Ronald Hernandez scored his first international goal in stoppage time to give Venezuela a dramatic 2-2 draw against Ecuador in its Copa America clash on Sunday.
Ayrton Preciado put Ecuador ahead with a scrambled goal six minutes before half-time but Edson Castillo bulleted home a header after 51 minutes to equalise.
Substitute Gonzalo Plata raced the length of the field to give Ecuador a 2-1 lead with 19 minutes remaining but Hernandez got on the end of a 40-metre pass to loop a header past a stranded keeper in the 91st minute.
The result means Ecuador has one point from two games in Group B and Venezuela has two points from three.
