In a hot, emotional and changing match, Estudiantes fell 4-3 to Huachipato and were eliminated from the Copa Libertadores. Now they will have to wait for the Chileans to beat Gremio on the next date and then beat Porto Alegre to continue at least in the Copa Sudamericana.
Estudiantes did not take advantage of their good minutes in the initial stage and paid too dearly for it. Quickly, at 12 minutes, he took advantage with a header from Javier Correa after a cross from Thiago Palacios. But the place lacked voracity. And Huachipato celebrated on the two occasions he approached the rival goal. The tie was a great goal: Maxi Rodríguez, an interesting 23-year-old Chilean forward, controlled from behind and inside the area with his left foot and scored with his right foot.
Equality stunned Estudiantes. Above, in the last one, Zaid Romero scored against him when trying to clear a cross.
A peculiarity: it is the third goal against scored by the 24-year-old left-handed central defender, who will leave in the middle of the year for Bruges in Belgium, in the 61 games he played with the Pincha shirt. The previous ones were against River, in the final of the Argentine Super Cup in Córdoba, and against Independiente, for the local tournament.
The match started with everything: Javier Correa equalized after 4 minutes and Maximiliano Gutiérrez made it 3-2 for the Chileans. Parity was scored by Santiago Ascacibar, at 18 minutes.
Estudiantes looked for him everywhere because the tie was of little use to them. But the worst was losing. And in the last, and against, Carlos Villanueva made the final 4-3.
Estudiantes was left without a chance in Libertadores, but embraces minimal hope in Sudamericana. They will have to wait for Huachipato to beat Gremio in Chile and then Domínguez’s team will have to win no matter what in Brazil. Difficult.
