Liga de Quito was obliged to add three points against Emelec, but could not. Thus he distanced his chances of winning the first stage of the LigaPro. The match ended 2-2.
The tie does not benefit Emelec either, which no longer has a chance to win the stage with three dates left to finish the first part of the tournament.
“La U” of Quito started winning with a goal from Lisandro Alzugaray in the 11th minute. Then Emelec tied with a goal from Facundo Castelli in the 65th minute.
The League took the lead again in the 83rd minute with a goal from Michael Estrada. And the blues quickly tied with a goal from Rodrigo Riveros, at 86′.
Three dates before finishing the first stage, the teams are accelerating fully in search of that place in the final and the Copa Libertadores in 2025. The tie left both “badly injured.”
The first stage was one of total dominance by the League, which dominated and arrived forcefully although it was not as effective.
In the 45th minute the referee whistled a penalty in favor of the League, but the play was reviewed in the VAR where it was finally decided that it was not an intentional handball by Emelec.
At the beginning of the second stage Emelec made two changes. Jaime Ayoví entered for Cristhian Valencia, and Roberto Garcés for Marcelo Meli.
This improved their performance, but in a few minutes the League regained control. And just like in the first stage, he failed to define.
Emelec and Liga de Quito need to win
Emelec has failed in recent times, with two wins, three draws and one defeat. He already left that on the verge of running out of options to win the stage.
Liga has 25 points in the table and Emelec 21. Both now hope that Aucas does not add three on this date against Barcelona.
