With the results this Thursday (21) in Group B of the South American Championship, Atlético-MG no longer has any chance of being second in the group, in other words, there is no chance of playing in the competition's playoffs, as happened in 2025.


Atlético-MG beat Cienciano-PER 2-0, while Puerto Cabello-VEN and Juventud-URU drew 1-1. In the last round, either Galo will be the leader of the group, advancing straight to the round of 16, or they will finish third, thus being eliminated from the South American Championship.


This is because, if Galo beats Puerto Cabello in the final round, regardless of the score, they will be classified as group leader.

If they draw or lose, Eduardo Domínguez's men will certainly be behind Puerto Cabello himself and Cienciano or Juventud, who face each other in the last round, thus finishing in third place.


Understand the scenario
With Atlético-MG's victory and the draw between Puerto Cabello and Juventud this Thursday, there is a three-way draw between Galo, the Venezuelans and the Peruvians.


As a result, according to Conmebol's criteria, the duel against Juventud, which has six points, is excluded from the count and only clashes between the three tied teams are valid.

In this case, Puerto Cabello has the advantage, with six points and +2 balance, Cienciano appears in second, with six points and -2 balance, and Galo in third, with just three points won against their rivals.


In other words, if the two games are tied in the last round, the group will continue as it is, with Puerto Cabello in first, Cienciano in second, Atlético-MG in third and Juventud in fourth.


In this scenario of Atlético-MG not winning, any result in the other game in the group will leave Galo in third place, that is, eliminated.
