Barcelona SC defeated Universitario de Deportes on Wednesday 0-1 in the second leg of the second phase of the Liberators cupwhich allowed them, after their 2-0 win in the first leg, to qualify for the third phase where they will face America Mineiro from Brazil.
The team from Guayaquil arrived with a comfortable advantage in Lima and, despite losing a player in the first minutes, managed to advance in the tournament, as did América Mineiro, who eliminated Guaraní from Paraguay in the definition by shots from the point penal.
The Argentinian Emmanuel Martinez eluded the cream defense and fired a shot that opened the scoring in the 66th minute for Barcelona, leaving the National Stadium in Lima speechless, which returned to having almost 100% attendance after two years.
With this result, Universitario, directed by the Uruguayan Alvaro Gutierrezsays goodbye to the international calendar for the remainder of the year.
Barcelona suffered a setback in the 23rd minute of play when the referee sent off Luca Sosa, after bringing down Alex Valera when he was heading only for Burrai’s goal.
Piero Quispe shot on goal after executing the free kick, but the shot was annulled due to an advanced position, which generated the reaction of the creams and an outbreak of anger with the bullfighters.
Despite the difference in players, Barcelona resumed the offensive in the game and put pressure on Universitario, who felt the urgency to open the scoring to overcome the 2-0 loss received in the first leg in Guayaquil.
In the following minutes, both teams lost the opportunity to score, with shots from Valera and Penilla, and went into the break with undefeated goals.
In the second half, Urruti and Valera finished off Burrai’s goal but the shots missed the side or crashed into the post.
After the goal scored by Martínez in the 66th minute, the dynamics of the game changed in favor of the visit and the bullfighters sought to increase the result in Lima.
In the final minutes, striker Alex Valera was sent off due to an accumulation of fouls, with which both teams ended up even in numbers.
