00:00 What an atmosphere, what a night of football that we have in store for you.
00:11 In Stadio Jorge Luis Hirschi, the venue.
00:15 So they get underway, it's not the last games in the group for Estudiantes and Juanchi Pato,
00:24 due to the altered schedule in the Comibol Libertadores in group C.
00:28 It is the Argentinian side in the traditional red and white stripes with the black shorts and black and red socks.
00:34 Mancuso, trying the alternative angle but the looping header from Guido Carrillo, straight into the arms of Martin Parra.
00:45 Aracetico Paganayense, the last round of games in the group stage.
00:51 Dealt with by the Estudiantes defence once more, Maximiliano Rodriguez's cross shouldn't have caused that many problems.
00:58 Suddenly there's an early chance for the visitors.
01:00 Physical perhaps with Romero, the first defender.
01:08 Sepplveda trying to hold him up again but Palacios does well, does really well.
01:14 Simple as you like for Javier Correa.
01:20 Created by the Uruguayan, finished off by the Argentinian forward.
01:25 Estudiantes have the breakthrough early on.
01:28 It's another goal against the Chileans for the 31-year-old.
01:35 And it's the perfect start for the hosts this evening.
01:44 How much space he's got, Palacios just to look to pick out his man and Correa peels off perfectly.
01:51 Finds the room, it's just a guiding header into the bottom corner past the keeper.
01:56 They need to try and force the power onto it, the cross does that.
02:00 Just send it in the right direction and send it home.
02:07 (Crowd chanting)
02:15 Of course won it as well with River Plate back in 2018.
02:20 That's a lovely turn and a fine finish from Maximiliano Rodriguez.
02:24 And once again a goal comes from nowhere for Hachipato in the Combi Ball.
02:30 Lutadores barely posed a threat tonight but it only takes Rodriguez a moment to work his magic.
02:38 Finally opens his account in Combi Ball competitions and it's a very good way to do so.
02:53 Tees it up for himself and on the turn finds that bottom corner beautifully.
02:59 (Crowd chanting)
03:03 Great control on that strike, didn't lash at it, picked a spot and guided it there with the right boot.
03:12 This changes the group a fair bit, certainly works into the hands of the strongest.
03:24 Blocked off and Palmezano comes forward and the blue shirts are coming forward in greater numbers here now.
03:29 They're certainly buoyed by that strike.
03:32 Gutierrez, a lot of options to aim at, SeterƩ coming.
03:37 Some are staying forward including Romero, it was in towards him, it's not a bad hit that from As-Kassiba.
03:43 Better save, Gutierrez.
03:50 Excellent work to ride the challenge of Benedetti, oh it's an own goal!
03:54 Turned in by Zayed Romero.
03:58 And unbelievably the Chilean visitors have flipped the script in this first half.
04:04 From 1-0 down to 2-1 up just before half time.
04:17 I think Gutierrez is as surprised as anybody to see that one drift in at the near post.
04:22 And everybody in red and white in this stadium is as surprised as anyone to see the scoreline.
04:33 With Estudiantes suddenly trailing.
04:36 There's no real need for that leg to be sticking out like that.
04:43 No pressure on Romero.
04:47 But no one gave him the nod, no communication.
04:50 Battle starts now.
04:52 So we get underway for the second period here in La Plata, Estudiantes playing from left to right for this second half.
04:59 Trailing by two goals to one thanks to the late strikes from Maximiliano Rodriguez.
05:04 And the own goal from Zayed Romero.
05:06 Trying to bolster up that sideline defence that was so exploited by Maximiliano.
05:15 I have a feeling it's going to be some service from Sosa rather than an effort on goal.
05:18 A lot of pushing and shoving, Romero trying to make amends.
05:21 Awkward header back across goal and turned in by Correa from close range.
05:29 Some Torrid defending dealing with the set piece.
05:38 And Correa just has to touch it home for his second of the night and his third against the Chileans.
05:43 And this is Comet ball, Lipton-Ores.
05:45 No question marks about anybody being offside with the initial ball in.
05:52 Correa is just lurking, waiting for that to come across. It's well worked.
05:57 And Luciano Lozio helping to provide.
06:01 And Parra rather unconvincing dealing with the danger too.
06:11 There might be another one here for the Chileans if the Ciudadans don't get the defensive heads into gear.
06:16 Well smothered in the end on the edge of the box. No room for Rodriguez to work any more magic.
06:21 There might be some more coming though. It's a lovely ball back to Falmizano.
06:24 Laid off for Gutierrez. It's 3-2.
06:27 They just won't go away this evening.
06:33 And Maximiliano Gutierrez, who caused the second, provides the third.
06:41 And it's such a quick response from Machi Pato.
06:45 As Estudiantes caught off guard and not for the first time tonight.
06:50 Just never dealt with the danger.
07:01 Falmizano's lurking on the edge of the box. It's really unselfish to lay it off
07:07 when others would have perhaps tried to force an effort from that position.
07:11 And it's calm from Gutierrez with three defenders around him to pick his spot.
07:17 Palacios.
07:19 Cetere.
07:22 Well if that was an attempt on goal it probably wasn't the best idea from Edwin Cetere.
07:31 Cetere.
07:36 Ball down. Palacios will continue though.
07:39 Shot is blocked. Cetere staying down.
07:42 Oh and then there's a strong shove in from Palacios as well in the aftermath.
07:47 It's going to be a yellow card showing for the challenge on Cetere.
07:51 It's all boiling over though on this near side because Askeciba has come in and
07:56 certainly felt that...
07:58 Hangs it in there. Four in there and it's beautifully taken by Askeciba.
08:05 He was the late arrival and he was the one who so confidently tucked it home.
08:15 It's another high quality finish and a night littered with them.
08:20 Just comes in late. Nobody covering him.
08:29 Didn't have to take it first time but fancied it on the volley.
08:35 Didn't lash at it. Almost comes off the calf muscle in fact but it doesn't matter.
08:46 It's to the answer to back level once again.
08:49 Cetere nods it down.
08:56 Switching to this right flank. Really the first time we've seen him here.
09:02 It's a spectacular effort from Askeciba but...
09:05 The eggs in the Liptadores basket as the glancing header is easily collected by Matthias Mertens.
09:16 Saez brings it under control. Villanueva's in a good position. Can go left as well.
09:21 He finds Villanueva. Oh would you believe it in the final minutes!
09:25 Quachipato stealing!
09:27 Could go left or right and he took the right option in every sense of the word.
09:36 Sebastian Saez the provider, Carlo Villanueva the finisher.
09:41 And it's going to be an unbelievable result for the Chileans on the road once more in the Libertadores.
09:53 A first goal for his club. A first goal on his debut in this competition.
09:58 He's onside from the looks of it.
10:00 And he's the calmest man in the stadium one on one.
10:05 And it all unravels for Estudiantes right at the desk.
10:19 There's no chance for a reply on this evening.
10:32 8.
10:33 The Libertadores.
10:35 And it's going to be an unbelievable result for the Chileans on the road once more in the Libertadores.
10:37 And it's going to be an unbelievable result for the Chileans on the road once more in the Libertadores.
10:38 And it's going to be an unbelievable result for the Chileans on the road once more in the Libertadores.
