National of Uruguay will pursue this Wednesday on the last date of Group F of the Copa Libertadores to work a miracle to be able to advance to the South American, in front of a national athletic that arrives in Montevideo to seal the first place.
The 'tricolor' is last with just four points (-4), while Colombians lead with nine (+2). In the middle, international accumulates eight units (+3) and Bahía Seven (-1).
According to this, the Uruguayans will jump to the playing field of the Great Central Park with one eye set there and another at the stadium where Brazilians will see the faces at the same time.
Mathematics for Nacional is clear: to go to the South American he must win and wait for Bahia to lose as a visitor. In addition, you must overcome it in the goals.
It is also clear for Colombians: a triumph guarantees them first place regardless of what happens in other scenarios.
Without the injured Sebastián Coates and Jeremía Recoba, it is a fact that the young Paolo Calione will remain in the last line of the local team, while the Venezuelan Romulo Otero is likely to take a place in the center of the field.
For its part, Nicolás López will lead the attack of a team that was released in the intermediate tournament with a 1-0 victory against Progreso and assaulted the first place of the accumulated annual table.
On the other hand, Atlético Nacional will also face the duel with important casualties: Matheus Uribe and Edwin Cardona are injured and did not travel to Montevideo, where the two -time champion of the Libertadores arrived this Monday.
Elkin Rivero and Dairon Asprilla could take their places in an eleven that will have figures such as goalkeeper David Ospina, Central William Tesillo and scorer Kevin Viveros.
