In the 71st minute the visitor rubbed the lamp, and in a quick and perfectly put together attacking play, Endrich enabled Veiga and the scorer scored his second goal. Liverpool were excited in the 74th when Colombian referee Andrés Rojas scored a penalty for a clear handball in the Murilo area, but after consulting the VAR he revised his decision due to offside by Jean Pierre Rosso at the beginning of the play.

Eight minutes later, Verdao’s third: corner and two headers in the six-yard box, the second of them lethal, from winger Endrick. And then two more goals, one from Rony, and the fifth from Gustavo Gómez, from a penalty, after Rosso fouled Rony, at the end of the game.
