The Copa Sudamericana is taking shape. The additional ‘complication’ of giving direct qualification to the round of 16 only to the first in each group makes the equation difficult. So, this Tuesday, Mouth took an important step by establishing their home field against Paraguay’s Sportivo Trinidense and Juniors of Argentina He suffered a hard slap at home which complicates things.
For Diego Martínez’s Xeneize everything has been going swimmingly for a couple of weeks. He got his situation back on track League Cup (on Friday he will be able to complete the qualification for the quarterfinals) and this Tuesday he took another step towards his greatest continental goal, the South American title. With the 1-0 victory, thanks to the boy’s header Aaron Anselmappreciated last week’s draw in Potosí, against Nacional.
Obviously now they will have to wait for Fortaleza (who beat Trinidense as a guest and play this Wednesday at home) to leave points in that trip through Bolivia. But the four points put them at the top of Group D.
Quite the opposite is Argentinos, who had won in Paraguay on their debut, but suffered a strong slap at home from Racing de Montevideo, who beat them 3 to 0. In the other duel of group F, Corinthians did not had mercy at San Pablo with Nacional Guaraní (4-0), to remain leaders together with the Uruguayans and with a better goal difference.
On Wednesday, for the second continental stage, there will be the presentations of Defensa y Justicia against Bolivia Always Ready, and of Racing Club against the Brazilian Bragantino, both at home.
