But yes, Soteldo is such a good player. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stan 10,397 Posted January 13 Santos' defending is ridiculous. Not luck, either. Putting bodies on the line. They want this so much more than Boca. Love it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Carnivore Chris 1,981 Posted January 13 (edited) Santos are the far better side tonight, lovely goal by Soteldo, but Marinho has also been a constant threat down the right(although should have made it 4-0 a minute ago) and the team have generally played well as a unit. But for as well as Santos have played from an attacking perspective in this second half, they have also defended very well and are putting 100% effort in. Boca just aren't in this game at all(due to how well Santos are playing) and I could see Santos furthering their lead with a few more goals. An all Brazilian final looks likely. I will personally be cheering for Palmeiras, as they are my favourite Brazilian side, although I don't see their chances being too high as Santos have more quality about them. Anything can occur in a focal though and they certainly have a chance. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They've been a quite dominant force in Brazil since they came back up from Serie B, but they can't quite get that Libertadores title. I do like Santos because of Kaio Jorge and Yeferson Soteldo but I think the narrative revolving Palmeiras is a bit better. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stan 10,397 Posted January 14 Santos strolled that in all honesty. 3-0 doesn't flatter them at all. Definitely deserve the win and progression to the Maracana! Look forward to the final. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Watched Boca vs Racing last night @El Profesor @Berserker. Expected more from Racing but Boca were totally dominant. Racing could barely string 3 passes together all game. Boca could have won by more than 2-0 if it wasn't for Racing's keeper. Villa on the left wing was good. Probably man of the match. Tevez influential too. Boca is shit they stole the league from us but they've been shit from for more than 10 years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
