[THU 13 SEP 2012 – 04:44:34 UTC]
A quick summary of action around CONMEBOL on TUE 11 SEP 2012.
- Chile 01-03 Colombia: It was another stellar performance from the Cafetero Radamel FALCAO, who had one goal and an assist to help propel Colombia into second place. Chile’s Gary MEDEL was sent off in the 34th minute, as was Colombia’s Abel AGUILAR in the 84th.
- Uruguay 01-01 Ecuador: The visitors went in front just seven minutes in, as Felipe CAICEDO scored from the penalty spot. But controversy arose in the second half following a collision between Cristian BENITEZ and Uruguay keeper Fernando MUSLERA. Referee Carlos AMARILLA did not award a second penalty, instead cautioning Benitez for a dive. Shortly thereafter, Edison CAVANI equalised, and the Charrúas escaped with a point.
- Paraguay 00-02 Venezuela: Paraguay’s freefall continued as a brace from Salomon RONDON led the Vinotinto to a shock win in Asunción.
- Peru 01-01 Argentina: Carlos ZAMBRANO put Peru ahead, after Argentina keeper Sergio ROMERO saved a third minute penalty by Claudio PIZARRO. But Gonzalo HIGUAÍN equalised in the 36th minute, keeping the Albiceleste in first.
