Cienciano delivered a sensational performance at the Estadio Inca Garcilaso de la Vega, crushing Botafogo 6-1 in a dominant CONMEBOL Sudamericana display. The Peruvian side exploded into life with two goals in quick succession from M. Succar in the 18th minute, assisted by A. Hohberg, and N. Bandiera in the 20th, set up by M. Amondarain. Succar completed his brace just before the half-hour mark, with M. Martinich adding a fourth in the 35th minute, again courtesy of a Hohberg assist. Despite a brief resurgence from Botafogo, with Matheus Martins pulling one back in the 49th minute, Cienciano reasserted their control. Bandiera netted his second in the 62nd minute, and Succar completed his hat-trick in the 78th, rounding off a truly emphatic victory for the hosts.
