Buenos Aires, Nov 29 : Emmanuel Gigliotti scored twice as Argentine football club Independiente defeated Paraguay's Libertad 3-1 to secure a place in the Copa Sudamericana final here.
The result on Tuesday gave the Argentine outfit a 3-2 aggregate victory in the semi-final after the Paraguayan club won last week's first leg 1-0 in Asuncion, reports Xinhua news agency.
Teenage midfielder Ezequiel Barco opened the scoring with a 17th-minute penalty and Gigliotti doubled the hosts' lead by sliding in a first-time finish after a Maximiliano Meza cross.
Angel Cardozo headed in to put the visitors back on level terms overall before Gigliotti connected with Gaston Silva's pass to again find the net with just one touch.
Independiente will play the winner of the other semi-final between Brazil's Flamengo and Colombia's Junior in the final.
