Fluminense gave up a late goal to Mexican side America. Flu lost 1-0 on the road at Azteca Stadium and now is in danger of not making it out of Group play in the Copa Libertadores.

Daniel Marquez Palacios nailed the match winner in the 75^th minute.

Flu currently is in third place after three matches.

Fluminense has two points.

This is one step above stink.

Argentinos Juniors is top dog with seven points.

America is in second place with six points.

Flu has three matches left and they realistically need to run the table to make to out of group play.

Santos didn’t fair much better either.

Peixe and Cerro Porteri tied one all.

Santos is in third place with two points after two matches.

At least Peixe is not outta touch with the leaders Cerro Porteri.

Cerro Porteri has four points.

Second place belongs to Colo Colo with three points.

At least Gremio, Internacional, and Cruzeiro are holding up Brasileiros pride.

This is only the start so anything can happen.

Flu is the club that is in the most danger so far with three matches remaining.

Internacional is the defending 2010 Copa Champion and Colorado became the first South American side not to make to the FIFA World Club Championship finals.

Way to go garoto.

Internacional took care of business at Porto Alegre. Colorado took it to Chivas 3-2 to win the Copa Libertadores.

Chivas scored the first goal of the match in the 42^nd minute. Fabian ripped the twines for a 1-0 Guadalajara lead.

The opening marker by Fabian sent shock waves through the fans at Porto Alegre.

Globo Esporte put it this way- Não podia ser verdade. Quando Fabián subiu dentro da área colorada e emendou um voleio, simplesmente não podia ser verdade. Simplesmente não podia ser verdade aquela bola entrando no canto direito de Renan. Não podia ser verdade aquela rede balançando enquanto os jogadores do Chivas corriam de um lado para o outro, eufóricos, incrédulos. Aos 42 minutos do primeiro tempo, o time mexicano largou na frente. A zaga bobeou, permitiu o cruzamento, permitiu a conclusão perfeita de Fabián. Não podia ser verdade. E era a mais pura e dolorida verdade.

Internacional was unfazed by this and went on a run scoring the next three goals in succession to put this baby out of reach.

Rafael Sobis goal in the 61^stminute righted the ship for Internacional.

Leandro Damiao scored the goal ahead goal in the 75^th minute.

Giuliano scored the match winner in the 89^th minute.

Game, set, and match to Internacional.

Globo Esporte had this to say- Tem sujeito que nasceu para transcender o conceito de jogador de futebol. Tem sujeito que nasceu para ser mais do que um cara bom de bola. Tem sujeito que nasceu para fazer dois gols no Morumbi e ser herói. Que nasceu para, quatro anos depois, marcar no Beira-Rio e ser mais herói ainda. Rafael Sobis, colorado de coração, apaixonado pelo clube, é um mito para o Inter. Foi dele, aos 16 minutos do segundo tempo, o gol que abriu o título colorado.

Chivas added a cosmetic goal in the final moments to make it a respectable 3-2 final score.

Internacional has already advanced to the FIFA World Cup Finals due to the fact the Guadalajara is a member of CONCAF and therefore can’t win the South American Copa Libertadores title.

This is the second Copa title for Brasilian side Internacional.

Colorado won the title in 2006 when Internacional beat archrival Sao Paulo 4-3.

Colorado made it to the Copa Libertadores finals in 1980 but they lost to Uruguayan side Nacional 1-0.

Kudos to Internacional for winning the Copa Libertadores.
