For those not aware River currently have a covid crisis with 10 players out anf no goalkeepers available. It is being reported that they wont be able to call up a goalkeeper from the youths and will have to use an outfield player in goal when they travel to Santa Fe.

Hopefully, common sense will prevail - not always the case in SA football.
 
Reports that CONMEBOL may make Argentina the sole host of the upcoming copa america. Given the problems in Colombia it's said that CONMEBOL have spoken with Independiente to add the Estadio Libertadores de América as one of the additional stadiums
 
A small group of football fans representing different teams have gathered outside the Colombian Football Federation's offices in Bogotá to protest against Colombia's co-hosting of next month's Copa América as part of the wave of protests that have been sweeping the country.

Score on Santa Fe ! Common sense and Conmebol are never in the same room let alone the same sentence :)) :)) :shh:

CONMEBOL reject River Plate's appeal to add an additional goalkeeper to their Libertadores squad. Marcelo Gallardo will be forced to start an outfield player in goal against Independiente Santa Fe tomorrow.

It looks like they will start their game with 10 players and fullback Milton Casco in goals.

If Santa Fe don't win this comfortably they should just chuck it.
 
Tomas Lecanda and Felipe Peña will get their first team debuts versus Santa Fe. That makes it 39 academy players that Gallardo has now given a debut!
 
Terrible news about the Covid levels! We’ve heard all about Brazil over here in U.K. but little or nothing about the rest of SA. Absolutely nothing about the troubles in Colombia!
 
Cracking game between Palmeiras and Defensa y Justica! Much changed Palmeiras side, having already qualified, but still a right good watch. 4-3 Defensa with a last seconds winner :)) Copa keeps supplying these games:)):))
 
It is amazing how little of the Covid story we get apart from the over emotional

"I am here in the favellas of Rio....."
