The first leg of the quarter-finals started on August 11, Beijing time, until the end of August 13, the result was very strange, the 4 teams playing at home did not have a single victory, according to OPTA statistics, this is the third time in the past 30 years that this has happened, the previous two times were in 1994 and 2013, and the previous two times, the results of the second leg were the same, that is, the 4 teams that returned to the home court joined hands to qualify, I don't know if there will be exceptions this time.
Fluminense vs Barcelona
The first game played was the Bajia derby, São Paulo sat at the Moronby Stadium, against Palmeiras, the two teams played half a pound, until the second half by São Paulo to break the deadlock, the left side of the attack caused chaos in the opponent's penalty area, 3 consecutive shots were blocked, blocked or saved, midfielder Luan (Luan) left foot shot to break the goal, Luan is a 22-year-old defender, is sao paulo's own youth training player. 20 minutes later, Palmeiras also tied the score by his own academy, and substitute 21-year-old midfielder Patrick de Paula took a left-footed free-kick straight into the bottom left corner of the goal, and the two sides eventually drew 1-1.

The two finalists of the Baliga were evenly matched, while the defending champions of the Bajia team who visited Paraguay, Flamengo, won a big victory, sweeping paraguayan champions Assunson Olympia 4-1 away, the trident in front of the field was powerful, Uruguayan international Giorgian de Arrascaeta counterattacked to break the deadlock and created penalties, Gabriel Barbosa (Gabriel Barbosa) penalty shot plus wrapped up and pushed twice, Vitinho, who came on as a substitute in the final moments, locked in the score, while Bruno Henrique had two assists.

The goal I chose is Barbosa's second goal, which has led Inter to lead the Copa Libertadores alone with eight goals, and he has scored 20 goals in the Copa Libertadores in the last five seasons, leading among all players, followed by Miguel Borja (18 goals), Fred (15 goals), Cardoso (13 goals) and Bruno Enrique (13 goals). The penalty was his fourth penalty this season, with four of four free throws, and Flamengo was the team that won the most penalties in the Copa Libertadores this season.
The strongest opponent is Currently Leading the Bundesliga, Atlético Mineiro, who is visiting monumental stadium and facing A-League giants River Plate, resulting in a one-goal victory. The goal came in the 58th minute, it was a delicate team fit, Chilean international Eduardo Vargas received a direct pass from his teammate on the right, Hulk asked for the ball inside the box, Vargas picked out the pass, Hulk judged the situation, chose the header swing, helped the team captain, Argentina midfielder Nacho Fernández burst into the goal, it is worth mentioning that Nacho played for River Plate for 5 years, after scoring, Nacho was sent off for a serious foul in the 84th minute for a red card.

In the final game, Fluminense, who played at home, encountered stubborn resistance, and with Fred's goal in the 95th minute, he barely drew with Ecuador's Barcelona team. The two teams also fought hard, and in the 26th minute, Fruminense's 20-year-old left winger Gabriel Teixeira took advantage of the opposing goalkeeper's mistake to score a low shot into the empty goal, thus becoming the second youngest Copa Libertadores scorer in Fluminense's history, and the youngest of all Brazilian players to score in the Copa Libertadores knockout round. The youngster from Fluminense's own academy is worth paying attention to.
