Key Moments

The missed penalties in the 121st minute decided nothing on the scoreboard. LDU Quito failed from the spot and Palmeiras SP did likewise, leaving the fixture as a 6-6 draw rather than a game settled from 12 yards.

Keeping eleven on the field also mattered. None of the three yellow cards became a sending-off, so the draw was completed with both teams at full strength.

LDU Quito's territorial edge was not enough on its own. Control of the ball and a heavier shot volume still left the hosts with the same official goal count as Palmeiras SP.
