Uruguay v Columbia @ 2am to meet Argentina in the final.
Might try to stay up for it.
Will either be a brilliant game or 6 red cards and 3 career enders.

Well worth a watch. Bielsa going absolutely nuts. If as he says, those players were protecting their families, they should be given medals, not bans

And anyway, it was Nunez, he missed them all.

Big game in Brazil tonight with the top 2 playing eachother. Botafogo probably have a better chance at winning the Copa Libertadores at the weekend than they do at winning the league.

Credit to Botafogo winning with ten-men for the entirety of the final.

They went and won at Palmeiras days before to give them an advantage in the league title race too.

Barring some freakish Spurs-like behaviour, Botafogo are league and Copa Libertadores double winners. Lovely goal by Jeferson Savarino, and Palmeiras are losing at home to Fluminense.
