QUITO (SW) - Liga de Quito are close to winning their first Copa Libertadores title following a 4-2 win over Fluminense in the first final leg.

Bieler opened the score for the home side after only two minutes but Conca levelled for 'Flu' nine minutes later.

But the Ecuador outfit then went on to show why they come this far by scoring three more goals before the break.

Guerron restored the lead in the 28th minute, and Campos Leon (33rd) and Urrutia (45th) gave the hosts a comfortable lead at half time.

Thiago Neves got a goal back for the Brazilians in the 52nd minute, and that goal will give Fluminense some hope for the return leg which is to be played in Rio de Janeiro on July 3rd.
