Although Peñarol were defeated on the night 2–1, they progressed to the finals on the away goals rule as the aggregate score was 2–2 over after they had won the 1st leg 1–0 in Uruguay a week prior.[3] Mier played both legs of the finals, where they lost 2–1 on aggregate to Santos.
Universidad Católica
[edit]On 18 July 2011, it was reported that Argentine Primera División club Racing Club were interested in purchasing Mier for the next season, because Mariano González recommended the player to Racing manager Diego Simeone.[4]
Two days later, on 20 July, Chilean Primera División club Universidad Católica signed Mier on a three-year contract, which would keep him at the club until 2014.[5][6] On 22 July, he was officially presented during a press conference.[7] He made his Primera División debut against Deportes Iquique,[8] and his first goal came on 13 August in a 4–0 win over Unión La Calera.[9]
In November 2011, Mier won his first trophy as a professional when Universidad Católica won the 2011 Copa Chile, beating Deportes Magallanes on penalties in the finals.
In January 2014, he was loaned out to Santiago Wanderers.[10][11] In August 2015, he was loaned out to Rentistas, rejoining the club after nine years.[12][13] He impressed with Rentistas, scoring ten goals in 28 appearances.
In January 2016, he was expected to join Atlético Bucaramanga,[14] but the deal fell through.[15]
Muaither
[edit]On 12 June 2016, Mier joined Qatar Stars League club Muaither and only made 2 appearances for the club before leaving.
Return to Peñarol
[edit]In February 2017 he returned to Uruguay with Peñarol.[16] On 28 April 2017, after Palmeiras beat Peñarol in the 2017 Copa Libertadores, there was a mass brawl, and Mier received a three match suspension for fighting Palmeiras defender Felipe Melo.[17] At the end of the Apertura tournament Mier left the club.

La Equidad

However, Mineiro won the match 3–1 and eliminated La Equidad from the tournament on 28 August.[24] On 14 September 2019, Mier scored the only goal in a victory against Patriotas Boyacá.[25] Mier scored three more goals in the 2019 Finalizacion tournament, against America de Cali, Patriotas again, and Cúcuta Deportivo.[26]
Mier had a great individual season in the 2020 Categoría Primera A season, where he scored 10 goals in 19 appearances. His first two goals came in a 4–1 victory against Cucuta on 23 February.[27] He scored another two goals, including an Olympic goal, in a 4–0 victory against Boyaca Chico in September.[28] In October, he scored goals in victories against Independiente Medellin and Deportes Tolima, before adding his third brace of the season in a 2–1 victory against America at Estadio Pascual Guerrero, which helped his team secure qualification for the playoffs in the last round.[29]
Independiente Medellin
