00:00An accident in the fall, he's sad and then passed away a couple of days later.
00:21Credit to Nicolas Ramirez letting that moment of tribute last a bit longer.
00:27Certainly heavy hearts here tonight in Guayaquil.
00:31Kickoff between Barcelona and Red Bull Bragantino.
00:36Attempt goes missing there, now it could be Barcelona on the attack.
00:39Castillo racing towards the corner flag.
00:42He's tracked by Henry Mosquera.
00:43Castillo to the byline.
00:45That's a decent cross in.
00:46Brilliant save.
00:47Clayton still alive.
00:49Diaz.
00:51Stoppage of the match since this chance a few minutes ago.
00:54Castillo creating it.
00:56And Corozo leaping well to get ahead to the cross.
01:00He's up over Nata Mendes.
01:02His header was right at Clayton.
01:06He did well after he moved to Red Bull.
01:12He's trying to keep up here but is unable to.
01:14It's well done by Corozo to find the feet of Preciado.
01:17Cuts it towards the penalty spot.
01:19Right back to Preciado.
01:22Get a shot off for Adonis Preciado.
01:25In a bit of a goal drought at the moment.
01:27Barcelona number 7.
01:31Unable to get that on target but see there.
01:34Some dirt flying.
01:36Slowed up well by Ramirez.
01:38Mosquera.
01:39He sees Elino but he can't pick the pass.
01:44Able to retrieve Elino.
01:46He goes from distance.
01:47Elino!
01:49What a goal for Red Bull Bragantino!
01:53Looked as though the chance had gone.
01:56Elino sticks it into the top corner.
02:00It's brilliant for Braga.
02:03And the visitors drop first blood in Guayaquil.
02:11Take a bow Elino.
02:14That is a super strike.
02:19Out of nowhere.
02:23He unleashes a laser.
02:25It's curling.
02:26It's dipping away from.
02:28Reunited with Diaz.
02:29And he finds the number 10.
02:31The captain continues it on.
02:32Leonar Sosa now.
02:33Finds Corozo.
02:34Corozo's cross!
02:36Off the crossbar from Rivero.
02:39Diaz picks it up.
02:41Scoops it back in.
02:43Headed high by Pedro Henrique.
02:45From Octavio Rivero.
02:47He was inches away from an equalizer.
02:50Look at the run from the Uruguayan.
02:53Faked initially towards the back stick.
02:56And then flashed across his defender towards the front post.
03:00That's where he met it with the head.
03:02And he's unlucky not to put it on frame.
03:05Well he put it literally on frame.
03:08Crashing off the crossbar and up and away from Clayton's goal.
03:13That close to level terms.
03:17Clayton clutches the ball gratefully in his hands.
03:23It's a debut for Octavio Rivero.
03:25Preciado.
03:28Dip at the shoulder.
03:29Preciado's cross!
03:30It's a good one!
03:31Clayton commanding his area.
03:33Defenders will love that.
03:35From a goalkeeper.
03:36We've seen his threat in the air already several times here tonight.
03:43Well orchestrated by Preciado.
03:46That little dip at the shoulder creating the room for the cross.
03:49Clayton able to watch it into his gloves.
03:51The pressure is mounting here as half an hour has just elapsed in Guayaquil.
03:56Another opportunity coming for Barcelona.
03:59Picked up by Leoni Souza.
04:01Preciado.
04:03Through the legs!
04:06Barcelona level!
04:13Preciado to Corozo to make it Barcelona 1, Red Bull Bragantino 1.
04:25Two hometown heroes combining in spectacular fashion.
04:31A clever nutmeg pass from Preciado.
04:39Mateusz Fernandes.
04:43Drops one over the top.
04:44Nata Mendes.
04:45Lovely give and go.
04:46Nata Mendes towards the penalty spot!
04:48Big chance!
04:49Next with the Nata Mendes cross.
04:51It was fabulously done.
04:53On the top of the screen between Nata Mendes and El NiƱo.
04:59And it was just bouncing.
05:00Bouncing it!
05:06Thiago Borbasson for the visitors as it's Barcelona who start in possession from the second half kick.
05:12They've of course switched ends.
05:14The Canaria Yellow going right to left here in front of their home fans in Guayaquil.
05:201-1 at halftime.
05:23Third place Libertadores finish.
05:26Preciado in towards Rivero.
05:28Went for the heel flick.
05:29Corozo wasn't given by the referee.
05:39Diaz to deliver.
05:40In swinger towards the near post.
05:42Header one by Preciado.
05:44Of this series.
05:45Moves on to face Corinthians.
05:50Borbasson.
05:51Luciens.
05:54Borbasson.
05:56Tame efforts as he duffed it into the grounds en route.
06:02By Ariel Olan.
06:04And Barcelona.
06:07Lincoln.
06:09Good ball in.
06:10Great save!
06:11Buray!
06:12He denies Lucas Evangelista.
06:15Eights.
06:18First time cross from Juninho.
06:19Juninho Capishaba is sumptuous.
06:22Just inviting that powerful downward header.
06:26Unfortunately for Braga and for Lucas Evangelista.
06:29He could only aim it directly at the Barcelona goalkeeper.
06:33Quick reactions to get his hands low.
06:36And not give up a rebound.
06:38He had to make the challenge.
06:42Lucas Evangelista.
06:44Through the middle.
06:45Juninho Capishaba denied.
06:46Borbasson picks it up.
06:47Lincoln steers it wide.
06:50Buray to the rescue.
06:53Offside we shall see.
06:55It was Lucas Evangelista who burst beyond the midfield challenger of Arroyo.
07:02Juninho Capishaba denied.
07:04Natan Mendes fires it in from the throw.
07:07Elinho.
07:08Wild swing.
07:09Juninho Capishaba.
07:10There's some half-hearted appeals for a handball.
07:13Nearly another goal created out of nowhere.
07:15Elinho's wild attempts.
07:17Now it's in behind.
07:19Chance for Braga.
07:24It goes begging from Luan Candido.
07:27Down for Chalat.
07:29Back to Preciado.
07:31Chalat making the run in behind.
07:33Preciado curls one in.
07:35Headed away on the six.
07:36Now Lincoln can't quite get his clearance away.
07:40Still alive here for Barcelona.
07:43Not anymore.
07:44Face.
07:45Paints the picture in the ends.
07:49Kept alive by the work right there of Oyola.
07:53And he had stars in his eyes.
07:55Rangel.
07:59Not a bad hit.
08:04Not a good one either.
08:11Into the final minute of
08:13Rangel can't sort his feet out.
08:16Oyola sprinting over.
08:18He goes down for the third time in quick succession.
08:21Didn't get the whistle in any of the three.
08:23And now it appears the full-time whistle will be imminent from Nicolas Ramirez, our center official.
08:31Ball in hand.
08:33And that brings the first leg to a close here tonight in Guayaquil.
