I’M JEFF AGOOS, AND GOOBNET MAKES ME WANT TO SCORE AN OWN GOAL

CONMEBOL group phase matchday 18 recap
[WED 11 OCT 2017 – 13:50:14 UTC]

The end of the CONMEBOL group phase came on TUE 10 OCT 2017, and with it the last chance for some of the world’s best known stars to punch their tickets to Russia.

  • Uruguay 04-02 Bolivia: Bolivia took the lead on an own goal, but the advantage swung back to the Celeste by the interval. After the break, two goals from Luis SUÁREZ put the result beyond doubt and secured a third consecutive Men’s World Cup appearance for Uruguay.
  • Brazil 03-00 Chile: The Copa América holders began the day in third place, but GABRIEL JESUS’s two goals paced group leaders Brazil and left la Roja out of contention.
  • Ecuador 01-03 Argentina: Despite having nothing but pride to play for, Ecuador made a blazing start to the match, going ahead from a Romario IBARRA header just 37 seconds in. The unthinkable prospect of a Men’s World Cup without Argentina, though, need not require thought this time around, thanks to a hat trick by Lionel MESSI.
  • Peru 01-01 Colombia: James RODRÍGUEZ put the Cafeteros ahead in the 56th minute, but twenty minutes later, a bizarre sequence levelled the match. Peru were awarded an indirect kick for dangerous play by Frank FABRA. Paolo GUERRERO then fired the restart directly at goal. Had it gone directly in, it would have been disallowed, but Colombia keeper David OSPINA got a touch to it. The shot still found net, the deflection making it a valid goal. Nonetheless, the draw earns qualification for Colombia and a place in the OFC/​CONMEBOL playoff for Peru.
  • Qualified: Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Uruguay
  • OFC/​CONMEBOL playoff: New Zealand v Peru
  • Eliminated: Bolivia, Chile, Ecuador, Paraguay, Venezuela
