When the commitment ended, the UC was being left out of all continental competition, due to the result of the other Group E duel, between América de Cali and Gremio, with a partial victory for the Colombians. However, uThe gauchos’ penalty in discounts allowed the well-deserved celebration for the Crusaders.
With the results, UC was third in the “Group of Death”, with 7 points, one more than the bottom, América de Cali. The Porto Alegre teams, Gremio and Inter, were left with 11 and 8 units, with passage to the second round of the Libertadores.
The UC pushed with heart and had its miracle to stay with the victory
The Crusaders needed the miracle and went out on the field with everything to beat Inter. And the leader of Brazilian soccer did not make it easy and with hierarchy dominated the commitment for several lapses.
The balance was broken with a naive mistake by César Pinares, who committed a criminal foul by raising his arms in a cross. Andrés D’Alessandro executed from 12 steps (24 ‘).
However, the cross-reaction was immediate, thanks to Fernando Zampedri, the best on the pitch, who was on fire and took a shot that went off track and fortunately, in the form of a balloon, entered the goal (26 ‘).
