📹 Bernard rescues Atlético-MG, they reach Sudamericana semis | OneFootball

At Arena MRV, Atlético-MG defeated Bolívar 1-0 on Wednesday (24), in the second leg of the quarter-finals of the Copa Conmebol Sudamericana.

Since the first leg ended 2-2 in Bolivia, the team from Minas Gerais managed to qualify for the semi-finals.

The match was technically weak and lacked creativity.

The Galo, the home team who had the obligation to seek victory, failed to present anything productive on the field. Especially in the first half.

In the second half, Atlético-MG attacked more, but still without creating much danger for the opposing goalkeeper.

And in stoppage time, after a cross from the right, Bernard appeared free at the far post to head in and secure the qualification.

🚦 What's next

With the victory, Atlético-MG awaits the winner of Once Caldas vs. Independiente del Valle (first leg 2-0) to know their opponent in the semi-finals.

The next phase of the continental tournament takes place on December 22 and 29.

Galo returns to the field on Saturday (27), when they host Mirassol at Arena MRV, for the 25th round of the Brasileirão.
