News: Estudiantes, de grado y champaña Estudiantes de La Plata ganó anoche su cuarta Copa Santander Libertadores, luego de vencer 2-1 a Cruzeiro, en su casa, en el partido de vuelta de la final. More...
Man that really sucks that Cruzeiro lost but, I have to hand it to estudiantes they just outplayed them.
Congratulations to Estudiantes and El Bruxo- well deserved! Cruzeiro was either drunk or had no idea what they were doing in that huge stadium...
Missed the game because the place I went to didn't carry Fox en Espanol! They carried GolTv and Fox Soccer only. You support Flu & Flamengo?? Am I missing something?
It's called glory hunting. I have met people that support Milan, Inter, Real Madrid, AND Barcelona AT THE SAME TIME...
They definetly dissapointed their own barras but big time...much bigger than a usual loss... They tied in La Plata 0-0... They were playing the 2nd leg at home in fron of their own... They were 1-0 in the beginning of the second half... Even if Estudiantes would have tied the game, they had an extra 30 minutes of extra time AT HOME... Not to mention, away goals didn't even count... I don't know what other advantages they could ask for. They literally had everything to win. This is a classic choke, a classic collapse, or a classic meltdown...you pick...
sadly for Cruzeiro and its fans, what you say is all true... I'm just glad it wasn't my team. I was supporting Cruzeiro as it's from Brazil; if that had been SPFC... *shaking head*
A Classice Choke? Maybe Club Saprissa and Costa Rica can show the Brazilians How it's Done. Classic Choke. MFG..Now go cry to the mods like the little girl you are.
se le olvido el tiro en el palo y las salvadas de Fabio en la plata! kojones y mas kojones para los de veron y Braña.
Los dos equipos tenian tremendo huevos..But to call it a Choke?? LMAO. Where do they get these Characters from I have no idea.
I read today that Veron passed on $3 million offered by MLS to try to rebuild Estudiantes. Admirable.
Estudiantes was better in both games and deserved the title. there's no question about it. to me, Cruzeiro was disappointing 'cause the team doesn't played it's best.
I guess this was a very exciting final for the neutrals. Congrats to both teams for that. Now let's see what Estudiantes can do at the CWC.
