    La Paz seemed a bit off, which brings me to my question: Do teams who play at high altitude get the same effects when they come to sea level, as sea level teams get in high altitude??

    I mean the goalie looked like it was his first game ever, maybe the ball moves different at high altitudes... I don't know:confused: just wondering.

    The goalie is just bad. He used to play for Ulbra, a third division team, and couldn't make the cut.

    True, but other than that Atlas couldn't score, i thought the difference was going to be 2 or 3 goals, on paper to me it looked like that. So La Paz may have a slight chance next week. Regarding the keeper mistake don't forget these Nike balls suck balls, how ironic, maybe this wasn't the case but still.

    Let's see what will Lanús do tonight.

    Actually I though he was alright,he just f!cked up on both gols.
    Now that tall,skinny morocho with the bean head(I believe he was their central forward)suck mighty big balls.He couldn't even dominar el balon.A real baller would not have missed the chances he had.

    No - no les pasa nada
    es mas - vienen tan oxigenados que corren como locos, lo unico que los perjudica es el alto nivel de perspiracion - a lo que no estan acostumbrados en la altura (por lo gerneral ciudades muy frias)

    Tsk. Lanús wasted too much time fooling around and speculating and didn't bother to score and eventually got scored against.

    The first half of Cienciano-Wanderers was pretty entertaining they deserved a higher difference in the score, although the 2nd half was so-so.

    F....ing Mineros sucked really bad,
    I could see this coming since they have 1 point in 2 games in Venezuela.

    Let's see if their "pretty" stadium helps them out
    and don't expect UAM and Caracas to play like this, they are at a different level than all the other teams in Venezuela.

    he is awful.... he used to play for Bolivar a couple of years ago when they advanced to the Copa Sudamerica final against Boca. He is the one that got scored on by another goalie.. off a goal kick I believe.

    Wow. Cerro must be pretty weak to get whooped like that at home by Cruzeiro.

    Pathetic. Game ended 20 minutes early because fans were throwing objects onto the field and at some Cruzeiro players non-stop.

    3x2 final
