Game of the Week: Los Chullas Show Heart

August 2nd, 2010 | by: Carlos |

This week’s game of the week was between Espoli and reigning champions Deportivo Quito. Just this past week Deportivo Quito have signed “the Peruvian Zlatan Ibrahimovic” Jose Fernandez and ex-Everton & Wolves player Segundo Castillo but however none got in the score-sheet this match. Marvin Cortez headed in the opener in just under the 2′ minute following a bad clear by the Deportivo Quito’s goalkeeper Ibarra. At the 19th minute ex-America player Luis Saritama scored a very impressive goal by controlling it with his chest then curling it in to tie the game. Luis Checa scored at the 58′ minute following a free-kick to make it 2-1. Carlos Garcia scored what would be a definitive goal of this match at the 67′ minute following a horrible missed tackle of Espoli’s goalkeeper Adrian Bone. Right when the match was about to end La Tri’s current captain (not for long hopefully) Ivan Hurtado glazed the ball with his hands and a penalty was called. Thus De Jesus scored the penalty to end the game 3-2.
