Medellín won 3-1 at Sol de América, but was eliminated from the Copa
Sol de América held on Thursday the attacks of Independiente Medellin and, despite losing 3-1, qualified for the second phase of the Copa Sudamericana. With goals from Hernan Pertuz, Juan Fernando Caicedo and Argentina's Germán Cano, the Colombians, led by Spanish Ismael Rescalvo, tried to overcome the 2-0 first leg against the Guarani, who went ahead with a goal by César Villaba.
It was the visitors who found the first goal of the match at minute 14, in a free-kick play in which Zeballos, scorer of the two goals of the first leg, sent a center that grazed Villagra with the head to overcome the resistance of the goalkeeper David González

The game was played on a court that despite having some small puddles was very smooth because of the rain that fell today in Medellin, a situation that the hosts tried to take advantage of in the initial minutes with mid-range shots that made goalkeeper Ortiz look great.
The locals were forced to look for four goals to avoid being eliminated and tied the game seven minutes later with a header by Pertuz. Sun of America fell back and did everything possible to maintain the difference, helped by Ortiz and the bad marksmanship of the Reds.
The first half, also scored by the strong game, ended with a draw on the board and two injured players, the local Yairo Moreno and the visitor Tomás Rojas. In the second half, which was accompanied by a heavy downpour at the Atanasio Girardot stadium, Medellín sought to increase through the passing game, which required Ortiz.
The local increased with a very strong shot by Cano in a penalty committed to Castro in the 68th minute. Sol de América tried to react but could not reach the goal of Gonzalez clearly, who appeared little, and in this situation, the Colombians followed. pushing and scored the 3-1 with Caicedo, who beat the goalkeeper with a shot in the area after receiving a pass from Castro from the right side.
