00:00We're underway then here at the Estadio Defensores del Chaco, Sportivo Emiliano against Libertad
00:07for a place in the Commonwealth Sudamericana quarterfinals.
00:10Libertad kicking this off in their change, black and grey shirts going left to right.
00:17Sportivo Emiliano in the white with the blue.
00:22Clipped forward, headed on and falls neatly.
00:28Here's Ramirez.
00:33Very nearly, now wins it cleanly.
00:37Silva down the line for Fernandez.
00:40Fernandez digs out across towards the back post.
00:42Lescano can't get there but the ball is still hooked back into the centre.
00:46Knotted down in the direction of Cardozo.
00:50Right foot of Silva.
00:52It's a good delivery, it's flicked on.
00:55Forward to Camposano who will keep the ball alive.
00:59Working back to Jimenez.
01:01It's a deep cross in towards Cardozo.
01:07Silva, delivery and it's knotted down.
01:11Big calls for a handball.
01:13...finals last night with that win over the Champions League in Iquito.
01:20Excellent academy at Llanos.
01:23A team to break into.
01:25Cardozo with the flick, could be some space in the area.
01:27The bicycle kick.
01:29Silva.
01:33Sanabria which is blocked.
01:36Just waiting for that run really down the left.
01:38It never really came and instead Samudio sets off at the other end.
01:41Samudio shoots, draws a save.
01:43Looking for a break in behind.
01:45On this occasion it doesn't come, but it's sloppily given away.
01:50It's a decent little run down the left.
01:52A cross comes in, it's a wild one.
02:02Good little ball down the left.
02:05Van den Beek tries to push one through for Cardozo.
02:10Unable to do so. Here's Samudio.
02:13Good touch and a good ball down the right hand side.
02:15And an even better covering challenge.
02:17Ball still going to fall for Maes.
02:27Cross from the right.
02:28Two in the box.
02:29Jimenez is underneath the time.
02:31Here is Espinosa trying to get down the left.
02:33Again it's a poor pass, but he is able to hurl the challenge of Aranda.
02:36Espinosa with the cutback.
02:38Onto the edge of the area.
02:41Fernandez turns it wide for Ramirez.
02:44Pulling the ball back.
02:45Tempted volley.
02:46Sliced.
02:48Mariano have been able to deal with those kind of crosses.
02:53Comfortably all evening.
02:54And that has largely been the problem for Libertad.
02:56Halftime whistle goes.
02:58Still goalless.
02:59It's been all Libertad.
03:01Yet they've got nothing to show for it.
03:03Goalless on the...
03:06Second half.
03:07Underway then here.
03:08In Asuncion.
03:11Place in the Commonwealth Sudamericana quarterfinals.
03:13On the line between Sportivo, Ameliano and Libertad.
03:18One goal.
03:22Now they burst forward.
03:23Looking for that space.
03:24And there is a little bit of space.
03:262v1.
03:27And it could be a really good chance here.
03:29Silvers off his line.
03:30And just about gets there at the feet of Juan Jimenez.
03:39A little chest down from Cardoso.
03:41Lescano.
03:43Space for Espinosa.
03:44If he can get there and dig out the cross.
03:47Attempts to.
03:49Headed down by Cardoso.
03:52Here is the veteran again.
03:54He just doesn't have the pace to be able to get away in those kind of situations.
03:59And he's got the ball.
04:00He's got the ball.
04:01He's got the ball.
04:02He's got the ball.
04:03He's got the ball.
04:04He's got the ball.
04:05He's got the ball.
04:06He's got the ball.
04:07He's got the ball.
04:09Still has something to offer at 41 but it's...
04:36And Franco missed the first leg.
04:46Really heralded his next big thing in Paraguayan football.
04:50He's only 24 years old and works something collectively.
04:56Can there be that moment of individual magic?
04:58No crossing towards Franco.
05:00Cleared away.
05:02Back to Ramirez.
05:05Again trying to launch it towards the penalty area.
05:08Melgarreco with the header down.
05:09Merlini helps it on.
05:11Back to Melgarreco.
05:13Here's Merlini again.
05:16Melgarreco round the corner to Merlini.
05:18Chance to cross.
05:20Easily cleared at the near post.
05:26Down. It could drop for Salinas.
05:29Let's go unpunished.
05:32Ball up towards Cardos.
05:33A little knockdown Merlini.
05:37Unable to get there.
05:38It's another one of those counterattacks now.
05:40It's 2v2 momentarily.
05:43It's on the outside.
05:44Shows far too much of it to Diego Vieira.
05:48Even at this...
05:49Sunderland fans may remember Riveros.
06:00Merlini.
06:01Space on the right.
06:02Ramirez can cross.
06:03It's a low one towards Cardoso.
06:04Bubbles inside the six yard box.
06:07And safely into the hands of Rossi.
06:17Cross from the left.
06:18It's come all the way through.
06:22Salinas was stretching.
06:24Down Merlini.
06:26Little body feint.
06:27Clip towards the back post.
06:28Cardoso lets it run.
06:29Drops for Ramirez.
06:32His cross is headed away.
06:35Back with Ramirez.
06:36Another chance to lift this one inside the area.
06:38Cardoso again.
06:39Can't win that one.
06:40A ball could drop to Espinosa who shoots.
06:42It's deflected.
06:43Everyone back now.
06:44And anywhere will do for Emiliano.
06:52It seems they didn't really leave anyone forward anyway.
06:54Don't think it's going to make too much difference.
06:56Cross for Franco.
06:59Was not far away from getting on the end of that cross.
07:16Free kick.
07:17Launch forward.
07:18Don't think many will come to attack it for Emiliano.
07:22It seems they give away the free kick.
07:24They've got to get back into their own half.
07:29Emiliano for that matter.
07:30Spacing behind Salinas.
07:32Salinas is inside the area.
07:33There's a little pull on his shirt.
07:36And Salinas throws himself to the ground.
07:39There's an offside flag against him anyway.
07:41So it would pose the question throughout the entire game to
07:43Liverpool.
07:44You show us what you can do to break us down.
07:48If we can get anything else, great.
07:49But if not, we'll happily go to penalties.
07:51That's exactly what they've done.
08:01Despite their run of trophies domestically.
08:07Struggling in the league at the moment.
08:10What a ground to make up there.
08:11If they go out in this competition,
08:20then it will be alarm bells ringing.
08:22Even though Danilo Garnero has just come back in charge.
08:26They won't be expecting to go all the way in the
08:28Sudamericana.
08:29But they would certainly be expecting, having got this
08:31tight, to reach the quarter-finals.
08:34Once you're down, facing Boca Juniors or Cruzeiro,
08:37whoever wins that one later on.
08:39Libertad will be underdogs.
08:40But this one, heavy from 12 yards.
08:47He also sees his effort saved.
08:52Perhaps the mind games did work.
08:57Might just have handed Emiliano an early advantage.
09:04Down the middle.
09:06Defenders to choose from.
09:11Down the middle.
09:19Very similar, in fact, to Cardoso's.
09:22Down the middle.
09:23Actually gets a touch off.
09:25Silva's legs on the way through.
09:27Just had too much on it.
09:32Has to score, you feel.
09:39And he does indeed find the back of the net.
09:46In the shootout.
09:51I don't think Martins Silva was particularly enamoured.
09:57He didn't see a huge amount of action.
10:02Can he help his team stay in front in the shootout?
10:06He can.
10:07silver the wrong way they're keeping their cool so far
10:20scorer of the equalizer in that first leg one week ago
10:26and scorer from the penalty spot here tonight
10:32back to 2-2
10:37cool penalty from Espinosa
10:45Salinas to restore the advantage then he blazes over the crossbar
10:52we're back as we as Richard Salinas lifts this one into the stands behind the goal
11:03Martin Silva not required to be the hero on this occasion
11:09simply watch on like his teammate advantage Melga Rekord
11:15tiny run-up just the one step for Melga Rekord and into the top corner that is sensational
11:22that is confidence one-step penalty and he just whips it up there into the high
11:30maybe as far in the corner as
11:35pressure penalty
11:39and thumped into the back of the net by Pablo Aranda a spot kick
11:46it's sudden death from here on in
11:53and done that he's felt the pressure
11:58any edge libertad towards a quarterfinal he can't it's a tame penalty that's saved by Rossi
12:06towards that bottom corner Rossi reads it and is left with the most comfortable of saves
12:11and Sportivo and Meliano who have played for the penalty shootout
12:26and now one kick away they take a place in the commonwealth sudamericana quarterfinals
12:32and he puts it over the crossbar
12:36the pressure too much
12:38for the second time Emiliano blaze over the crossbar
13:01Franco into the back of the net this time Rossi doesn't guess correctly
13:08and the pressure all back on Sportivo Emiliano finally back on his goal line finally ready
13:18for this penalty to be taken Saldo Maes to keep Emiliano in it and he puts it over as well
13:25libertada through but they were made to suffer
13:30but
13:33Martin Silva in the end didn't have to make a save three
13:37penalties over the crossbar and libertad clinch it 4-3 in the shootout
13:51far from convincing for libertad and they'll be heavier crusader in the quarterfinals but
13:57they're in with a shot
14:09in the end perhaps the pressure just too much for Sportivo Emiliano
14:16three occasions three critical penalties Salinas
14:21Gonzalez and Maes on all three
14:31failing to hit the target lifting the ball over the crossbar and ultimately handing victory for
14:37libertad
14:51so
