An own goal from Colonia Square gave him the title of Super Cup from Uruguayan football to Penarol in a match that was played this Sunday in the city of Maldonado (southeast) and that lasted until the second half of the extension.
In an unfortunate play inside the small area for the Colonial team, in which the player Jorge Ayala tried to clear a ball that finally ended up going through his own goal, it was enough for the Aurinegro team to add a new title to their showcases and the first in this 2022.
However, the ‘patablanca’ team developed the first two times in which they generated scoring chances despite coming to this match with the vast majority of their leading players absent and with youngsters from the lower categories.
For its part, Peñarol, which disputes the summer tournament of the Ría de la Plata in its country, dominated the first minutes of the match against a team that was playing its first match of the year and that had not seen activity since the beginning of December 2021.
For the coal team, goalkeeper Kevin Dawson stood out, who was able to stop the attacks of the team from the city of Cologne to keep the goal at zero, achieving the result that allowed them to go to extra time. For the Plaza Colonia, the experienced player Nicolás Dibble stood out, accompanied by the author of the goal against Jorge Ayala, who achieved clear arrivals at Dawson’s goal.
The Uruguayan Soccer Super Cup brought together on this occasion the Uruguayan champion, Peñarol, and the winner of the Opening Tournament and Uruguayan runner-up, Plaza Colonia.
