In the second leg of the Copa Sudamericana quarterfinals, Estudiantes de La Plata were far superior to Corinthians in their game, but the Argentine team lacked luck and efficiency in the finish. They won 1-0, but with the result in favor of the Brazilian team, the key was defined with penalties, where those led by Eduardo Domínguez fell 3-2.
El Pincha had 30 shots on target in Tuesday night’s match, four of them on the posts.
In the first leg, Corinthians had won 1-0. Therefore, the defeat by the slightest difference forced the match to shots from 12 steps, but the two missed shots that hit the crossbar by Luciano Lollo and Santiago Ascacibar left him out , when the Brazilians just missed one.
The team led by Domínguez won it one minute into the game with Mauro Méndez’s goal, but four shots at the posts prevented them from winning it in regulation time and they lost it on penalties.
Before the minute of play, Estudiantes pressed very well in the rival field. José Sosa won very well in the fight with the defenders and took a masterful cross that came down in the area and the Uruguayan Méndez made it 1 to 0 with a right hand to quickly lead on the scoreboard.
As in the first half, for the complement Estudiantes almost completely dominated the actions of the match, with several specific arrivals that could have given them a win, but the sticks prevented them four times.
The Brazilian team miraculously reached penalties, since they did not deserve to reach the definition from 12 steps, because the La Plata team cornered them throughout the match.
In the penalty shootout, Estudiantes suffered a severe blow: two shots off the crossbar, the first by Lollo and the second by Ascacibar, gave Corinthians a pass to the semifinals, who barely missed when Mariano Andújar saved Giuliano’s shot. In turn, Fabio Santos, Fausto Vera and Matías Rojas converted for the classification.
