The battle between Palmeiras and Cerro Porteño ended in a dramatic draw, 1-1, in the first leg of the Round of 16 of the Copa Libertadores this Wednesday (12th). Flaco López scored the first goal late in the game for Verdão, despite Andreas Pereira's red card which left Palmeiras with just 10 players for just over 20 minutes. But the Paraguayans did not give up—they tied it in stoppage time after an own goal by Carlos Miguel of Palmeiras. From the start, Palmeiras showed control in possession and were also more active on offense. However, Cerro Porteño immediately tried after a mistake by Murilo that opened up an opportunity for Morel to go one-on-one against Carlos Miguel. The Paraguay camp appealed for a penalty after Morel stepped on the keeper's foot, but no penalty was awarded by the referee. Despite failing to get into shape in defence, Palmeiras continued to create chances. It was difficult to score but Vitor Roque almost scored on the rebound from a corner, but the keeper Roffo of Cerro Porteño saved it. In the second half of the match, Jhon Arias became a threat first with a long shot that hit the post and then with a good chance from Allan's cross but it was deflected.

There was also a moment when Cerro Porteño thought they had recovered when Benítez scored, but VAR ruled it out for offside. Then the tension kicked in when Andreas Pereira was shown a straight red card, suddenly Palmeiras were down to 10 in the remaining time of the match. But this was not an obstacle. A good header by Marlon Freitas served as an assist to Flaco López who finished loosely for the opening goal for Verdão. Many thought that Palmeiras would win the advantage for the second leg, but Cerro Porteño did not give up. In the last minutes of stoppage time, Torres sent in a sharp cross from the right flank, Vegetti tried to tap it, but the ball passed and Carlos Miguel hit it into their own net resulting in an own goal. At the end of the game, everything was still open for the second leg of the knockout stage. It was a testament to both teams' resilience and refusal to give up, as each needed to perform in the second leg to advance to the quarterfinals of the Copa Libertadores.

What's next

In the next leg of the Round of 16, it is expected that Palmeiras will continue their efforts to get the win to ensure their progress to the next stage of the Copa Libertadores. Their ability to recover from mistakes and their performance on offense will be key to their success. This match will highlight the need for Palmeiras to be more solid in defense to avoid these types of mistakes in the future.
