[Copa Libertadores] Draw between Real Potosí y Cruzeiro

Good draw at home got the Cruzeiro Real Potosi. It matters little that the Potosi this far from a power on the continent, nor the fact that Cruzeiro came within three minutes of the win: when playing at 4,200 feet, the minimum goal is to lose narrowly. Ask if Cruzeiro himself, as he was the last time he played in the height ...

As I said, Cruzeiro came close to winning it, and took the lead very early in game (7 ') due to a bombing of Wellington Paulista. It seemed the game was going to pass quietly, within the dynamic of a game height. However, the head of trash (because another nickname will not be) of Gilbert saw red after 20 ', by hitting a punch to Loayza. Despite the man less, Cruzeiro endured the game well, demonstrating the usefulness of the preparation work they did in Sucre the week before the game.

Early in the second half, Adilson Batista wanted him down the blind to party, taking the author's goal to put the central Jonhatan; at that time, Potosi had three strikers on the court and began to trouble the goalkeeper Fábio. It almost comes out moved to the Brazilian coach, but for the emergence of Argentine Roberto Correa, one of which had entered the home side to put the 1 to 1 for only three minutes from the end of the game.

On February 3, will play the return match in Belo Horizonte. As seen in this match, Cruzeiro is now expected to have no difficulty in overcoming the Bolivian box and keep the place in Group 7, which up until Velez Sarsfield, Colo Colo and Deportivo Italia.
