Emelec arrived in Lima to do their business and return to Guayaquil with great options to secure their qualification to the round of 16 of the 2023 Copa Sudamericana. Sporting Cristal lost in that game and, despite having possession of the ball, it was not enough to prevent José Francisco Cevallos' goal from giving the victory to the Ecuadorians. In that context, José Pileggi, president of the 'Eléctricos', analyzed what happened at the Estadio Nacional and valued the victory achieved by his team.
In an interview with Teradeportes, the boss of Emelec admitted that there is a great spirit within the team due to the result they achieved in the Peruvian capital and hopes that they can close it in the best possible way in Ecuador. Remember that a draw, by any score, will be enough for them to advance to the next round of the 'Suda'.
