Mumbai, October 30: Brazil's Atletico Mineiro drew 0-0 at Argentina's River Plate and reached the final of the Copa Libertadores for the second time. The team of veteran striker Hulk had beaten its rivals 3-0 in the first leg of the semifinal. The festive atmosphere at the full Monumental de Nunez Stadium with more than 80,000 fans did not affect the Brazilian side, which had some of the clearest chances to score. Cruzeiro Striker Rafa Silva Sent Off Just Three Seconds Into Play After 3–0 Loss to Athletico Paranaense.

Atletico's rival in the decider will be decided on Wednesday, and it is very likely to be fellow Brazilian side Botafogo. The Rio de Janeiro-based team will play at Uruguay's Penarol after winning the first leg 5-0. Brazilian teams have won the tournament for the past five years. The final will be played on Nov. 30 at the same Monumental de Nunez Stadium in Buenos Aires.
