CONMEBOL Libertadores News

Argentine club Boca Juniors fired coach Fernando Gago on Tuesday after losing to crosstown rival River Plate over the weekend.

Palmeiras' Estêvão had an 18th birthday to remember, netting the club's second goal in a 3-2 Copa Libertadores win over Bolivar before dropping to the turf, vomiting and leaving the field on a stretcher as the high altitude of La Paz took its toll.

Segundo Castillo has been adding some serious drip to the touchline during Barcelona de Guayaquil's games by sporting an array of colored tuxedos.

Two fans died on Thursday before the start of a Copa Libertadores match between Colo Colo and Fortaleza near Santiago's estadio Monumental.

CONMEBOL announced on Thursday that Ronaldo Nazario will lead a task force to combat racism and violence in South American soccer.
