Esteban Pavez scored 2-0 with a violent shot after Colo Colo's incredible collective play against Alianza Lima for Copa Libertadores

Alianza Lima loses 2-0 to Colo Colo for the 2022 Copa Libertadores. The 'intimates' have not been able to adapt to the dynamics of the 'Cacique' at the Monumental in Chile and this was reflected in the second goal of the engagement, which came through a great shot by Esteban Pavez.

It happened 56 minutes after the meeting. Gabriel Suazo overcame Oslimg Mora with a big twist and unloaded for Gabriel Costa, who returned it to the side. The Chilean threw an autopass and left Christian Ramos behind, then took out centered backwards.

All the 'blue and white' defense saw the ball pass and the edge of the penalty area appeared Esteban Pavez to finish with a right. His shot was very powerful that Angelo Campos couldn't do anything to avoid 2-0.

NEXT CLOSING

Alianza Lima will have its second start on the next day. It will face Fortaleza next Wednesday, April 27 at 19:00 (Peruvian time) at the Castelao stadium. But, before that match, he will play the first classic of 2022 with Universitario de Deportes this weekend and then clash with Academia Cantolao.

For his part, Colo Colo will host River Plate. The engagement is scheduled for Wednesday, April 27 at 19:00 (Peruvian time) at the Monumental Stadium in Chile. However, prior to that, he will have two matches. First against Cobresal at home and then with Universidad Católica.

PREVIEW OF THE MATCH

Alianza Lima will visit Colo Colo for the second date of the Copa Libertadores group stage. The two teams had a different start in the international competition, as the Peruvians fell 1-0 to River Plate at home, while the Chileans beat Fortaleza 2-1 in Brazil. For this reason, the 'whites' need to add up so as not to be resigned in the last position.

Carlos Bustos and Gustavo Quinteros will have a leave because of the commitment of the first date. Aldair Rodriguez was expelled against the 'Millionaires' by a kick to Robert Rojas, who ended up with a serious injury. In addition, defender Emiliano Amor saw the double yellow card during his visit to Brazilian lands.

How did both clubs fare in their respective leagues? The 'intimates' beat Universidad Técnica de Cajamarca 1-0 with both Hernán Barcos, while the 'Popular' fell 2-1 on his visit to Unión Española.

They have never met in an official match, they only did so in friendlies. The last time they crossed paths was in 2018 and Alianza Lima fell 3-1 to Colo Colo. The goals were scored by Jorge Valdivia, Carlos Villanueva and Octavio Rivero. Alejandro Hohberg scored the discount.
