Junior today: accounts to qualify for Libertadores and qualify for Copa Sudamericana 2020 against Flamengo | Libertadores Cup



[ad_1]

Junior from Barranquilla lost 0-2 with Barcelona from Guayaquil and could not catch up with Independiente del Valle in the group A standings, as they fell 4-0 with Flamengo and stood at 9 points; Junior was with 6 and Barcelona with 3; Flamengo, already classified, reached 12 units. The sharks will face Flamengo in Brazil on Wednesday to seek a feat or a place in Suramericana.

It will precisely be at the home of Flamengo, the Maracana stadium, where Junior will have to define his future in the continental tournament: get his place in the round of 16, advance to the South American Cup or be left empty-handed, everything can happen in the last date.

For the Libertadores:

Only one maracanazo, and a result that favors him in the duel between Ecuadorians, will be able to make the miracle effective to be in the other round of the Libertadores. Junior has to win and hopefully for a bulky result, since he has -2 in goal difference; then he has to wait for Barcelona to beat Independiente del Valle, who has +4 in his difference. It won’t be easy at all.

For South American:

At the moment Junior has the quota to that tournament, as he is third in the table. If he does not meet his goal of continuing in the Libertadores, he has a high percentage of chances of qualifying for the Suramericana. However, he could be left empty-handed if he loses and Barcelona beats Independiente del Valle, although the number of goals of both will depend. Currently the goal difference is -2 in Junior and -6 in the Guayaquil team.
