U. Catolica vs Estudiantes L.P.

Estudiantes L.P. stormed into the Copa Libertadores quarterfinals with a commanding 3-0 win away at U. Catolica, turning a tight tie into a rout at Claro Arena in Santiago. The standout moment came right before the break, when a substitute made an immediate impact to break the deadlock. Joaquin Correa, who had just come on for the injured Tiago Palacios, opened the scoring in the 43rd minute. Guido Carrillo then took over in the second half, heading home in the 52nd minute before adding a second, assisted by Edwuin Cetre, in the 82nd. Yellow cards went to Jhojan Valencia, Tomas Palacios and Lucas Piovi, but no red cards marred a one-sided affair dominated from start to finish by the Argentine side. The result completes a 4-1 aggregate triumph for Estudiantes L.P. after the first leg in La Plata ended 1-1, sending them through to face either Corinthians or Rosario Central. For U. Catolica, it's a harsh end to their Libertadores campaign, unable to build on that away draw once back on home turf.
