Brazil's Atlético Mineiro qualify for the final of the Copa Libertadores tournament, FOCUS reported.

In a rematch from the semi-final stage of the competition, the Brazilians managed to draw 0:0 as guests of the Argentine giants River Plate.

Atlético won the first match at home with 3:0 and with a total result of the two matches 3:0 qualified for the final of the competition.

Despite their total superiority in the match, Marcelo Gallardo's men remained very far from a miracle. The main credit for this was the goalkeeper of the Brazilians, Everson, who was irresistible.

Veteran Maximiliano Mesa played a great game for River Plate, but that didn't help either.

This is how Atlético captured the Brazilian final in the Copa Libertadores.

In the other semi-final, Botafogo plays Uruguayan Peñarol. The second leg in Uruguay starts at 2:30 on October 31, Bulgarian time. In the first match, Batafogo won 5:0.
