This week is not the best for Andreas Pereira. After slipping and being booed in 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 did not forgive him.
“Andreas Pereira can’t see a Libertadores without wanting to throw it away”
“Andreas is so afraid of facing Flamengo in the Libertadores final that he’s even giving away penalties just to get eliminated quickly”
“*end of the second match*

“Andreas, it’s all right”
LDU, led by Brazilian coach Tiago Nunes, started the game in overwhelming fashion. Before the ten-minute mark, for example, the Ecuadorian team had already created four dangerous chances. The goal was coming and arrived at the 16th minute of the first half.
After winning with speed down the left side, Leonel Quinones reached the end line and crossed low into the box. There, Gabriel Villamil kept his cool and put the ball in the net, opening the score at Estadio Casa Blanca, in Quito.
Later, LDU attacked again and finished dangerously. However, the shot was blocked by Andreas Pereira’s left arm: penalty. In the kick, taken at the 26th minute, Lisandro Alzugaray converted with great style to extend the lead. Before halftime, in stoppage time, Villamil would score the third, after all.
With this Thursday’s (23) victory, LDU can even lose by two goals next week, on the 30th, on the synthetic pitch 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 face off at the Cilindro de Avellaneda next Wednesday (29). In short, Mengão is ahead thanks to the 1-0 score obtained at Maracanã. In other words, the Rubro-Negro only needs a draw to qualify for the Libertadores final.
