Shot by the questions, just a few weeks ago, Sebastian Battaglia seemed to be out of Mouth. Today no one disputes it. On Sunday, champion of the League Cup. Now, classified to the round of 16 of the Liberators as the first of Group E.
There was no other alternative for Boca than to beat Deportivo Cali. Another result left him on the road too early in the competition that obsesses him. And the xeneizes go if they responded. They imposed the conditions from the beginning to the end.
the secret of Mouth He was in the middle of the field. There the task became imposing. Alan Varela. That 20-year-old youth rose on the night of the Bombonera, anticipating, removing, playing and kicking a lot from the outside, always pushing his team up.
Alan Varela He had tried the goal four times in the first half. One of those shots had hit a stick. However, his number one attempt of the second stage triggered the cry of victory, of classification. The ball surprised the goalkeeper William De Amores and got under the body.
Mouth deserved to win by more goals. He found answers again in the area where he had been suffering the most weaknesses. It is that Varela was not alone there. The Paraguayan also wore Oscar Romero in driving, nuanced with deployment. He lacked greater clarity within the area. That’s why he didn’t score and that tight 1-0 ended up celebrating with all his might, as if it were a relief.
Today, from 13 (18 Spanish time), Mouth You will know who will be your rival for the round of 16. It is that at that time the crossings will be raffled. The former will face the latter. In a pot, the eight leaders: Palmeiras, River, Flamengo, Students, Atlético Mineiro, Libertad, Colón and Boca. In the other, the eight escorts: Deportes Tolima, Talleres, Fortaleza, Paranaense, Corinthians, Emelec, Vélez and Cerro Porteño. The best of the Copa Libertadores is coming.
