Representatives from all the Conmebol countries will meet, between June and July, in the round-trip matches of the round of 16 of the Copa Sudamericana.
This Friday, at the headquarters of the South American Football Confederation (Conmebol), in the Paraguayan city of Luque, the draw was held between the teams that qualified as the best in their group phase and the third in the Copa Libertadores.
Venezuela will be represented by Deportivo Táchira, Uruguay will be represented by Nacional, Colombia by Deportivo Cali, and Paraguay’s envoy is Olimpia, who, although they defeated Cerro Porteño 1-0, did not qualify for the next phase of the Libertadores.
The flag of Peru is carried by Melgar with his sixth classification to the tournament, that of Bolivia The Strongest and that of Ecuador Independiente del Valle, champion of the cup in 2019.
Brazil is the country with the largest number of representatives in the competition with Santos, Sao Paulo, Internacional, Ceará, who arrived with a perfect score, and Atlético Goianiense, who qualified as the leader of their group.
