00:05Players on their way out, it's Platense against Coquimbo Unido for a spot in the
00:11Commonwealth Liverpool's quarter-finals. It's the first leg this evening, and we'll
00:16meet again in a week's time to ultimately decide this tie.
00:22In other games, two last night, but we're underway here in Vicente Lopez. Platense
00:26against Coquimbo Unido in the last 16. South America's biggest and best of
00:35competition in the world of Libertadores. Platense all kept in play. Saborido, an early cross, the best
00:44defending, but eventually hacked away in games, domestically at least, without a win,
00:50which is why Walter Zanino ended up leaving his position just before the
00:55Libertadores knockout phase. The last win, in fact, coming against Corinthians back in
01:04May in this competition.
01:11Thrown forward by Silva. Doesn't reach its target.
01:16Big kick, however, is given to the home team. And a yellow card's coming out here after just a couple
01:21of minutes.
01:23Very early yellow card.
01:28Pablo Rodriguez, the player into the book. He raises this arm and catches the side of the head of Pablo
01:36Ferreira.
01:39I don't think there's any malice there, but the 19-year-old on his first is Zapiola.
01:45Zapiola on the edge of the box. Lays it into Merlini. Lays it back for a shot.
01:50It's drilled just wide in the end as Pablo Ferreira runs onto it in space.
01:55Well worked by Platense. Zapiola and Merlini involved. Merlini does well here.
02:02Just teased up the shot for Pablo Ferreira. Dragging it wide of the target.
02:09The 21-year-old.
02:15He's rode a couple of challenges, and it's worked out very nicely.
02:18Zapiola. Zapiola opens it up down the left. Chance here for Platense.
02:22Trilled in at the near post.
02:25I think he came off the legs in the end of Diego Sanchez.
02:36It's given away badly. Chance here for the visitors. Their first attack is cut back.
02:41Prato is shot blocked by Cuesta.
02:45All the hard work from the opening 16 minutes for Platense almost undone in an instant.
02:52Salido. Robbed of the ball. Advantage being played across on the left.
02:57Zapiola again. Merlini back to Zapiola. Space to shoot. Does just that.
03:02And it's awkwardly turned round the post by Diego Sanchez.
03:06Furious with his team that Zapiola was afforded the space to get the shot away.
03:13Came through that crowd of players.
03:16A little tickle off the toes of Camargo on the way through as well, perhaps.
03:25Unconventional.
03:28Sabiola lines up the long throw.
03:31Menezes the target. Loses out in the air. It's away by Riveros.
03:35Moisting back into the box over the head of Menezes this time.
03:39Sanchez comes to collect.
03:43In the near post.
03:47Final touch. Bouncing off the yellow shirt.
03:51For a goal kick according to Menezes.
03:55Real tussle inside the box.
04:18Quickly anyway with Camargo out of position.
04:21He races back into the midfield.
04:24It's away from Riveros now.
04:26Crosses from the right.
04:27In towards Menezes.
04:27Head on goal.
04:28And that is a super header.
04:30Menezes gives Platense the lead.
04:32With a header that Martin Palermo would have been proud of.
04:37It's a stunning goal from the squids.
04:42And first blood goes the way of Platense.
04:51Now first goal for his new club.
04:54And what a time to find it.
04:56Sabarido does brilliantly.
04:58It's a super, super cross.
05:01But look at that for a header.
05:04Rising above his marker.
05:06Who's no way near tight enough.
05:08And that is a wonderful angle of the header.
05:12That leaves Sanchez helpless.
05:17Luciano Jimenez.
05:20Writing his name.
05:21Into the Platense history books.
05:25In what is only his third appearance for the club.
05:29Platense won.
05:30Coquimbo Nido nil.
05:31More sensitive one.
05:32Marc Thiago do now.
05:53And that's all a little bit silly.
05:57Manero having words.
06:00with Sebastian Gallani as he was on the floor or Gasola even and Gasola quickly getting to his
06:07feet and reacting prompting a theatrical response from Bautista Merlini which may well get them both
06:16into the referee's notebook completely avoidable it is indeed a yellow card each I don't think
06:24either one of them can have too many complaints
06:28the initial one Gasola making the most of a little arm from Merlini
06:36trailing arm that just catches him on the cheek Merlini then says something to him as he's on the
07:00move said in this before half time everything he does just
07:04He's going to try and pound things down a bit here.
07:18Here's the break on the last few seconds.
07:22Blocked by Sabarido, an offside flag that has gone up.
07:27And aside from the set pieces, Coquimorido
07:29haven't really got going in the attack.
07:31Badly missing, Nikolas Johansson.
07:37Injured, not available this evening,
07:39hence why Lukas Pratt was starting.
07:47But the half-time whistle blows right on cue.
07:53Plotence heads into the dressing room in front.
07:57Good value for their lead.
07:59Plotence one, Coquimorido on ill.
08:02Luciano Jimenez with the goal, a fabulous header.
08:05Ten minutes before the break.
08:07We're back underway.
08:08Plotence one, Coquimorido on ill.
08:12In the Commonwealth Libertadores' round of 16.
08:17Luciano Jimenez, header, shortly before half-time.
08:20The difference at the break.
08:22Only touch for Lukas Pratt on a good turn and pass down the right-hand side.
08:26Releasing Savala, who was kept very quiet in the first half.
08:29Savala turning, trying to get away from Silva.
08:34His cross is blocked.
08:35Now for an early corner.
08:43He's crossed in.
08:44That will keep alive.
08:47Nice to shoot from well outside the box.
08:49Could fall.
08:50Suddenly Silva was alert to that loose ball.
08:53The flag has gone up anyway.
08:55Just for a second there.
08:57Did look as though it was going to fall to a yellow shirt.
08:59It all comes from that miss-hit crossfield pass by Salinas.
09:05And then maybe there's a couple of yellow shirts in an offside position
09:09when that long-range effort comes in.
09:12A real rarity.
09:14It's here for Prattor.
09:15Prattor's in behind.
09:16Prattor!
09:17Saved by the keeper.
09:18And again, an offside flag will go up after the fact.
09:32Well offside.
09:34There's Prattop.
09:35As he's played in by Luis Riveros.
09:43Inside a little exposed here.
09:44Here's Savala once again down the right.
09:46Savala will get there to find the cross.
09:48Hangs it up towards Prattop.
09:49Goes to attack the ball.
09:50Climbs above Vasquez.
09:52Can't direct the header goalwards.
09:58Getting Savala involved at the start of the second half.
10:02Has seen Coquimbonido look a little bit brighter.
10:11Straight off the bench.
10:12Releases Prattor in behind.
10:14Prattor!
10:14Chance here!
10:15And that's a fantastic block.
10:19Patense looking for a flag again.
10:26And they may well have got one.
10:28It'll be interesting to see.
10:31Prattop.
10:32It's very close.
10:34And unselfishly then looks to play in.
10:36Riveros.
10:38But what a bit of defending.
10:39By Juan Saborido.
10:42Alert to the pass.
10:43And a cross to make that block.
10:44And deny Riveros regardless.
10:53Relepas.
10:54He's going to take it himself.
10:58It's a delivery.
10:59Headed towards goal by Cuesta.
11:06And then the penalty spot drops there.
11:08And there's a foul right on the edge of the box.
11:10Not according to the referee.
11:11And eventually he's given it the way.
11:13One of the visitors.
11:15With a handball.
11:15As Pareda collapsed under the second challenge.
11:29The referee was very, very well placed.
11:34Also it's Manero.
11:37Actually might even be inside the area.
11:39But Manero makes the most of maybe a slight touch.
11:54That was the better angle.
11:57And this is a massive moment.
12:00In this tie.
12:06Riveros.
12:08Catches him.
12:09And it didn't take long for the referee to look at that.
12:11And I think this is going to be a penalty.
12:13It is.
12:16Letense.
12:18Gifted the opportunity here to double their lead.
12:22A rash challenge base.
12:24From 12 yards out.
12:28Steady's himself.
12:30Manero saved.
12:31The follow up.
12:32Saved again.
12:33A double save.
12:34Of monumental proportions by Diego Sanchez.
12:38Sauer.
12:39Saves once.
12:41Saves twice.
12:42And ensures this stays at 1-0.
12:52Up quickly for the penalty save.
12:54And then just makes himself as big as possible to block that from Nicolas.
12:58Away from Juan.
12:59Pulls it back.
13:00Chance to shoot.
13:01Saved by Sanchez again.
13:03It's come up big late on for Coquimbo.
13:04And Ido in short position.
13:07Chance here at the death.
13:08And it's an equalizer.
13:12Heartbreak for Platense.
13:14As Vanela strikes.
13:15In stoppage time.
13:16The final minute of the game.
13:20And it won't be two wins from two Martin.
13:23It'll be.
13:26A draw here.
13:28In Vicente Lopez.
13:30The Padela.
13:31The Argentine off the bench.
13:36Strike so, so late in the day.
13:40A hammer blow.
13:42For Platense.
13:43With the first shot on target.
13:46Beating Juan Pablo Cosani.
13:50And drawing the Chileans level.
13:52Sure he's onside.
13:54He certainly looks so from that angle.
13:58It's not a long line.
13:59Victor Cuesta's desperate lunge.
14:01Couldn't prevent the ball getting through to the number ten.
14:04And there was just too much on the finish.
14:07From Valela.
14:11It's not really of course be checked.
14:22It's close.
14:22Certainly from that angle.
14:23it's not along the line but it looks as though he's level and it's so so tight you look at
14:29the
14:29lines being drawn on the smallest of margins it has been confirmed is a goal the five minutes as
14:36a result have come and gone but it's potentially one cooking boy and he don't want it feels
