Wednesday, São Paulo finally beat away Chivas one nil in the first leg of the Copa Libertadores semifinal.

Indeed, the Paulista club already played two times against Chivas at the time of the first round and lost each time.

But Ramalho's men won the most important match, away thanks to their scorer-goalkeeper Rogerio Ceni from penalty at the end of the game.

He scored his 62nd goal and joinded goalkeeper Chilavert (Paraguay) in the scorer-goalkeeper ranking.

Therefore, this victory has been tarnished by the Betis Sevilla managers request who demanded Ricardo Oliveira's return in Spain on August 12th at the end of his loan.

Even if the return leg will take place on August 2nd, the qualification for the final will play without Ricardo Oliveira if he joins Betis.

Thursday, at Asuncion, Internacional drew 0-0 with Libertad. The final decision will take place in the return leg next week at Beira Rio stadium in Porto Allegre.

Internacional as São Paulo kept all their chance to qualify for the final which might concern two Brazilian teams as last season between São Paulo and Atlético Paranaense.
