Víctor Sánchez Valdivieso @vesanchezv.- In a match where three red cards were shown and the offensive side of the rivals were indebted to those present at the Agustín Tovar Stadium in Barinas, Club Atlético Boston River from Uruguay defeated Zamora FC from Venezuela 1-0 to stay with the series of the Preliminary Phase 1 of the Copa Libertadores 2023.
With the advantage in their favor by winning the first leg in Montevideo (3-1), the team led by Creole coach Daniel Farias closed their pass to the next round – where they will face Huracán from Argentina – after 20 minutes with a pass from Mathias Acuña to Jonathan Urretaviscaya, who entered the left side of the area facing two defenders and the goalkeeper to kick hard towards the near post with the goal of the difference in the Venezuelan plain.
With the 1-0 down (4-1 overall), Zamora pressed in search of equality with a powerful definition from Yuxer Requena who then left the game half an hour into the game for Mauricio Márquez. The possible comeback from the Llanos began to get complicated with a strong foul by Jorman Aguilar from Canal on Urretaviscaya that the VAR System confirmed and that the Colombian main judge sentenced with a red card of expulsion shortly after the break.
La Furia Llanera was left with 9 players at the start of the second half with a tackle that Jeizon Ramírez committed against a Boston River player who seconds before incurred a foul that the Venezuelan club charged with a free kick. With two less black and white, the visiting cast sought to sentence with constant incursions into the local portico that were unsuccessful.
Although the referee Andrés Rojas expelled Guzmán Rodríguez who left the game 10 against 9, the score did not move further for the benefit of Boston River. For its part, Zamora FC out of the cup, will focus its objective on the Venezuelan tournament, specifically on receiving Estudiantes de Mérida for Date 2 of the FutVe League.
