Re: CONCACAF finalist to Copa Sudamericana could you imagine a 9 hrs trip to brazil or bolivia for a game? very convinient! unless they play Pumas on the 1st round!
Re: CONCACAF finalist to Copa Sudamericana As a DC fan I am very excited about this. I have wanted to see DC play some of the bigger teams in the Western Hemisphere for a while, and play better competition more consistantly. Hopefully (and I know this will piss a lot of South Americans off, but...) this is just a test to see how MLS teams could fare in the Copa Libertadores. I would love to see DC in that some day against the best of the best teams in the Americas.
Re: CONCACAF finalist to Copa Sudamericana And these games will be in September and October when DC United will be peaking and playing at their best in the midst of their title run - Esky will be back on form, Adu will be getting better and the defense will be strengthened by a defender from San Lorenzo - But then there might be fire sale on players from Boca Jrs too - DC United will do MUCH better than they did in March and early April against Pumas

Re: CONCACAF finalist to Copa Sudamericana Funny business? I don't think so. It is rather a complicated business. Each club has its own story so it is not easy to put a tournament together to satisfy the interest of each single club. I love it because finally there is going to be one that will bring us together for good or bad at the end of the day. But first let the games begin.
Re: CONCACAF finalist to Copa Sudamericana DC United, Pumas, and Club America are confirmed for Sudamericana. http://www.conmebol.com/comunicados_ver.jsp?id=57951&slangab=S
Re: CONCACAF finalist to Copa Sudamericana I don't care that much about the Copa Sudamericana...The CL is another story.
Re: CONCACAF finalist to Copa Sudamericana DC to the Sudamericana? interesting. Now I have a few questions: 1. Who are the two chilean teams that will go to the Sudamericana? 2. To the chilenos (or anybody that knows for that matter) - out of the two, which one is currently the strongest? It looks like if Universitario goes through the chilenos, we will play DC, meaning, my a$$ will be driving down to DC to see my beloved club!
Re: CONCACAF finalist to Copa Sudamericana Hmm interesting. Well seeing neither of these two big teams from chile will be in the final of their own league, it seems like they aren't as good this year. Well all i'm hoping is for these two teams not to make any important buys for the Sudamericana... and that they continue to suck of course.. I hope.
Re: CONCACAF finalist to Copa Sudamericana U Catolica should be the strongest one, but they have a tendency to choke when it matters the most. They have enough quality players to make 2 teams, and it seems like they are keeping most of the team (Acuña would be the only significant lost... he would be going back to Feyenoord). They lost to Union Española in penalties and with that the chance to go the final. U de Chile was affected by the Libertadores run... they sold important players (like Nelson Pinto) and I have no idea how much they are gonna spend to build once again a competitive team. If Iturra leaves as well, you'll see a very diminished team in midfield... he's a great player. Either way, I see Catolica winning the chilean key... and if that happens, it'll be a russian roulette from then on because I either see them performing really well or really, really bad. Can you tell me more about the Peruvian teams? All of this makes the wait a little bit shorter until the cup starts.
Re: CONCACAF finalist to Copa Sudamericana Ill let one of the many crema fans tell you about their team about alianza atletico they are currently sitting last in the apertura, most of the team that got them the spot for the sudamericana has gone elsewhere which basically means la U (first in apertura) will be the team that chileans will be facing, i would be very surprised if alianza atletico actually makes it that far
Re: CONCACAF finalist to Copa Sudamericana Good info! Anyways, count on Universitario being there against the chilean team. Btw, second leg is in Lima.
Re: CONCACAF finalist to Copa Sudamericana Estudiantes (AR), Rosario Central (AR) , and El Nacional (EC) also are in.
Re: Copa Sudamericana 2005 Let's try to keep this thread focused on teams that are playing in Copa Sudamericana. If you want to talk about who should not be playing, go to the other thread. https://www.bigsoccer.com/forum/showthread.php?t=203303
Re: Copa Sudamericana 2005 is DC United playing against U. Catholica?. If I remember well they had a few friendlies here in the MLS already, cant remember the results though.
Re: Copa Sudamericana 2005 No, not yet... DC will play the winner of the Peruvian and Chilean brackets. Alianza Atletico vs. Universitario is the Peruvian bracket and U. Catolica vs. U de Chile is the Chilean bracket. Question to chileans: Now that Salas will not continue in River Plate, what are the chances of him going to U. de Chile and playing the Sudamericana?
Re: Copa Sudamericana 2005 Apparently Salas would only stay in River if they manage to make it to the next Copa Libertadores, which at this point seems almost impossible. If he leaves River, it seems U de Chile will tempt him with a really juicy offer, besides the fact that he'd be residing close to his daughter and that would be important to him. However, it seems that a Brasilian team might want his services now, and since Salas is looking to stay at a competitive level more than likely he'll look at this offer more seriously than any of the offers U de Chile might give him. So, I'd say it's a 50/50 chance that he ends up in U de Chile. Time will tell.
