Jean Pierre Archimbaud scores Melgar’s 1-0 over Cuiabá | VIDEO

Melgar does not depend on himself to qualify for the next phase of the 2022 Copa Sudamericana. However, his goal is to beat Cuiabá to finish the group stage with joy and, for now, he is achieving it.

At 37 minutes, after a corner kick, Martín Pérez Guedes headed in and the ball hit Jean Pierre Archimbaud to overcome the resistance of the goal defended by João Carlos. The goal unleashed the hubbub in the UNSA Monumental.

However, despite the partial victory, the cast from Arequipa is eliminated from the competition due to Racing’s draw against River Plate (Uruguay). So far, the “Academy” has 13 units, while the Peruvian cast has 12 points.

On the other hand, Jean Pierre Archimbaud added his second entry in this continental competition. The popular ‘Chocherita’ had scored the last goal in the victory (2-1) over ‘Darsenero’ at the Montevideo Centenario.

Melgar vs. Cuiabá: the previous

Melgar will close his participation in the group stage in Arequipa. On this occasion, he will face Cuiabá, a cast with whom he fell on a visit to Brazil and with whom he hopes to collect his revenge. This time, he has Carlos Cáceda back, who was suspended the previous day for the red card they took against River Plate from Uruguay.

This season, the red and black team has kept the UNSA Monumental undefeated, both in Liga 1 and in the South American League, so they hope to maintain that streak, although a victory over the Brazilian team will be difficult.

For this date, the ‘Domino’ lost its leadership in the table, after falling by the slightest difference against Racing in the Cilindro de Avellaneda. However, if the Argentine team were to lose against the ‘charrúa’ team and the rojinegros win this match, they could keep the pass to the round of 16.
