damn, nice!! too bad I wasn't able to watch it. [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HwNiD7zcRgs"]YouTube - Oriente Petrolero 3 Gremio 0 Copa libertadores 2011[/ame]
We need Carlos playing on that wing. All three goals were counter attacks. Carlos distributed that ball nicely and wasted no time. Thats exactly how the nats to be playing other teams; attack when the defense is spread out, don't wait until they regroup. I wished I watched this game. I fell asleep early and just woke up. Amazing finish for Oriente!
Yea the stream cut out for me at the 60ish minute mark. Crazy that they just now are getting heated up! Arce is a beast. Too good to be still in bolivia. Wonder where he will go this summer? My guess is back to brasil after ripping gremio UP!
Arce, when in the zone is huge, he has to be back in Brazil. Longer highlights here, with Arce commentary at the end. http://www.videobolivia.com/videodeportes.php
Afte the game, Jhasmany and Ronald Rea were asking Fábio Rochemback, former Barcelona FC player to exchange jerseys.
So the great Wilstermann-Traffic experiment is over. Maybe someday some of the players will wear the red jersey when the team returns to first division. 4 points overall was certainly not the goal, but after early positive showings on the road in Mexico and Ecuador, the Inter matches were just too tough. I much would have rather had this team, than a team of junior players that some hinchas were calling for... my only hope is that none of these players suit up for other Bolivian teams making them better... Off to Nacional B
Putting my ovbious bias aside, I think Machado, the keeper was by far the best player. He will stay on the team to play the Nacional B, but I would not be surprised if he got offers from abroad. What an under rated goalie!
Yees, I still remember his saves and crazy ness when with bolivar. Good player, but very inconsistent for some reason, in bolivia.
La altura affects the ball and causes errors by goalies and makes them not as INVINCIBLE..we all know a couple haha
Now tha I recall, Machado has the dubious distinction of being the only goalie to concede a goal from another goalie in international competition. It was a goal kick and somehow it bounced over him and ended up in the net. There is got to be a youtube video of that, as he was playing for La Paz FC I think.
It was for the 2004 Copa Sudamericana when Bolivar faced Universidad de Concepcion of Chile in La Paz, Bolivar won 4-2 going on to the next round, i saw that game with my dad, hilarious. [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k1qLUV-afy0"]YouTube - UDECONCE vs Bolivar[/ame]
Turns out that three of the players brought by Traffic will stay on to play the Nacional B for Wilstermann: Mosqueda (Colombia), Garcia (Peru), and Fabio Minerio (Brasil). Machado will also stay on....
Hey Strongest fans, this may be the closest thing to your team making the final of the Copa Libertadores. If you take a quick glance at it, it almost looks as if its' your team. Hahaha I kid, I kid. I'm rooting for you guys in the copa sudamericana.
