This Thursday, in Córdoba, Pirata not only failed to turn the series around, but the Brazilian team extended its lead on the scoreboard with a numerical inferiority for a large part of the match. Thus, after the controversies in the first leg, Pirata said goodbye to the competition in the round of 16.
Belgrano fell 2-0 in Córdoba against Athletico Paranaense in the second leg of the Copa Sudamericana round of 16. El Pirata played almost 70 minutes with an extra man at the Mario Alberto Kempes due to the expulsion of Lucas Esquivel, although not only was he unable to turn the series around, but the visiting team extended their lead on aggregate thanks to goals from Gonzalo Mastriani and Lucas Di Yorio and will play Racing in the quarterfinals.
Juan Cruz Real’s team was coming off a bad experience in the first leg, where they had their goal that made it 2-2 unfairly disallowed for a non-existent foul. That action angered the coach and generated an explosive post-match statement. This afternoon at the Kempes, despite trying to turn the series around, they were unable to secure a place.
After a great pass from Thiago Heleno and a notable mistake from 21-year-old defender Mariano Troilo, Paranaense took the lead nine minutes into the second half. Uruguayan Gonzalo Mastriani took advantage of the young defender’s mistake and finished with the inside edge of his left foot to beat Ignacio Chicco’s save.
Paranense’s second goal was a great goal. Gabriel Girotto combined with Agustín Canobio on the left wing. The Uruguayan gave the ball to Christian inside the area, who set up the Argentine Di Yorio. The Mar del Plata native scored with the first touch and sealed the series. In this way, Paranense will face Racing in the next round.
