Goal by Derlis González in Olimpia vs Atlético Goianiense LIVE: the forward scored the 1-0 for 'Decano' in the round of 16 match of the Copa Sudamericana.

Derlis González completed a collective action by the team of coach Julio César Cáceres to score the 1-0 for Olimpia vs. Atlético Goianiense for the round of 16 of the Copa Sudamericana. The Paraguayan team, which plays as the home team at the Defensores del Chaco stadium, entered the rival's area passing the ball and then the experienced attacker opened the scoring.

Hugo Quintana deserves credit for receiving the ball in the midfield of the Brazilians. The 'Decano' player advanced into the opponent's territory and along the way, to overcome the opponent's lines, created a couple of wall passes. When he was near the penalty area, he passed the ball to the author of the first goal of the match.

Then, Olimpia's number 10 played through the center for Fernando Cardozo's shot. The ball went towards the near post, but goalkeeper Ronaldo blocked it. However, the ball remained loose inside the area for Derlis González to take a powerful shot into the top of the goal to make it 1-0 in the match.
