Universitario lost 2-1 to Corinthians at the Monumental Stadium and were eliminated from the Copa Sudamericana. There were several tense moments leading up to and during the match, such as the final-minute fight after Timao’s second goal. These provocations did not stop on the field, but continued off the field, especially on the social networks of the Brazilian club and fans.
After several piquant releases from Corinthians, the club uploaded an image to their official Twitter account showing the Universitario de Deportes shield pierced by a pirate sword. This picture angered meringue fans; while Timao fans took it with decency.
“Now he’s in the round of 16! Timao defeated Universitario, at home and on a visit, to secure qualification for the next phase of the Conmebol Sudamericana. Come on Corinthians!” reads the message accompanying the image.
