Vizeu double fires Flamengo to Copa Sudamericana final

Vizeu double fires Flamengo to Copa Sudamericana finalBarranquilla, Dec 1 (IANS) A second-half brace from Felipe Vizeu fired Brazilian football club Flamengo to a 2-0 victory over Colombian side Junior de Barranquilla in their Copa Sudamericana semi-final here on Thursday.

The result at Estadio Metropolitano handed Flamengo a 4-1 win on aggregate after their 2-1 win in last week's first leg at the Maracana stadium, reports Xinhua.

The Rio de Janeiro side will meet Argentina's Independiente in the final over two legs on December 6 and 13.

 

Vizeu broke the deadlock just after half-time when he gathered possession just inside his own half and broke away from two markers before arrowing a shot past Sebastian Viera.

The 20-year-old, who also scored in the first leg, netted his second goal of the match with a first-time finish after a Rodinei cross from the left flank.

The winner of the Copa Sudamericana will earn a place in next year's Copa Libertadores, South America's top club football competition.
