Day 5
Venezuela v Ecuador
Goals
(ECU)Preciado 39'
(VEN)Castillo 51'
(ECU)Plata 71'
(VEN)Hernandez 91'
An entertaining match which was helped with the lack of marking from Ecuador which made the goals from Venezuela too easy. This means both of these teams are at the bottom of the group with Ecuador having their next game being against Peru.
Colombia v Peru
Goals
(PER)Pena 17'
(COL)Borja(P) 53'
(PER)Mina(OG) 64'
A weird own goal from Yerry Mina meant Peru walked away from this with all 3 points. This could’ve consolidated Colombia’s position in Group B. Now Peru are just a point behind them instead. The penalty was conceded after the keeper brought down the striker. Colombia had a few chances but couldn’t take them.
