Copa Libertadores Review: River, Inter through to semis

River Plate recovered from a first-leg loss to advance to the final-four of the Copa Libertadores via a 3-0 win over Cruzeiro.

Marcelo Gallardo and Co. were stunned 1-0 at home by Brazilian champions Cruzeiro in Buenos Aires last week.

Maidana doubled River's lead on the stroke of half-time after heading Ariel Rojas' corner into the roof of the net.

Unused substitute Miguel Borja was also sent off for Santa Fe after the final whistle.
