Emelec Defeated Sport Huancayo and moves to the second round
With the victory last nigth at the Capwell Stadium, the Blue team steps into the second phase of the South American Cup and join Liga de Loja, who the night before eliminated Deportivo Lara from Venezuela.
Today Barcelona will define its key between Mineros de Guayana at the Monumental Stadium (2-2 in the first leg in Venezuela) and tomorrow Independiente del Valle will face Anzoategui in Venezuela after a tie with no goals in the first match in Quito.
In last night’s game, Enner Valencia led Emelec to the classification to the second round, scoring 3 of the 4 goals against Peruvian Sport Huancayo, which had also fallen in the first leg (1-3). The fourth goal was achieved by Angel Mena.
The blue team beat the rivals that lacked arrivals to the opposite area and had trouble facing the “millionares”.
In the next round, the team led by Gustavo Quinteros will face Chile’s Universidad Catolica, which last night beat Paraguay’s Cerro Porteno by the minimum difference.
