00:00 [MUSIC]
00:03 As both teams take the pitch.
00:05 [MUSIC]
00:07 [CROWD NOISE]
00:13 A roar from the crowd at the Estadio Beira Rio.
00:17 Sport Club Internacional, they are the home side.
00:21 Controlled off the chest by Paulo Riqui Gonzalo,
00:23 but pushed off the ball, now the shot is blocked.
00:26 Alright, it's Mauricio, or Mauricio going forward, but still trouble here for Fluminense
00:31 to get out of their own defensive half.
00:33 Now down the right to Hugo Mayo, service across the six!
00:36 Oh, Wanderson was close.
00:38 [CROWD NOISE]
00:41 Santos when the Sudamericana.
00:43 [CROWD NOISE]
00:46 Now, a burst here for Fluminense after the turnover is John Arias.
00:51 Arias has to drop it back to Alexander.
00:56 Here's a long range shot!
00:58 And easily reeled in and seen all the way by Sergio Rochette to deny Hermankano.
01:04 First shot on target for the goleador of the Libertadores.
01:10 Here's Enner Valencia, faced up by Felipe Melo.
01:14 And then Patriki gets it to Wanderson.
01:16 Wanderson, Wanderson in the area.
01:18 Wanderson, and for the shot, save Fabio!
01:22 This is going to be a corner kick for El Colorado Gaucho and Wanderson.
01:27 So, Jesus Valenzuela of Venezuela.
01:31 [CROWD NOISE]
01:36 Set piece opportunity here for Alan Patriki, right footed, in the swing,
01:40 or most of the back post, the header down!
01:42 Goal!
01:47 Gabriel Mercado puts it over the line!
01:52 Uses his head!
01:56 Will be the goal that puts Fluminense to bed.
02:00 [CROWD NOISE]
02:07 How about Fabio?
02:08 Fabio goes for the ball and he either gets tripped up,
02:12 I didn't see a foul there, so he certainly wasn't fouled.
02:15 Let's see.
02:17 Might have been his own teammate that brought him down there, or he stumbles.
02:21 Whatever the case, this is a poor decision here by Fabio.
02:23 Let's see.
02:25 Yeah, he stumbles over his own teammate.
02:29 Fluminense, same year that Gabriel Mercado joined Internacional.
02:34 Here is a touch through by Wanderson.
02:38 Gets it back from Alan Patriki.
02:40 Now slides it through to Mauricio.
02:41 Mauricio! Mauricio!
02:43 Save Fabio!
02:46 Going for the ball here.
02:48 Great pass by Alan Patrik to Wanderson, to Mauricio.
02:51 We lay it to Ener Valencia.
02:53 Valencia is there to his left for deliveries and service.
02:58 He can come out into the midfield and create chances as well.
03:01 He has number 10 qualities.
03:04 Does Ener Valencia.
03:05 Speaking of number 10, here's Alan Patrik.
03:07 And his chance goes wide.
03:11 Opening up in the midfield, there is Hugo Mayo winning the ball.
03:18 And he mis-hit it terribly.
03:19 You can see from that angle.
03:21 Mauricio, here's Ener Valencia, but he's collapsed upon there.
03:24 Good defending there by André Vitor.
03:27 Recovers the possession.
03:28 Wanderson, Wanderson, Wanderson in the area.
03:30 Cuts it back right for the shot.
03:32 It's blocked.
03:33 Pops up in the air.
03:34 And it's going to be a corner kick for Internacional.
03:36 It's a corner kick opportunity.
03:37 Look out for Gabriel Mercado.
03:44 Nino, oh, Capitão Nino.
03:47 André.
03:50 Guga.
03:52 Long ball looking for Cano.
03:53 He looks like he was well offside, but the flag is down for now.
03:57 Cano with a couple of chances to turn.
03:59 This one off the post.
04:00 The header.
04:01 It's blocked.
04:03 I'm still waiting for the flag to come up, but the flag stayed down.
04:06 And finally, we will get the offside.
04:14 Took so long, I thought for a second that he was not offside.
04:21 Chancho Calvet is saying, "Whoa."
04:23 Yep, it's offside.
04:26 He was offside by that.
04:27 I call it the sprinter's lean at the tape.
04:31 Look at that.
04:33 And Mancano is so good that even if the shot gets blocked,
04:35 it still manages to go toward goal.
04:37 It's short to Mauricio.
04:39 Back to Alan Patrick.
04:41 Plenty of space here for Wanderson.
04:43 Wanderson with the shot.
04:44 It's blocked.
04:48 Wanderson with the chance.
04:57 Second half underway at the Estadio Beira Rio.
05:02 [speaking Spanish]
05:05 Says it will be easy pass there for Nino to control.
05:10 But Gonzo with a smooth little back heel to get it to Arias.
05:13 Now Marcello overlapping on the right, back into the middle for Gonzo.
05:16 Gonzo tried to squeeze it into Kennedy.
05:18 There's the shot, and it goes wide.
05:20 It's Erman Cano.
05:23 Quiet match for Erman Cano.
05:25 Guga with the service inside.
05:27 Defensive header cleared out by Marcado.
05:29 And now chested down, Gonzo.
05:32 But it is going to be a handball.
05:34 There's Internacional with a chance to build the attack going forward as Marcello is down.
05:42 Like maybe got the wind knocked out of him.
05:48 Referee Jesus Valenzuela says, "All right.
05:51 Calm, calm."
05:54 And Marcello continues to receive attention.
06:01 Playing it into space for Valencia.
06:03 Nice feint there as Andre goes down.
06:05 And now Valencia running into space.
06:07 Valencia into space.
06:08 Valencia, Valencia, Valencia, Valencia.
06:11 And it is Nino.
06:13 Shuts it down before Valencia can get a shot on target.
06:19 Just hasn't been able to get the service.
06:22 Hasn't been able to get into the space.
06:23 And look at that turn you see Andre slip.
06:26 And then it's Enner bursting forward.
06:32 Great angle there.
06:34 And a well-timed tackle by Nino.
06:42 That's one of the strengths of Enner Valencia.
06:45 Enner el excelente, as I like to call him.
06:48 Here is a chance on the left side for Cano.
06:51 But then it's won by Mayo not played into space.
06:53 Looking for Valencia.
06:54 Valencia almost gets around Marcinelli.
06:58 And we're going to get our primero cartel amarelo.
07:02 Marcinelli goes into the book of Jesus Valenzuela in the 70th minute.
07:14 Well, first of all, you've got to credit Hugo Mayo for winning the ball.
07:18 And you wonder Enner Valencia if he's laboring a little bit.
07:21 Still dealing with the effects of that cramp on his left calf.
07:25 Service by Alan Patrick.
07:26 The header almost missed.
07:28 It's missed.
07:29 I was ready to call goal on the header by Enner Valencia because he normally buries those.
07:35 But he missed it wide.
07:38 Enner Valencia does not miss that often.
07:44 I was ready to call the goal.
07:49 We know the finalists of the Copa Conmebol Sudamericana will be Fortaleza against Liga de Quito.
07:56 Enner Valencia with the header.
07:58 Oh, it's going to fall to Mauricio.
07:59 Mauricio!
08:00 His shot is blocked by Andre.
08:03 Tracking it down on the far side.
08:05 The pass in the midfield there was Alan Patrick.
08:07 And then he clips Marcelo.
08:09 The referee says no foul.
08:10 This was played into space for Enner Valencia.
08:12 Enner Valencia.
08:14 Goal!
08:15 No!
08:16 Enner Valencia missing a second breakaway transition counterattack opportunity.
08:25 He was on.
08:30 This is three chances that Enner has missed in the second half.
08:34 And you have to wonder if that leg is bothering him.
08:39 Long ball all the way back to Fabio.
08:43 Now here is Keno on the left side.
08:49 Yes.
08:50 Well done by Marcelo to let the ball run.
08:52 It's for Hermankano.
08:53 Now for John Kennedy.
08:55 Kennedy!
08:57 Goal!
09:01 Presidente puts it over the line.
09:05 Massive equalizer late in the second half.
09:18 How about the move there by Marcelo to leave it for Kano?
09:26 And John Kennedy with the beautiful finish.
09:33 Well done with the outside of the right foot.
09:39 And then Mercado, or excuse me, it's Henné, almost keeps it out.
09:55 And the president.
09:59 Through the midfield for André.
10:03 To Kano, out wide for Kano.
10:07 It's over the line!
10:10 Hermankano appears out of nowhere!
10:13 And Fluminense are on the verge of going to the final!
10:23 Unbelievable!
10:28 Great goal scorers can be quiet.
10:33 But when you need them to come through, they're clutch.
10:37 Hermankano.
10:40 With the touch out wide to Arias and then drop for Kennedy with a nice backheel.
10:44 And Kano from there, he's not going to miss.
10:53 It was Johnny González who won the ball.
10:57 Look how smooth and clean Hermankano strikes it.
11:03 Five minutes added on here.
11:05 Plenty of time.
11:06 Service inside for Valencia!
11:09 And cleared away by John Arias.
11:12 Corner kick opportunity here for Internacional.
11:15 They need to play it quickly.
11:17 Now we have a little bit of a delay here.
11:19 Are they waiting for this smoke to clear?
11:24 Maybe there's a foul in the penalty area that could give Internacional.
11:29 Here we go.
11:31 More drama here.
11:34 Nope.
11:35 There's no foul, no handball.
11:39 Went off the back of the head of Vidal.
11:42 Here's the service.
11:43 The header!
11:44 What a save by Fabio!
11:49 Luis Adriano got on the end of the service to corner.
11:55 Great ball by Depena.
11:59 It looked like it was going to go off the crossbar, but Fabio doesn't take any risks.
12:03 Gets a touch on to it to put it over the crossbar there.
12:07 Missed opportunity.
12:10 Oh, plenty of space here for John Kennedy.
12:13 John Kennedy 1v1.
12:15 John Kennedy 1v1 against Rochette.
12:16 Dancing around Rochette.
12:17 No, Rochette slaps it away.
12:22 The referee looks at him and watches.
12:24 Last chance for Internacional.
12:26 And that's it!
12:28 The tricolor carioca!
12:32 Two goals to win and they move on to the Libertadores final.
12:37 [crowd cheering]
12:49 Unbelievable!
12:54 When it looked like they were out,
12:59 Hermankano and John Kennedy pulled them back in.
13:03 Those two, Hermankano and John Kennedy,
13:07 are absolutely fantastic clutch players.
