    Atlético Nacional win the pens!

    Feel kind of bad for Rogério Ceni. Over 1000 games at it ends like that at the Morumbi (only a 'show' game against Figueirense there left for him). He was the only São Paulo player to score his penalty as well. Two years in a row that São Paulo have fallen in the semi-finals.

    Atlético Nacional into their first final since 2002 (the first edition of the Copa Sudamericana), and first Colombian side to do it in a decade when Once Caldas won the Libertadores.

    So a busy night.

    Atlético Mineiro won the Copa do Brasil

    Atlético Nacional made the Sudamericana final. With São Paulo's defeat, this is the first time since 1935 that all four members of São Paulo state's big four have failed to win a trophy.

    Rogério Ceni has extended his contract again! His new contract is until August so he can play in the Libertadores again. He has an option to extended again.

    1183 games and counting...

    Godoy Cruz's defence has just fallen apart here. Little Olimpo (lowest goalscorers in the league) are 2 x 0 up already. All that bodes very well for Racing who face Godoy in their last game on Saturday. Racing win that and they win their first league title since 2001.

    Edit: 3 x 0. Borja combines well with Mauricio Cuero. Borja charges at the defence and plays a quick one-two and clean through on goal after.

    Copa Libertadores 2015 draw happening right now. Thing is always a bit of a mess seeing that so many teams still have to qualify. San Lorenzo are the only team that made it to the semi's last season that qualified this time out (and only because they won the thing). Imagine that happening in Europe...

    This has to be the shittiest, longest draw in the history of draws. Two bands; an obituary, an * kissing sess, a look at the World Cup, Chile next year, last years tournament, a history of the * thing. It's always bad but this is maybe the worst one yet. Get on with it! :31: :smiley-laughing002:

    EDIT: The singer is back out :52:. Say what you want about UEFA, but at least this crap would never get on the stage at one of their events :smiley-laughing002:

    Copa Sudamericana final tonight. Atlético Nacional x River Plate. Some retro football for the occasion, look out for a Marcelo Gallardo, current River manager. Juan Pablo Ángel, who started that game will probably be on the bench tonight for Atlético.

    Recibimiento for Atlético Nacional.

    Atlético Nacional have been by far the best side. Good at holding the ball, and good pressing instantly when they lose the ball. Edwin Cardona in the middle is something special I think.

    I stuck a tenner on over 1.5 goals @ 11/8 after 20 mins.

    Over 2.5 was 4/1 which would have ordinarily tempted me, but i expected a low scoring game.Might change now though!
