After slipping and being booed during Palmeiras’ defeat to Flamengo at Maracanã on Sunday (19), the midfielder committed a penalty in the negative result against LDU (ECU) in Quito, in a match that ended 3-0. On social media, Flamengo fans didn’t forgive him.

WHAT WERE THE FLAMENGO FANS’ REACTIONS TO ANDREAS?

“Andreas Pereira can’t see a Libertadores match without wanting to give it away”

“Andreas is so afraid of facing Flamengo in the Libertadores final that he’s even giving away penalties to get eliminated early”

HOW WAS THE MATCH?

LDU, led by Brazilian coach Tiago Nunes, started the match in overwhelming fashion. Before ten minutes had passed, for example, the Ecuadorian team had already threatened with four dangerous shots. The goal was coming and arrived in the 16th minute of the first half.

After winning on speed down the left side, Leonel Quinones reached the byline and sent a low cross into the box. There, Gabriel Villamil kept his cool and slotted it home, opening the scoring at Estadio Casa Blanca, in Quito.

HOW DID ANDREAS STAND OUT?

Later, LDU attacked again and finished dangerously. However, the shot was blocked by Andreas Pereira’s left arm: penalty. In the 26th minute, Lisandro Alzugaray took the penalty with great skill to extend the lead. Before halftime, in stoppage time, Villamil would score the third, after all.

WHAT ARE THE LIBERTADORES SEMIFINALS LIKE?

With this Thursday’s (23) victory, LDU can even lose by two goals next week, on the 30th, on the synthetic turf at Allianz Parque. On the other hand, Palmeiras needs to score four to advance without needing penalties.

On the other side of the bracket, Flamengo and Racing will face each other at the Cilindro de Avellaneda next Wednesday (29). In short, Mengão is ahead thanks to the 1-0 scoreline achieved at Maracanã. In other words, the Rubro-Negro only needs a draw to qualify for the Libertadores final.
