La Academia suffered until the very end in its visit to Independiente Petrolero in its Copa Sudamericana debut, but managed to extend its lead thanks to the playmaker after surviving a near equalizer.

From the tension of the almost 2-2 came joy for La Academia, as in the very next play Toto Fernández stepped up and made the most of Matias Zaracho’s run down the flank to beat goalkeeper Jhohan Gutiérrez, then sent a cutback that the former San Telmo man managed to connect with to make it 3-1, first on the night and eventually the final score. A hugely important win considering the significance of goal difference.
