🎥 Big moments in the Copa Libertadores: Tuesday’s best bits

We’re getting closer and closer to finding out how the Copa Libertadores group stage will end, and this Tuesday’s matchday gave us some unforgettable moments. Here’s the best of today:

Skill showdown in Boca vs. Cruzeiro

Although the match ended with protests against the referee, the Group D clash gave us some memorable moments, with players showing off their skills on the ball… in different ways. 

First, Paredes dazzled with a cross that ended up in the back of the net to make it 1-0 for El Xeneize. And although Merentiel got a touch to push it in (unnecessarily), that doesn’t take away its “stunner” status.

Then, Cruzeiro goalkeeper Otavio showed off his reflexes between the posts and gave us some spectacular saves throughout the 90 minutes. 

Fernández’s rabona

Julián Fernández produced a rabona pass for Pizarro to score Rosario Central’s second goal of the night. An assist that Libertadores itself described as “magical.”

The teams that qualified!

In this crucial week, Rosario Central, Independiente del Valle, Mirassol, and Rosario Central secured their place in the competition’s round of 16.
