Foluwashola Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Talk that Nacional have asked for the Brazilians to be given the title. Nice gesture. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
themanupstairs Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Maybe some big players will sign for them for one match to play the "final", and have it be a charity event. I could see the likes of Neymar, Messi and Ronaldo going for that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

triggs Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 This is the Chapecoense players celebrating reaching the Copa Sudamericana final just 5 days ago. :( In one way it's good that they got to have a moment like that in their careers before they passed away.

Flip Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 A little regarding the club: Chapecoense was in Serie D (the League 2 equivalent) in 2009. In 5 years they climbed to the Serie A and then in two years they established themselves as a Serie A team and made the Copa Sudamericana finals (Europa League equivalent) while being 9th in the Serie A in thier third season. They've ascended through the Brazilian league system in no time and were just two days away from making something so remarkable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackandWhite Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Nice to see it unite a lot of clubs in Brazil in respecting the club after a nightmare come through. Devastated for all involved. Hope the club can come back and continue building their legacy and go on to achieve many great things still in the name of those that have been lost. It would be nice to see them awarded their first continental trophy in honour of the players and hopefully they receive enough support in rebuilding their club. Unfortunately for the families and friends of the deceased there is damage in their lives that cannot be rebuilt. My thoughts and sympathy is with them.

Fenham Mag Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Other teams in Serie A are offering to loan players to Chapecoense for free so they can continue in the top league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaydnNUFC Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 The team who they were meant to be playing in the final have asked the governing body to award them the trophy. Awful stuff, just awful Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bimpy474 Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Other teams in Serie A are offering to loan players to Chapecoense for free so they can continue in the top league. I think when the Munich disaster happened the FA ruled that Man Utd couldn't be relegated for 3 seasons, Froggy might know the details more. But something along those lines along with the offer of free loan players would be a great thing to do for them. Not sure they'll really be thinking of any of that right now though.

toontownman Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 RIP. What a horrific situation, further highlighted by the fact there is a sports team of which 19 of 22 have perished. Thoughts go out to the families of the dead and prayers to the survivors that have to also live through this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackandWhite Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Fair play to Atletico Nacional. Always respected them for their domestic achievements and of course they've not been too bad on the contenential scene either winning the Copa libertores last year. This could have been their first sudamerica trophy and second contential trophy in a row but they're unselfishly giving it up to honour the lost. Much respect.
