São Paulo lose at Morumbi, LDU to face Palmeiras in semi-finals | OneFootball

Defeat in the first leg by 2-0 and in the second leg by 1-0 eliminates São Paulo in the quarterfinals of the Libertadores

São Paulo is out of the Libertadores. This is because LDU (EQU) managed to win the first leg by 2-0 and the second leg by 1-0. The second match took place this Thursday (25) at Morumbis.

After losing at altitude by 2-0, the Paulista team showed anxiety and haste, as they wasted clear goal chances with Rigoni and Luciano. LDU, however, took advantage of a mistake by Bobadilla to score with Medina at 40' of the first half.

The final stage seemed a repetition of the first half, except that there was no Ecuadorian goal. Even so, São Paulo again missed chances to bother LDU on the scoreboard. On this occasion, however, the home team could not blame the altitude.

Who will LDU face?

LDU has another Brazilian ahead, as Palmeiras qualified for the semifinals after steamrolling River Plate (ARG) on Wednesday (24). Thus, the team from Allianz Parque and the Ecuadorians decide a spot for the final.

Is Flamengo also in the semis?

To advance to the semifinal of the Libertadores, Filipe Luís's Flamengo needs at least an equal result. This is because the Rubro-Negro beat Estudiantes de La Plata (ARG) in the first match by 2-1.

The return takes place from 21:30 (Brasília time), with full coverage from Coluna do Fla. In addition, this Thursday's (25) match will be broadcast by ESPN (cable channel) and Disney+ (streaming).
