00:00
And this first leg of the second qualification phase in the Libertadores, we have Deportes
00:13
Tolima, it's Football Club Melgar, and we are underway then in Ibague at the Estadio
00:24
Toro here in Colombia, it's Deportes Tolima against Football Club Melgar, Colombia against
00:33
Peru, I'm Joel Richards your commentator this evening in this first leg.
00:38
Well, Castro, Hernandez continues this run, it's good play from Tolima, a real opportunity
01:00
there for Lencina, and Perez blasts it over, better from Rescaldo's side, good movement,
01:12
Lencina is desperately close to getting, of this year's competition, that's Melgar looking
01:22
to make sure they're in that group phase too, here is Martinez's delivery, cleared by Angulo,
01:31
that's a wonderful save by Fiamarine, the danger's not over, it's blasted across the
01:36
face of goal by Barrios, but out of absolutely nowhere Christopher Fiamarine produces a brilliant
01:48
save to keep this game goalless, Martinez, you've got the ricochet, great technique with
01:58
the outside of the boot, puts it in nicely for looking for the run of Castro, but once
02:06
again Christopher Fiamarine, with a safe pair of hands in goal for Tolima, it's the right
02:24
decision, Lencina came from offside surely, that is an absolute wonder goal that will
02:31
not count, how about the finish though from Lencina, it's absolutely spectacular, Orsan
02:49
keeps his move, now down the right hand side, Biar Barrios, another decent save by Fiamarine,
02:57
there wasn't any power on that header, the goalkeeper of Tolima is forced into action,
03:03
Rovira, looking for his captain who gets the header to it, but Quiñones is unable to get
03:17
any power on Casada, a clean take, leaning over Barrios, there's a bit of space for Kenji
03:36
Cabrera, bit of fortune to get the ball but it's still with Cabrera, still Cabrera, that's a
03:41
brilliant goal by Kenji Cabrera and it gives Melgar the lead here in Colombia.
03:52
Ribonetto's side break the deadlock, is why they talk about this young man.
04:03
The ball's played here, Cabrera unable to reach it, but it's this space that he's able to attack,
04:10
takes on Quiñones and doesn't think twice about going for goal, drills it into the near post,
04:18
excellent from the 22 year old.
04:26
Quiñones very much on Tolima, Rovira, Trujillo,
04:32
finds Miranda, he's got Ariete on the outside, lovely ball in by Miranda, the play is still on,
04:38
it's Castro, oh it's a free header there, Trujillo really was at the hub of this attack,
04:48
it's this ball in from Miranda,
04:53
Castro keeps it alive, Trujillo's unmarked and there's good movement, he's just unable to get
04:57
a proper head.
05:04
We're back underway in Colombia, Deportes, Tolima against Melgar, 1-0 to the Peruvians,
05:10
the away side, I'm Joel Richards, your commentator this evening in this first leg,
05:15
the second round of qualification in the Comibol Libertadores.
05:21
Confirmation of the substitutions just at the top of your screens,
05:24
Hortado Ramirez coming on, and here's an early start for Trujillo, oh they've come off the woodwork,
05:35
the attack's still on, Rovira looks for Hortado,
05:41
an attack is still on, Pérez on the edge of the box,
05:44
swung in, they want a handball, Abel not giving anything there, driven back in.
05:59
Castro, got Lencina, I wonder if he didn't release a bit earlier, Lencina, there's the equaliser,
06:07
it didn't matter that Castro hadn't released him early on,
06:10
that's what they wanted and that's the celebration.
06:14
And there is the celebration from Lencina which the supporters of Tolima are getting
06:24
used to seeing, it's his third goal this season,
06:30
and we've mentioned the high press from Tolima, we've seen that throughout this match,
06:34
it hadn't always come off for them, there is Leonel Gonzalez who loses the ball for Melgar,
06:41
it's just here where he takes that extra touch, good work by Castro, tenacious stuff,
06:46
and then the finish from Gonzalo Lencina that puts Tolima back on level terms.
07:01
They wanted to see...
07:02
Back into the fray in the second half, here's Pérez, this is a lovely play from Tolima,
07:12
still Pérez, looks to go for goal himself.
07:21
Still seeing though that movement from Rescalvo's side, interesting passages of play,
07:29
they bring it out of the fence, including the full-back,
07:35
we've then got options up the flank or indeed in the middle with Pérez, the outlet.
07:42
And Rovira looking to launch Juanto Pérez.
08:02
Goes to Lencina, it's an excellent save from CĂĄseda.
08:04
The attack is still on for Tolima, well executed pass.
08:22
Pérez looks to go for goal, it's Lencina.
08:26
Pierre Barrios is down after getting the full force of that shot from Gustavo RamĂrez.
08:35
That is the end of proceedings here, it's been an engaging second half,
08:47
Rescalvo can't quite believe that his side haven't managed to get an equaliser,
08:52
as will the players and the supporters of Deportes Tolima.
08:56
They've lost this first leg in Colombia, 1-0 to Melgar.
09:02
But you feel there's a lot more to come from this tie.
09:07
Tolima on balance, you feel the more proficient side.
