It seemed that the procedure was going to be simple. It seemed that Deportivo Garcilaso’s limitations were going to be too much of an advantage. It seemed that victory was just around the corner after the quick expulsion of Luis Urruti at 12′ from PT and the subsequent header from Felipe Peña Biafore. However, Lanús had to suffer more than necessary to win the first victory in the Copa Sudamericana and make good the point he rescued in the debut against Cuiabá in Brazil.
There were no equivalences in the South from a football perspective. Grana was superior from start to finish, had control of the ball and cornered its rival at all times. The team knew how to move the ball quickly to prevent the line of five defenders that the Peruvian team proposed from hindering the game, they had depth and even managed to take the lead shortly after the visitor was reduced to ten.
Everything got complicated at the end of the first half, when the local team fell asleep on a stopped ball and Pablo Erustes scored the temporary equality to leave all the fans in La Fortaleza stunned. Despite the blow, Lanús had the ability not to despair and continue proposing high pressure. It is true that it was difficult for him, but he found himself with the 2-1 after searching for it so much: Walter Bou took a left-footed shot and broke with a limited team with little ambition.
The great difficulty that Grana showed was the failures in the final stitch and in making a larger differencesomething that could be key in defining Group G. Now? Let’s think about Estudiantes and ensuring qualification for the League Cup playoffs.
Bou, the hero
He arrived at the beginning of 2024 and quickly adapted to the professional squad and the club. He arrived recently and began to pay with goals. Walter Bou continues to increase his influence in Lanús and yesterday he scored the key goal to achieve the first victory in the Copa Sudamericana and settle into Group G
With the goal for 2-1 against Garcilaso, the forward reached seven goals in the season, the other six (he scored against San Lorenzo, Belgrano, Boca, Defensa and Tigre) for the Professional League Cup. The most transcendental thing? They all helped the team win.
Triumph of Cuiabá
On their visit to Venezuela, the Brazilian team beat Metropolitanos 2-0 with a double from Deyverson, the second from a penalty. With this result, Cuiabá was the leader of Group G for having a better goal difference than Lanús. Now he will go to Peru to face Garcilaso.
