Independiente hosted Ceará this Wednesday at the Libertadores de América-Ricardo Enrique Bochini stadium, in a match that will determine the only place in the round of 16 of the Copa Sudamericana of Group G. The match, which will start at 9:30 pm and that will have Uruguayan Christian Ferreyra’s arbitration, will be televised via the ESPN signal.
The Red came from hitting Deportivo La Guairain a match that served to fill the hopes of Eduardo Domínguez’s team, that reached 12 points and Ceará was behind threewho on Tuesday defeated General Caballero 6-0. Now, the Independiente will definitely win two differences in purpose against the Brazilians, to seal their pass in the South American round of 16.

In Brazil, when Ceará and Independiente met for the first time in April, the team from the city of Fortaleza won 2 to 1. In anticipation of this match in which Domínguez’s staff will play for the semester, it is hoped that DT with a past in Colón will retain the base of the team that ran into the Venezuelans. The only doubt? Juan Cazares or Andres Roa.
