00:01It is an all-Brazil tie in this round of 16 clash in Belo Horizonte. Cruzeiro, the Foxes, Aposa against
00:19Flamengo Mingao.
00:22Flamengo get us on the way, there's a thunderous atmosphere at the Mineral.
00:26Now Cruzeiro against the reigning champions Flamengo.
00:30Two of the big spenders in Brazilian football go head-to-head
00:34to replace in the quarterfinals of the Libertadores.
00:37Rich points from a possible 18 and conceded in six games just twice.
00:43Gonzalo Plata.
00:55It's through safely to the hands of Otavio.
01:01It's just a spread play and finds Kenny Arrojo with a bit of space.
01:05Here's the Colombian, the Ecuadorian.
01:08It's a great ball in.
01:10Big calls for offside.
01:14That was the 21-year-old Wesley ghosting in.
01:22That should have been in the back of the net.
01:27Emerson Royal just ball-watching.
01:31And Arthur Georges can't believe it hasn't gone in.
01:34Neither of his family roots rather than where he grew up and culturally.
01:43He's Brazilian.
01:44And that's the first yellow card for Adilson Enrique on Bruno Enrique.
01:56This could be reviewed by VAR.
02:04Studs up.
02:09Kenny Arrojo.
02:13To test Rossi from range.
02:16And it got a deflection on the way through.
02:18And the Ecuadorian wins his side a corner kick.
02:23It's getting past Samolino with real ease.
02:30We've got William looking to keep the attack alive.
02:32To make the most of the hype that's gone forward for this set piece.
02:37Forza Mateos Enrique.
02:39Was there for the taking, wasn't it?
02:46He sat up beautifully for him.
02:50Perfect height.
02:5220 minutes on the clock.
02:53Goalless.
02:54At the Mineral.
02:55Samolino.
02:58Forces the save from Ottavio.
03:05Expensive signing.
03:06Samolino.
03:07Grabbed the headlines when he joined from Atletico Madrid.
03:12Just going wide.
03:14Ottavio certainly not going to take any risks.
03:20Pereda.
03:24Pereda for the best Não tinha à OUT.
03:25Caos George goes to ground.
03:26Big calls from the stands.
03:29Fa går per is not interested.
03:33Caos George is still down in the area.
03:51That deft touch from Mattel's Pareda that we've been waiting to see that just somehow unlocks some space.
04:08Jorginho, easily dispossessed, this is Kenia Rosso. Goes for goal himself. He's just dragged it wide off at Rossi's far
04:18post. But it all stems from Jorginho uncharacteristically losing the ball in the danger zone.
04:30Really well done by Kai Jorge to Flamengo. But now Arascheta with a real opening now for Flamengo. It's Bruno
04:38Enrique!
04:42Blast his shot. Went for power. And again, you see how it was Jorginho at the other end. Here is
04:53Mateus Enrique, who loses the ball in such a dangerous position.
05:10There is a Cruzeiro player down, but Flamengo player on it and Lucas now. Jorginho.
05:19Arascheta. Ball clearance by Jonathan Jesus. Comes to Eric Pulgar.
05:30And Falcón.
05:34And that is the end of this first half that has been enthralling.
06:03And we are back underway then.
06:08Goalless between Cruzeiro and Flamengo.
06:14In this first tie in the round of 16 in Libertadores.
06:20Jorginho, formerly off Flamengo. That's a lovely ball there for Samolino.
06:27Excellent run.
06:30As we are talking of expensive signings, he joined from Atletico Madrid.
06:36Did really well to get there in between.
06:38Just as Emerson Royal is doing now.
06:42Right back. Takes a tumble.
06:45I've had a case there, you know, against Wesley.
06:49But there's also the feeling that he just lost his footing.
06:56It's patient from Cruzeiro. It's Kenny Rogers.
06:59He turns in brilliantly. That is a sensational goal by Cruzeiro.
07:06The architect Kenny Arosho.
07:09Utterly brilliant.
07:15They're just reward for asking all the questions.
07:23And how about that from the 20 year old who just moments ago produced an outrageous display of skill to
07:30control a cross field pass.
07:32And here he is scoring one of the goals of the week.
07:42Nothing that Rossi could do.
07:46And here he is scoring one of the goals.
07:47Sells Samolino the dummy.
07:49And finishes.
07:51With an exquisite shot into the top top corner.
08:03There's a lot of football still to be played.
08:05But with that bit of skill.
08:08That lit up this match just moments ago.
08:11And then this goal.
08:12And look at the reaction for the people behind.
08:15Bruno Enrique.
08:16Inside left channel where he thrives.
08:19Jorginho.
08:21Another save from Otavio.
08:30Had the space didn't he?
08:32Just outside the area.
08:39There it's messy.
08:41Untidy on the edge of the box.
08:43It's at Lucas now.
08:45This is the save from Otavio.
08:52He seems to be enjoying himself.
09:00Amolino leaves it for Lucas.
09:05Oh it's off the crossbar.
09:07And it is in the back of the net.
09:09And how about that for an introduction.
09:11For Lucas Paquetá.
09:13And this will be.
09:15Debated.
09:16And argued about.
09:18By Cruzeiro.
09:20Flamengo.
09:22And that's what they think of it.
09:24Paquetá puts Flamengo back on level terms.
09:30The L. D.
09:31He scored himself.
09:33His header off the crossbar.
09:38It all goes back.
09:41To.
09:42What Arthur Geog öğowners was not a foul.
09:44committed by his centre-back
09:57we talked about the urgency that Flamengo were showing two players
10:03preparing to come on great ball by Leo Pereira and here's a great save by
10:09Otavio wouldn't have counted wouldn't have counted Emerson where I was offside
10:20that as an assist from your centre-back be a right-back goal it would have been
10:35it's a normal time
10:39there's Pereira into the danger zone he goes down big call from Cruzeiro for a
10:46penalty Falcón says no
10:55it's a brilliant turn from Mateus Pereira and there's certainly a foot in there
11:03there's no doubt about it
11:09whether or not Lucas Pacta is trying to pull out or not is the question
11:15I think he does you know I think he tries to
11:20get out
11:32it's a great delivery and it's a free header and if Cruzeiro wanted it to
11:38fall to anyone it was there's centre-forward Kyle George it just couldn't direct it
11:52Everson Royale
11:54Emerson Royale
11:54oh here it is Calascale
11:57Otavio denies him
12:05What an opportunity that, Trau Kostas ball in, and Rossi wasn't too sure about it.
12:21Pareda got the slightest of touches on it as we get this replay here of a poor clearance
12:28in defence, which fell so nice.
12:32There's not even time for them to launch that attack, and that final kick of the ball from
12:38Matias Pareda tells much of the story from Cruzeiro's point of view.
12:45The hero of the match award is for Lucas Paquetá.
12:51Much for his dancing, as for his goal that levelled this tie at the midway point.
13:00It's Cruzeiro 1, Flamengo 1.
13:08It's Cruzeiro 2.
