper and it's easy in the end
00:43for Nicolás Bolkato.
00:45Hookerle standing over it.
00:46It's going to be Ganso.
00:48And it's into the wall.
00:53The arch inside.
00:54Other options to go and play there as number nines in this formation.
01:00Hulk with the corner.
01:02It's down.
01:02The ball is down.
01:27I'm not happy with this challenge either, there's going to be a Cards coming from the
01:32pocket, it's a yellow, for Canobio, they're off Canobio, they weren't, not really enough to lead, that's the midfield, we're
01:43back underway, independent de Rivadavia against Fluminense, it's the Commonwealth Libertadores, delays the cross, held up by Guga, Fernandes to
01:53the byline, pulls it back and deflected off Ignacio, and behind for a corner.
02:01Oh, Hulk at the near post, as far away is Fernandes, who goes for goal, bouncing, skidding, through a crowded
02:07penalty area, and behind.
02:11A run-up that would suggest it's going to be delivered inside the penalty box, that is clipped into the
02:17area, and clipped straight into the hands of Nicolas Bolcato.
02:22Hold forward quickly, Fernandes is in behind, Fernandes held up briefly, and in the end, Hercules doing enough, for a
02:31moment.
02:33Fernandes, lovely first touch, bringing it under control.
02:37Fernandes still going, brought down here by Canobio, right on the edge of the box, it's a yellow card.
02:42For Canobio, it's a second yellow card, and he is off.
02:48Advantage, Independiente Rivadavia, Augustin Canobio, given his marching orders.
02:56Yellow card from the first half, for this challenge, on Bottari.
03:04On a yellow card, this is a very reckless one to make.
03:08The wrong side of Fernandes, knowing where he's going, if he gets it wrong, there's a good chance of a
03:15yellow.
03:17That's what he's got.
03:19That, in turn, means red, and Fluminense are up again.
03:24That is a fairly useful way out, but they might have a chance anyway.
03:28Here, the ball's in behind the Cerner.
03:29Cerner, 1-1, they've done it.
03:31The ten-man lead.
03:35It didn't look like coming with 11 men, let alone since the red card.
03:42But Independiente Rivadavia have switched off and paid the price.
03:48Cerner from the bench.
03:50Is the space?
03:52Unchecked, in behind, and onside as it's delivered over the top.
03:57Defense is slow to react.
04:01And Cerner finishes brilliantly.
04:04One touch out of his feet.
04:06And then just a slip finish beyond Nicolás Polcato.
04:11It's a hammer blow for Independiente Rivadavia,
04:16who at this stage looked like the team.
04:20Pushing now to find a winner inside the...
04:23Will go up on the board.
04:26Salas.
04:29Salas again.
04:31Drilled in low.
04:32Blocked, big appeal for handball.
04:35Behind for a corner.
04:37Referee will, of course,
04:39will be looking at this.
04:43It's hammered in by Salas.
04:45Flicked goalwards.
04:46Is there an arm there?
04:50I'm not sure.
04:51And why Anders Rokas is being told to make a look.
04:55In stoppage time.
04:56This is the angle.
04:57You slow it down here.
04:58That arm is away from the body.
05:00And unless it flicks off the chest first, which I don't think it does.
05:04That is an arm.
05:06Someone on the bench.
05:08And it is a penalty.
05:11Independiente Rivadavia, the 94th, into the sixth minute of stoppage time.
05:16It's Alex Arce against Fabio Arce into the back of the net.
05:20It's goal number nine in this year's Limitadores for Alex Arce.
05:24And more importantly than that, it's an equalizer for Independiente Rivadavia.
05:31At the death, La Lepra Mendozino are back level with Fluminense.
05:37Not over yet.
05:40Deep in stoppage time.
05:43Still nothing separates the two sides.
05:45And surely now, a penalty shootout will be needed to separate them.
05:57Aze keeps his cool.
06:00Fabio goes the wrong way.
06:02And can only watch as Arce whips it inside the full-time whistleblows.
06:09With that chance missed.
06:11And we will indeed have penalties.
06:14Late, late drama.
06:18Big exhale.
06:20Silva stutters and finds the back of the net.
06:23Beats Paul Kattel.
06:25And puts Fluminense one up in the shootout.
06:30So, so calm.
06:34Off the post.
06:36Unstoppable.
06:40Up against Fabio.
06:42Fernandez.
06:44Finds the net.
06:45Down low.
06:47Fabio guessing correctly.
06:49He could not.
06:53Just about enough on it.
06:57Fabio down into that corner.
07:03Almost a skip off the turf.
07:06Acosta.
07:09Over the crossbar.
07:15Lucho Acosta took his time.
07:18Stand behind the goal.
07:22Volcato had gone the right way.
07:25Not needed on this occasion.
07:37Second penalty is pushed home the advantage.
07:41And Vigialba, just as he did in the Copa Argentina final, does just that.
07:47Finds the back of the net.
07:50And gives the first advantage in the shootout to Independiente Rivadavia.
08:14Slowest of run-ups possible from Rene.
08:17And he scores.
08:22A bizarre run-up.
08:26Works out well enough for him with Volcato going the wrong way.
08:31And he makes it 2-2.
08:42Important here this evening.
08:44But saved from the penalty spot.
08:47Fabio goes the right way.
08:49Denies Jose Florentin.
08:54The early advantage for Independiente Rivadavia.
08:58Lost with that save from Fabio.
09:10Perkulis staggers and scores.
09:14Volcato going the wrong way.
09:183-2, the Brazilians.
09:20And now the pressure swings back on Independiente Rivadavia at a stage in the shootout.
09:29When a miss could be curtains.
09:38Now hoping to keep Independiente Rivadavia in the Libertadores.
09:41And he does so.
09:45Makes it 3-3 by finding that bottom corner.
09:48And with just the fifth and final of the Regulation 5 to come, we're already at sudden death.
09:56Great penalty.
09:59Even with Fabio guessing correctly, tucked away into that corner.
10:07Martinelli against Volcato.
10:10Now Martinelli scores.
10:164-3, Fluminense lead.
10:22Marcao barely able to watch.
10:39And beat Fabio from 12 yards.
10:42And he's done it again.
10:44Arce scores.
10:45It's 4-4.
10:48And death.
11:01And now, we get to some of those players who maybe didn't quite.
11:08Sidesteps in the run-up.
11:10And scores.
11:12Just about lifting it out of the reaches of Nicolas Polcato.
11:19And now it's Atensio to keep Independiente Rivadavia in this.
11:24And it's saved.
11:27Unable to beat Fabio.
11:30And with that, Fluminense clinch it.
11:33The veteran keeper with a big, big hand to deny Rodrigo Atensio.
11:44And despite the scare, despite the injury time equalizer, Fluminense prevailed.
12:04Unless VAR can come in and see a sign of Fabio coming from his line before the taking of that
12:15penalty.
12:24The victory is Fluminense's.
12:28And 45-year-old Fabio.
12:43Atensio.
12:45In his efforts to almost disguise his pen.
