Ronald Hernandez scored an injury time equalizer to earn minnows Venezuela a share of the spoils in a 2-2 draw with Ecuador at the Copa America on Sunday. Ecuador twice took the lead through Ayrton Preciado and Gonzalo Plata either side of a powerful headed goal from Venezuela's Edson Castillo. The point left Venezuela third in the five team group on two points, one point and one place above Ecuador, who have a game in hand. 

Hosts Brazil lead the group with a perfect two wins from two while Peru, who play Colombia later on Sunday, prop up the table. Ecuador were off to a bright start with both Leonardo Campana and Enner Valencia shooting narrowly wide from good scoring positions. Cristian Casseres was Venezuela's main threat but he skied one great chance from 12 yards out, before breaking the offside trap and seeing his chip over goalkeeper Pedro Ortiz cleared off the line by Pedro Hincapie. The deadlock was broken in scrappy circumstances six minutes before halftime.
