The squad in which the Tricolor goalkeeper acts causes a sensation in the Uruguayan Clausura Tournament.
Although Fénix put an end to the unbeaten position of the Ecuadorian goalkeeper Alexander Domínguez – who had five consecutive games without conceding goals – his team, Cerro Largo thrashed the albivioletas as a visitor (1-4) and provisionally climbed to the first position of the Clausura tournament of Uruguayan soccer in the absence of the classic between Peñarol and Nacional, the stellar duel of the ninth date, which is played from 2:00 p.m. (Ecuadorian time) this Sunday.
Cerro Largo reached 19 points and displaced Peñarol from the lead for the best difference goal (plus 12 against plus 11 for the coal squad).
The team in which the Tricolor goalkeeper plays this Sunday offered dynamic football, and despite the turbulence of the back start due to Nicolás Ramos’s goal, he took the initiative and violated his rival.
Domínguez was also successful in the match because he saved Rodrigo Amaral from a penalty.
The annotations at the Parque Capurro stadium came through Ramos at 9 minutes for Fénix, Leandro Onetto tied at 16, Leandro Otormín scored a penalty at 25 and repeated at 45 and 83 to finish off the local team with his hat-trick with score 4-1.
The reaction of the Ecuadorian goalkeeper in the penalty that saved Amaral -due to Fabián Estoyanoff’s foul- avoided what would have been 2-3. Fénix was deluded with shortening and there was no case. Cerro Largo continued with its intensity and Otormín completed the unforgettable Sunday to dream big.
Cerro Largo, with the presence of the World Cup goal in Brazil-2014, has won five games and equaled four, without defeats in this Clausura Tournament, which have allowed him to accumulate 19 points, with which he is ranked first in the table, beating Peñarol by a goal difference, who will be able to regain the top of the championship if they draw or defeat Nacional.
The ninth day of Uruguayan football will be completed with the result of the classic Peñarol vs. National at approximately 4:00 p.m. (D)
