Junior Sornozathe captain of Independiente, scored the first goal, but before the end of the first half, he left the field due to a muscle injury in his right leg.
The victory is important, but the game of Javier Gandolfi’s team has not yet consolidated. They had 14 shots at the rival goal, and were only able to score from the penalty spot – by Soronoza – and after a rebound, which was finished off by Michael Hoyos.
Kendry Páez was the star of the match. He made some great plays, which even caused a reaction from a rival player, who didn’t like the way he brought the ball down with the heel of his right leg.
In the second half, La Joya had three attempts at goal. In one of them, the ball hit the goalpost. In the other, the ball went out of the field, and in the third, goalkeeper Facundo Altamirano won the duel.
Renato Ibarra, who scored two goals in LigaPro last weekend, was not impressive this time. He only managed to get one shot off, which was blocked by the Argentine defense, and then he left the field.
Only in the second half, San Lorenzo had a direct shot at Moisés Ramírez’s goal, who easily saved a header from Herazo.
IDV currently leads Group F with 4 points. The result of the match between Palmeiras of Brazil and Liverpool of Uruguay is still pending.
On the third day, the striped team will once again be at home to receive Palmeiras on April 24. San Lorenzo will be away against Liverpool.
