Palmeiras defeats Liverpool in Uruguay and is close to qualifying in the Libertadores

Avanti, Lecture. Palmeiras visited Liverpool (URU) this Thursday in the Libertadores and beat the Uruguayan team 5-0. In a game played at the Centenario Stadium, in Montevideo, Raphael Veiga put on a show, scored twice for the Alviverde team and led to the victory . In the final stretch, Endrick, Rony and Gustavo Gómez closed the score.

Thus, with the result, Palmeiras left the classification for the round of 16 well on track. To do this, in fact, Verdão will only have to score one point in the final two rounds, which will take place at Allianz Parque. Independiente del Valle (ECU), San Lorenzo (ARG) and Liverpool, however, with four points, complete the group and are also fighting for the knockout stage.

First time

The initial stage began with pressure from the home team, who found the net after two minutes with Matías Ocampo. The linesman, however, was caught offside by the beautiful pass that the number 11 received behind the marker. The alviverde’s response came with Raphael Veiga, who almost scored a great goal in the 16th minute. Right on the edge of the area, the midfielder struck first time, but the ball exploded onto Lentinelly’s crossbar. When the first half looked like it would end in a draw, Abel Ferreira’s team punished the Uruguayans. Marcos Rocha found a beautiful pass to Veiga, who invaded the area and shot with his right foot. The crossbar who got in the way before this time was a friend and helped push the ball into the goal.

Second time

The final stage was calm for Palmeiras, who scored twice more in the Uruguayan capital. And with a great performance from Endrick. At 26, after all, in a quick play through the middle, the number 9 touched the back of the marker, and Raphael Veiga arrived with the first hit. The ball deflected off the mark and took away any chance of defense from the Liverpool goalkeeper. Ten minutes later, Veiga took a corner from the left, and Rony deflected it at the first post. Endrick appeared at the second post and scored with a header. During the celebration, the future Real Madrid player celebrated in front of Liverpool’s reserve athletes, who came to celebrate. A small disturbance began, but was quickly contained. In stoppage time, Rony received it from Flaco López and scored the fourth. In the last play, from a penalty, Gustavo Gómez closed the score.

Sequence

Liverpool and Palmeiras return to the field next week, after all, again for the Libertadores. For the fifth round, Verdão hosts Independiente del Valle, on Wednesday, while the Uruguayans visit San Lorenzo, on Thursday.
