Ecuador's Antonio Valencia and Enner Valencia combined wonderfully before halftime to cut Peru's lead by one as time slowed down for the latter to control the pass with his chest, aim and fire home with purpose.

The two Valencias, of no relation despite coming through the same youth ranks, couldn't have orchestrated the goal any better, with Antonio timing his chipped pass perfectly and Enner volleying the effort with equal measures of power and accuracy.

It's now only fitting that Enner returns the favour with an assist for Antonio sometime in the second half.
