The Copa Libertadores is a championship played by all the south American teams and they invited three teams from Mexico to play for the championship. This week they are playing the quarter finals and two Mexicans teams continue in the fight which is very awesome because they never get to far. In Wednesday May 14, 2008 Atlas from Guadalajara, Mexico will play against Boca Juniors from Argentina. Boca is the favorite team to win the championship so its going to be a very interesting game because this year they both played against each others twice. The first time was in their groups they played in Argentina and Boca defeated Atlas three to zero,  but later tBoca went to Mexico and Atlas beat Boca three to one. This indicates that there’s going too be a very interesting game. Another fact is that Boca Juniors against Mexican teams has one five games, one draw, and six defeats. This tells us that Boca has a hard time playing against Mexican teams. A good thing is that Boca is not playing in their famous stadium which their they are undefeated, but now they have to play in another Argentinian stadium that both teams don’t know the stadium very well. The stadium called Bombonera is closed by the Conmebol because people where throwing a lot of garbage to the visitants which the team got penalized with there stadium. The Conmebol is the federation of soccer in South America. In the other hand America from Mexico City is going to play against Santos from Brazil. America is favorite in this game because they beat a Brazilian team Flamengo in a incredible and miracle game. This was because in Mexico Flamengo defeated America four to two, but in Flamengo stadium they lost three to zero. This was a miracle because to beat a Brazilian team in the stadium Maracana three to zero is very difficult. This way America past to the quarter finals playing against Santos. I hope good luck in there soccer games to the Atlas and America.
