SAO PAULO, May 2 (SW) - Brazilian side Santos beat Cucuta Deportivo 2-0 on Thursday and have a good chance of advancing to the quarter finals in the Copa Libertadores.

Lima opened the score for Santos after 18 minutes, and the crowd in Sao Paulo watched their home team get another through Molina in the 71st minute.

It wasn't all good news however, as Wesley conceded a red card and won't be able to make an appearance in the second leg.

The return leg will be played in the Colombian city of Cucuta, near the Venezuelan border, on May 9th.
