Despite Playing in a Lake, Cuenca Win
Deportivo Cuenca received Caracas at home and were playing in a pitch full of puddles, when I was looking at the game I was surprised that the ref didn’t stop the game. Both teams couldn’t even pass the ball on the ground because it slowed down because of the puddles so everybody was doing long passes to each other but I digress. Deportivo Cuenca were down early by a header by Cichero who scored from a free-kick assisted by José Manuel Rey (in case you are wondering, yes its the same player who scored that goal against Ecuador from close to half field in the first match of the World Cup Qualifiers in Quito). After that Cuenca were attacking the whole game and got a questionable penalty which Teixeira netted in after that Villabla scored to give Cuenca the score of 2-1. The man of the match for me (and apparently Fox Sports) was Matamoros. He created many opportunities and had great ball control. Without a doubt the best player of the Venezuelean side was Renny Vega who saved their team from losing at least of a difference of five goals. Everything will be defined in Venezuela and Caracas already bagged the every so important away goal.
