AMBATO, Ecuador (Interstat) — Jorge Valencia scored twice in second-half stoppage time to propel Manta to a 3-2 comeback victory over Técnico Universitario in a Liga Pro match Saturday at Estadio Bellavista.

Manta’s Elvis Patta opened the scoring just before halftime. After Técnico Univ. took a 2-1 lead on goals from Christian Alemán and Ramiro Cristóbal, Valencia leveled the match and then netted the winner moments later. The game was marred by a 23rd-minute red card shown to Técnico Univ.’s Fabrizio Almeida. Manta begins its league season 1-0, while Técnico Univ. starts 0-1.
