Football is an inexplicable sport, where logic is not always fulfilled and details can define titles, which means glory for some and sadness for others. This happened last Saturday in the final of the 2023 Copa Sudamericana , where Liga de Quito defeated Fortaleza in an anguishing penalty shootout (4-3) and won their second star in that competition. It turns out that Paolo Guerrero was in charge of taking the first shot for the Quito team, with an unusual outcome for him: his shot was not powerful enough and João Ricardo guessed it.
Although Alexander Domínguez ended up being the hero by saving three penalties and giving the title to LDU, the 'Predator' was left frustrated because his error could have changed the outcome of the match. So, after the celebrations on the field, he talked to the media and revealed what happened before his penalty, where he felt cold due to the delay caused by the referee Jesus Valenzuela.
