By IANS News May 08, 2024 • 13:28 PM View: 805

Former Bayer Leverkusen: Former Bayer Leverkusen forward Paulinho Sampaio struck late as Atletico Mineiro kept their perfect record intact with a 1-0 win at Rosario Central in their Copa Libertadores group match.

Paulinho broke the deadlock three minutes from time by sweeping home a first-time effort from 10 yards after Eduardo Vargas' clever lay-off.

The result leaves the Brazilian club with four wins from as many outings in Group G, six points clear of second-placed Penarol. Argentina's Rosario Central are third, two points further back, reports Xinhua.
