Argentina and Brazil keep as leaders in groups A and B of the II Juegos Suramericanos de Playa held this week in Ecuador
With an advantage of 4-0 in the first stages of the game, there was little Paraguay could do in front of an inspired Brazil, who sees these II Juegos Suramericanos de Playa as the perfect stage to get back to the winning path Russia has sent them out, at least for the moment. The Brazilian powder was too much for the Guaraní squad, who saw Jorginho (2), Souza, Bruno Xavier and Andre make it 5-1 at the end of the second period. Although Paraguay reacted up to the 5-3, Bruno Xavier confirmed his good vibe to end the game and add three new points to the Brazilian count.
Argentina, in turn, needed the penalty shootout to prove they deserved the head of group A, after Colombia, just as they managed on Wednesday against Ecuador, reached the final horn with 3-3 on the score. But Mederos proved better aimed than Larreondo from the 9-meters spot, and captured the two points at stake for the Albiceleste.
Uruguay could get even with their bad first step in the South American Games, beating Peru to stay alive in Manta. After Martínez and Sotillo built a solid 3-0 for the Charrúa, Peru realized they were almost out of the tournament. Holsen’s latter hit could change nothing, as there was no time enough for the Peruvians to turn things around.
Ecuador, on the other side, experienced just the opposite to the Uruguayans. After having bent Colombia in their first match, the hosts were surprised this time by Venezuela (4-3) to get group A really tight. Ferreira’s double and Rodriguez and Vaamonde’s hits were the door to the Vinotinto squad to earn their firs points in the competition.
