Libertadores: Fortaleza only draws and misses chance to advance to the round of 16


Breno Lopes misses a clear chance with his foot... The home team wasted a golden opportunity with Breno Lopes. The striker took advantage of a mistake by the Bucaramanga defender, found himself face to face with the goalkeeper when shooting down the right wing and, when it was time to open the scoring, he mis-aimed and sent the ball wide. The play was the last major danger until half-time.
... and hits the post with a header. The second half started slightly more balanced, and the Colombians started to attack with Londoño and Pons. The best chance until the 15th minute, however, came again with Breno Lopes — this time with a cross from the right: Marinho cleared the defense and found his teammate, who hit the post with a header in the small area.

Vojvoda makes a double change. Given the lack of intensity (and effectiveness) of the Brazilians, the Fortaleza coach refreshed the team with two changes at once: discreet, Deyverson and Lucas Sasha gave way to Lucero and Pochettino, respectively. Meanwhile, Leonel Álvarez called on center forward Peñaranda in place of winger Castañeda.
Pressure at Castelão . The changes took effect quickly, and the inspired Lucero and Pochettino began to make life hell for the defenders. The forward won a series of challenges with the defenders and, despite missing an unbelievable goal, managed to continue the play, while the midfielder forced Quintana to work with a shot from inside the area. Faced with the blitz, Kervin Andrade and Pikachu also entered the field, but were unable to find the net.
