joepinetree posted:We have contradicting injunctions in place, making it likely that the only way to resolve the issue would be when it reaches the Brazilian supreme court, which would take a while, making it very likely that we will have some sort of change in the rules to accommodate the ongoing drama. Quoting myself here to refresh people's memory. Remember the mess from last year? Portuguesa, the team that was relegated by extra field decisions, was supposed to play their first game in the 2nd division yesterday. Until a court representative showed up and blocked the game from continuing given the existing injunction. Things are about to become interesting again.

Was glad to see Atletico Nacional win last night, watched it here with a Cruzeiros fan who was happy too! Here's hoping they can go all the way. I watched them when I was up in Medellin and it was a fine experience.

A semi final with Defensor Sporting, Nacional (P), Bolivar and San Lorenzo, why don't just leave the title vacant and start again next year. At least it will be the first final without Brazilians since 2004.

If Cruzeiro gets by San Lorenzo, I think they will win it. They are in the "sweet spot" for a South American team, which is that of having a bunch of good but not great players, which means that they are unlikely to lose someone to Europe over the break. I doubt Defensor will be able to keep Arrascaeta after the break, for example, so them being the best team left right now can completely change.

De Arrascaeta is going to Turkey after the break, it seems. They might lose 5 more players including Gedoz so they are pretty much hosed if they make the semis.

If they were able to keep everybody together, I'd say Defensor. But as they are not likely to, I'd say Cruzeiro or Bolivar.

Bolivar isn't very good, but unlike most other Bolivian teams, they can sort of hold their own away from home. That, coupled with playing in the altitude makes them a very dangerous team in this competition format. They tied with Lanus in Argentina, 1x1, meaning they have a huge advantage playing at home.

León won and are the double champs for the 2013-2014 Apertura and Clausura season. Liga MX will be back later this year but without Atlante since they got relegated but Club de Fútbol Leones Negros de la Universidad de Guadalajara aka Leones Negros will replace them for the next season.

2 weeks until the semis. Is the Recopa Sudamericana worth watching? It's next week. Seems like Lanus and Atletico Mineiro would be a good matchup. Also I tried doing some research into how the qualifying works for the copa sudamericana and the libertadores work, and holy poo poo what a convoluted mess.

At least in Brazil the Libertadores qualifying is straightforward, but the sudamericana is a mess. Teams knocked out in early rounds of the Brazil cup are invited to Sudamericana and etc. As for Lanus and Atletico, Atletico is already in Buenos Aires training at AFA's facilities (since Argentina is training at the Atletico practice facilities). And I am hyped. Let me just say that the following happened the last time Lanus and Atletico reached a South American final: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JgN4gQKSMLs Leao still has a steel plate in his face from this fight, Ruggeri was suspended for so long for instigating it he retired. I was at second leg in Belo Horizonte and the fear of reprisals was so great that there were a ton of police there. I saw more police at mineirao that day than at at world cup match this year.

I definitely need to get into South America more after this World Cup. Hoping I can find some way to watch the recopa and the libertadores, just to see if Pope Francis' team manages to pull it off. Sadly I'm pretty sure my real team (Belgrano de Córdoba) will never make it into the libertadores, but maybe the sudamericana some day!

Do they qualify for the libertadores and sudamericana? Also, if a team wins the sudamericana, they qualify for both the sudamericana and libertadores? Seems weird that the concept seems to be the libertadores being the big competition, and the sudamericana being for all the second best teams, but a team could hypothetically win both, assuming I'm getting this right. Recopa wouldn't be very interesting that year.  But the top 4 teams and the winner of the copa do brasil making the libertadores, as well as last years libertadores champions seems straightforward enough. quote:As for Lanus and Atletico, Atletico is already in Buenos Aires training at AFA's facilities (since Argentina is training at the Atletico practice facilities).

Also rooting for San Lorenzo. None of the teams left has ever made the final, which is pretty cool.

Seems weird that the concept seems to be the libertadores being the big competition, and the sudamericana being for all the second best teams, but a team could hypothetically win both, assuming I'm getting this right. Recopa wouldn't be very interesting that year. No, because Libertadores teams only enter Copa do Brasil at the round of 16 stage. If a team wins the sudamericana, they qualify only for the libertadores. Can't play both the same year. The 8 Brazilian teams that make it are the winners of the northeast cup and 7 teams who were eliminated before the round of 16 in Copa do Brasil who finished the best the previous year. This way, Libertadores teams are automatically kept from sudamericana. So, for example, last year's sudamericana included both a team that was relegated in 2012 and a team that played the second division in 2012. It is entirely possible we will have a second division Brazilian team playing it again. All it takes is most teams ahead of them making it to the round of 16. quote:
It really depends on the match up. Last year it was Sao Paulo v Corinthians, so it also got a lot of attention.

How soon after the World Cup will the Uruguayan and Argentinian leagues be on? I'm in very southern Brazil now and would love to watch some games but I'll be in Montevideo probably in a couple of weeks or so and then Argentina after that.
