Video: Chile vs Ecuador: 3-2. Goalkeeping was a letdown

Carlos Villaneuva scores the winner through this sweetly struck freekick.
An inert slow reacting Cristian Mora lets down the Ecuadorians in goal with the Villaneuva freekick winner. Humberto Suazo’s second goal would have never taken place if Mora had done one of two things, closed the gap rapidly or stood his ground. He stood inert and then flopped even before Suazo struck the ball. His poor goalkeeping was matched by Peru’s Claudio Bravo who was hopelessly caught out of position with the Luis Valencia goal and the Christian Benitez header.
Both Mora and Bravo are stand outs for their club teams but they did not have a good day in goal. To be frank they were also not helped by some shoddy defending.
But Humberto “El Chupete” Suazo is justifying his hype. With very little backlift he was able to generate tremendous power in his first goal.
