00:00 For both Corinthians and their hosts here in Paraguay Nacional.
00:04 The Paraguayan outfit desperate for a victory just to keep their noses in the fight.
00:10 For qualifying in one of the top two spots in the group stage of the Combat Balls Sin Americano.

00:30 A lovely tribute to Cesar Luis Menotti before kickoff.
00:33 The former Argentinian national team gives Corinthians this corner.
00:37 Fagner to take.
00:43 Trapped it right into the danger zone and they want another set piece as well.
00:49 Space on this near side if they want to use it.
00:51 It was a good call by Rivas and he's been found too.
00:53 Where can he go from this position?
00:56 It's a great ball in and they're outnumbered for a second there defensively, Corinthians.
01:00 Back again to the man who took the set piece.
01:05 Ferrer once more, it's a better ball in and a cracking nod down too.
01:08 Looking in at this near post.
01:15 It's down and it's almost straight down into the feet of Angel Romero.
01:19 Might be a chance for a counter attack here.
01:21 Caballero, options left and right.
01:23 Caceres supporting Aziz Duarte here.
01:25 And he hits the post.
01:27 They're going to keep it alive.
01:30 Caceres on the turn and straight into the hands of Carlos Miguel.
01:33 The wrong way to go and if Caballero just waited another moment and seen Caceres arriving on his left.
01:38 Need some movement, need some runners off the ball here for Corinthians.
01:42 The front line is looking rather static and everybody waiting for somebody else to make the decisive move.
01:47 That's coming from Wesley right now.
01:49 Got away from two but couldn't escape the third.
01:52 Very good position this.
01:55 One, two and you should probably expect this so far really with the goal scoring struggles that Corinthians have had.
02:04 Failing to score in five of their last seven.
02:06 They were 0-0 against Fortaleza on the weekend.
02:09 Resilient Serie A in its infancy of the season as Duarte gets across and gets a head on it.
02:15 But it's not a clean connection.
02:16 Information of that for you.
02:17 Just wonder how long Yuri Alberto is going to sit on the bench for Corinthians tonight.
02:21 So we get back underway here in Asuncion.
02:25 Nassir now playing from left to right.
02:28 There, all white strip with the red and dash of blue trim.
02:32 Tricolore, Asuncion.
02:37 A good save again by Carlos Miguel.
02:40 Tips over Duarte's effort.
02:42 They're starting to hum a little here.
02:43 Nassir now.
02:44 Caceres to take.
02:46 Busy on the top of the six yard box again.
02:48 It's being away by the first man.
02:50 Ball by Caballero as well.
02:52 Could have taken a touch.
02:53 Over the top by Rivas.
02:55 Finally looking to get onto it.
02:57 Straight to the keeper.
02:58 Duarte with the final touch and again.
03:01 It's that shooting form.
03:06 It's a great delivery.
03:12 Romero had a real sniff at it and then some.
03:15 What a good chance that was for Romero.
03:23 Leap to get onto that was a good save.
03:29 Leap to get onto that was a faint touch.
03:31 However, the referee having none of it.
03:33 Wesley.
03:34 More to aim at now in the box for Corinthians.
03:37 Back by the substitute.
03:39 Can't force it across goal but wins a corner.
03:41 Made up by Yuri Alberto.
03:48 Neat work again.
03:49 Just needs to come across goal.
03:50 Good save by Silva initially.
03:51 There's no one there to try and stick it home.
03:54 Down the right suddenly.
04:06 Yuri Alberto.
04:08 That's the quality.
04:09 And that's the man that you need in these moments.
04:13 Hung in the air forever.
04:20 As the 23 year old just nods it home.
04:24 For his third goal of the competition this season.
04:26 And finally Corinthians get their chance and get their goal.
04:30 It's just put perfectly on his head.
04:37 Just has to guide it into the corner.
04:39 No chance for Anthony Silva.
04:41 Who's just a bystander to the whole situation.
04:43 Short to Rivas.
04:44 Finds himself some space in the crossing opportunity.
04:46 And it's a header that's beaten away from point blank range.
04:48 As Juan Fernando Alfaro is denied by Carlos Miguel.
04:50 Another delivery that hangs in the air for days.
04:52 This drops right down.
04:53 It's a great save by Rivas.
