Gary RedknappFootball AnalystMATCH REPORT

Rodrigo Formento was the standout player with a 7.6 rating as Mushuc Runa beat Universidad Católica del Ecuador 3-2 away in Serie A, a result that sets up their next fixture at home to Independiente del Valle. The visitors struck a decisive blow just before half-time through Cristopher Angulo, then doubled their lead three minutes into the second half when Ronie Carrillo finished from Esteban Davila's pass after a VAR check.

Arnaldo Zambrano made it three for Mushuc Runa on 80 minutes with Tomson Minda providing the assist, and although Universidad Católica mounted a late fightback with Mauro Díaz pulling one back from Azarías Londoño's pass and Londoño himself scoring from Díaz's assist, the damage was done.

The statistics painted a contrary picture: Universidad Católica dominated possession with 68% and had 17 shots to Mushuc Runa's 16, yet the visitors' 32% share and lone corner told of a side that absorbed pressure and struck ruthlessly—Mushuc Runa actually outshot their hosts 9-4 in the first half before being outshot 13-7 after the break. Goalkeeper Formento earned his 7.6 rating as the clear man of the match, and CheckLive's model strongly favoured Universidad Católica but was proved wrong by the result. Mushuc Runa next host Independiente del Valle on 11 July.
