All matches of the second round of the Copa Libertadores have been played

The second matchday of the Copa Libertadores group stage concluded with drama, disappointment, and a standout performance from Alan Patrick, as only four clubs managed to secure back-to-back wins: Universidad de Chile, Libertad, Palmeiras, and Vélez Sarsfield.

Racing Fall Flat in Silence

Racing Club, the reigning Supercopa Sudamericana champions, suffered a shock 2–1 home defeat to Colombian side Bucaramanga. The Argentine giants were forced to play behind closed doors due to fan misconduct—mirroring River Plate's similar punishment earlier this week. The lack of atmosphere seemed to sap energy from the hosts, who were second-best for most of the night.

São Paulo Let Two-Goal Lead Slip

It was a frustrating evening for São Paulo FC fans as their side squandered a 2–0 lead in a 2–2 draw against Alianza Lima. Both first-half goals came from Ferreirinha, but a series of ill-timed substitutions by coach Luis Zubeldía saw the Brazilian side lose control of the game, allowing the Peruvians to claw back a valuable point.

Alan Patrick Masterclass for Internacional

One man who stole the spotlight was Alan Patrick. The Internacional captain netted a hat-trick in a 3–0 demolition of Atlético Nacional, including two composed penalties and a clinical finish from a right-wing cross in the dying minutes. With that, the Porto Alegre-based club takes control of Group F.

Tragedy in Santiago Shadows the Football

The highly anticipated clash between Colo-Colo and Fortaleza was tragically abandoned following the deaths of two fans in a stampede outside the stadium. The horrific incident has cast a shadow over the tournament and triggered widespread calls for improved fan safety in South American football.

As the Copa Libertadores rolls into matchday three, only four clubs maintain perfect records—setting the tone for what is shaping up to be one of the most unpredictable group stages in years.
