00:00Onus very much on the side in black this evening, chasing two goals which would
00:08take it to penalties. Pitch looking very playable indeed in eight on his side the
00:18first throw in of the night, see what it can do. Trills, it's a nice angled ball
00:22inside the area. Again Fluminense struggled to clear the lines clean and
00:28it's an ambitious volley. Half cleared by Henne, Hulke with a turn and Hulke down and stays
00:39down. Space for Ferreira. Maybe a two rush then from Minero, there's a snapshot which
00:51in the end cells, wide from Retama.
00:55Tensing again, patient.
01:03Nice little triangle, have they got an end product here? Well they have and Fabio
01:07is forced to tip it away. Best move of the match so far from the hosts.
01:14Sabarido, who is mostly on defensive duties, forces Fabio the veteran.
01:22He hasn't mentioned his name so far, where is the number 35 shot?
01:27That's Oteldo. Chance to rip it inside the area, no taker so far in a white shirt and it drifts
01:34just off target from Palo and Higigan. So, one of the players is looking, that's the
01:40better ball inside the area. There's the header down, Fabio does enough to clear it.
01:45It's much better from the home side. A high delivery caused a lot more problems than
01:56Mineiro's earlier efforts.
02:01Vasquez with a nod down and Fabio, his reactions just took it away from Mineiro.
02:07Mineiro, an outlet, tricks his way past N8, slides it forward.
02:13And Trudy Lowe, and this time they find the back of the net, Fabio gets a touch,
02:20but Mineiro's effort puts Platense back in this tie.
02:28Oh, the former Veles man. Skilling his side a real lifeline here, just before the half hour mark.
02:40Started the move himself, tricks his way past N8, wasn't cleared properly.
02:47In the end, the Colombian couldn't get it cleared, and it comes off a white shirt on its way in.
02:56And that deflection looked like Ericles turns it away from Fabio, and Platense are back in business.
03:14And once again, launches it where it causes problems for Flew. Attempted a bicycle kick, comes to nothing.
03:24Filling it down quickly by Barrios.
03:30Platense trying to turn the screw. Scooped into the night sky.
03:37Amiel.
03:40Platense go for glory for the long way out.
03:45Platense go for the long way out!
03:46Yeah, Retama has been quiet in the last ten minutes or so.
03:49Let's solve that little bit of a gap.
03:53Get away from Guga.
03:55Just for a second or two.
03:59Like it might dip into a top corner.
04:16Only a two-man walk for Teldo, that's a little flick from Martinelli, comes to nothing.
04:28Guga has covered.
04:30Potence, it's nowhere near where the ball went out of his right to bring it back here.
04:37That is better for Mainaire.
04:39A chance here!
04:41And they draw level!
04:43Much, much better delivery from the number seven!
04:48As said, Paul Vidal has drawn the team's level just before half-time.
04:57And that really has got the Platense fans going.
05:06What a night for them.
05:08Turning around that two-goal deficit away in the Maracanã.
05:18Mainaire, for once, a pinpoint delivery.
05:23He got away from Henei and said Búlveda gets away from Thiago Silva.
05:30And a delicious cushioned header.
05:35Brings the two teams back on level.
05:40Great goal from Potence.
05:44Everything to play for tonight.
05:58And even now we've got 45, plus whatever's going to be added on to go.
06:04Penalties are now a possibility.
06:08Manero, a hand in both goals.
06:10And they're all black, kicked.
06:14To get the second half underway.
06:21That's a bit of a shove on Henei on the far side, not spotted.
06:26How will these two react in this second period?
06:31Again, both sides struggling to click now.
06:33Opportunity here for Fluminense.
06:34Fluminense, got an obio in on goal.
06:37Just a little bit wide.
06:38Got Holt there in support.
06:39Goes alone and squeezes the ball into the back of the net.
06:48A flat-footed back line puts Fluminense back in front.
07:00Not the crispest of shots.
07:04Again, it comes from a ball gifted away.
07:07Canabio won it back in midfield.
07:09Marcinelli to Hulk.
07:13And Canabio just gets that bit of space.
07:16Just gets away from Vasquez with ease.
07:19And what a massive, massive goal that might turn out to be.
07:30The Uruguayan back in the starting line-up tonight.
07:33The Uruguayan back in the starting line-up tonight.
07:34Makes his presence felt.
07:43Huge.
07:47Heavily involved, finds Gugu's got space to run into here.
07:51Hulk surely offside.
07:54As he turns, tries to dig the keeper.
07:58Far too casual in the end from the number seven.
08:01The flag has stayed down.
08:03That was a golden opportunity.
08:05The kill was tied off.
08:06Canabio.
08:08René.
08:10It's out the Uruguayan.
08:12Who knocks it in forwards.
08:14And right in front of goal.
08:16Hulk fails to find the target.
08:28Canabio is onside.
08:30Hulk's run, not picked up.
08:33And he was onside as well.
08:34Has now come on.
08:36Also got minutes last week.
08:44Watched it forward.
08:45There's the little not down.
08:46There's the chance.
08:48Fabio turns it away.
08:5110c.
08:54Looking for an equaliser on the night.
08:57It could come here.
09:00But in the end.
09:03Fabio makes an easy claim.
09:09Ball just turned inside the area.
09:13There's a little nod down.
09:15A couple of deflections.
09:21Fabio just popping up at the right time.
09:23This is an early effort on goal.
09:24Not the one we're just trying to find a way through.
09:27Can it do so now?
09:42That was the moment.
09:45The clearest chance in the second period.
09:49I think K would have been called off.
09:50I think K would have been called off.
09:51Still three minutes remaining.
09:53Canabio feeding.
09:55Or rather Hulk feeding.
09:57Canabio.
09:58Okulis.
09:59Shooting opportunity.
10:01Puts it wide.
10:14Oh goody.
10:15Just getting that little bit of.
10:17Five has come and gone.
10:24Oh the Fluminense fans.
10:27And the Fluminense bench celebrate.
10:33Well it all worked so well for Fluminense in that first half.
10:37And it really looked like.
