In the middle of this week, the Libertadores semifinals brought together four season title contenders. On the one hand, Atlético-MG and River Plate meet, while Peñarol and Botafogo compete on the other, with the focus on the decision. Of the surviving clubs, only Rio’s Alvinegro is still seeking the unprecedented trophy.
According to Conmebol’s original calendar, the next phase of matches, which will determine the finalists of the current edition, will take place at the end of October – the 23rd and 30th weeks. However, the entity itself will still detail the table, with date and time. The only Brazilian players, Glorioso and Galo will play their first duel at home and determine the place in the away match.
Just like in recent years, the Libertadores final will again be played in one match, this time in the capital city of Buenos Aires, Argentina. In fact, there has been no announcement regarding the stadium, even though River Plate’s Monumental de Nuñez is the favorite in the race. The champion will emerge on November 30 and the ball is likely to roll at 17.00 Brasília time.
