Racing with Corinthians goes for the cup dream. After crossing that barrier of reaching an international semi-final after 27 years, he now intends to step up and be in the final. Match that will be played in a neutral stadium, in Asunción. But to get there he has to leave out nothing more and nothing less a powerful man from Brazil. A team that, although it is not doing well at all domestically and even has serious problems with maintaining its category, but that is making strong progress both in the Brazilian Cup and internationally.
That’s why, for that key match for the semifinal of the Copa SudamericanaGustavo Costas‘ team wants to use a lethal weapon. Possibly what led it to this point, beyond not having a good functioning or a clear idea of the game. Something that characterized him for much of the year: goals. The Academy is the highest scoring team in this competitiontaking as reference the four clubs that are still alive. The one who put it into the goal the most times, the one who hurt a rival the most and who also has the scorer of this tournament: Maravilla Martínez.
Racing wants to score goals against Corinthians. Go overboard in that sense, although everyone knows that going from half to zero is enough. The truth is that Conmebol He put together the table of the goals of the four teams that still participate in the competition and it is Gustavo Costas’ team that looks down on everyone from above. And they have an important advantage over the second, precisely the Paulistas who will be rivals in the semi and not to mention the other two teams (Lanús and Cruzeiro) that are in the other key and, if they advance, they will face one of them in the final
Racing is coming with Corinthians and the goals are the protagonists
A semifinal of the Copa Sudamericana that can be very exciting. Mainly for neutrals who do not suffer from these types of instances. Although Cruzeiro and Lanús will face each other in one of the keys, the attraction may be in the other since the two teams that have the most goals in this competition will face each other. At least those who are still in the race.
Racing is the leader in the table with 26 goals and behind is Cornithians with 22. Between the two teams they have 48 goals in the competition, a very good amount. Costas’ men have scored goals in both the round of 16 and the quarterfinals, in both cases in what was the second leg that was played in the Cilindro. On the other hand, they are much more cautious in that regard. Because third place goes to Lanús, which has 18 points and in last place is Cruzeiro. Those from Belo Horizonte have only 13 goals, half of what the Academy did in the competition. A lethal weapon that you want to take advantage of.
