Ang Junior from Barranquilla press the table in Group H of South American Cup and beat this Wednesday 3-0 at Fluminense in a game in which he subdued his rival from start to finish to attack the leadership of the area.
Tiburón’s goals are the work of Didier Moreno; from Miguel Borja, from a punishment; and Argentine winger Fabián Sambueza, with the Colombian team leading its place with four units, the same as Unión de Santa Fe who beat Oriente Petrolero yesterday 1-3 in Bolivia, and Tricolor is third with three points.
The rojiblanco team started to attack from the very first moments and had the first approach with a long-distance shot from midfielder Daniel Giraldo in the 3rd minute.
In this context, the goal came very quickly, at 9, in a deadly counterattack started by Moreno and ended it himself with a right hand that was impossible to stop for Fábio after receiving a pass from the side of the winger who was Mar Albornoz.
Fluminense, shocked at the infernal rhythm with which their rival underwent them in the first half, had a lot of difficulty connecting Ganso and Yago with Argentine Germán Cano, which on several occasions he received made it there aren’t many advantages against the pair of central defenders Jorge Arias -Dany Rosero, on a good level.
Argentina side Juan Cruz Real continued to attack and had a few more chances to increase the advantage until they did so in the 46th minute after the referee called a foul by David Braz on Giraldo in place and Borja took advantage of the charge to celebrate at the Metropolitan Stadium.
In the second half, the Rio de Janeiro team tried to discount the first minutes through two shots by Cano but they could not pass the resistance of Uruguay goalkeeper Sebastián Viera.
Within minutes, the visitors ’speed dropped and the hosts regained control led by Moreno, Giraldo and Yesus Cabrera, who formed the dominant midfield that was key to getting three points.
However, Abel Braga’s team did not give up and, in the midst of the confusion, tried to do damage. The clearest chance to discount it was Ganso at 67 on a free kick saved, again, by Viera.
The Colombians retained control and finished scoring the final 3-0 with a right hand from Fabián Sambueza at 95, where they scored three key points against a rival who would need to improve the image shown today if they want to fight for a place in the next round of the South American Cup.
On the third day, Fluminense will host the Unión de Santa Fe on April 26, while two days later, Junior will visit the Oriente Petrolero.
