Paulo Guerrero takes Internacional to verge of Copa Libertadores berth

Rio de Janeiro: Paolo Guerrero has struck his fourth goal in three Brazilian Serie A matches as Internacional all but secured a berth in next year’s Copa Libertadores with a 1-0 victory at Botafogo. The Peru captain broke the deadlock in the 84th minute at the Olympic stadium with a low effort from outside the box that slipped through the gloves of Paraguayan goalkeeper Roberto Fernandez late on Saturday. Guerrero, who has been hampered by injuries and poor form in recent months, has now netted nine goals in 22 matches this Serie A campaign, reports Xinhua news agency. IANS
