Cienciano advances to Sudamercana quarter-finals

Overview

Cienciano has advanced to the Copa Sudamericana quarter-finals after defeating Botafogo with a 6-2 aggregate score. The Peruvian side secured a dominant 6-1 victory in the first leg at the Estadio Inca Garcilaso de la Vega in Cusco, featuring a hat-trick by Matías Succar. This result marked the largest margin of defeat suffered by a Brazilian club in a CONMEBOL-organized tournament. Despite a 1-0 loss in the second leg at the Nilton Santos Stadium, Cienciano’s massive initial advantage ensured their progression, marking their first quarter-final appearance in 23 years.

Following the round of 16, CONMEBOL confirmed that Cienciano will face Uruguay’s Montevideo City Torque in the quarter-finals. City Torque reached this stage after defeating Tigre 3-1 on aggregate, marking the first time the club has reached the quarter-finals of a CONMEBOL competition. Match dates and hosting details for the quarter-final series have not yet been confirmed.

In the wake of their victory, Cienciano was issued a $5,000 fine by CONMEBOL’s Disciplinary Unit. The sanction resulted from violations of the tournament’s Club Manual and Security Regulations regarding the media tribune at the Inca Garcilaso de la Vega stadium, specifically concerning standards for visibility, lighting, and connectivity for journalists. The fine will be deducted from the club’s pending revenue.

For Botafogo, the elimination follows a period of institutional crisis, including the dismissal of head coach Franclim Carvalho and ongoing financial instability.
