Deportivo Cuenca 1:2 Manta FC — Informe del Partido

Gary RedknappFootball AnalystINFORME DEL PARTIDO

Manta FC snatched a 1-2 away win over Deportivo Cuenca in Serie A, with Lucas Mancinelli's equaliser proving the standout moment for the hosts before they were ultimately undone, a result that sets up a home clash with Club Leones Del Norte on 15 August. The match turned on a frantic end to the first half, where Juan Nazareno had given Manta the lead on 15 minutes from Robert Burbano's assist, only for Mancinelli to level just before the break from Mateo Maccari's delivery, with Nazareno then booked in stoppage time.

Deportivo Cuenca utterly dominated the second period, pinning Manta back with relentless pressure and 73% possession, yet they could not find a winner, and their wastefulness proved costly as the visitors held on. The numbers told a brutal story for the hosts, who fired 24 shots to Manta's six and earned seven corners to one, but controlled the game without reward, outplayed yet beaten on the day. Lucas Mancinelli was the standout with a 7.7 rating, his goal from the forward position the only real quality his side produced amid the storm.
