Palmeiras faces unlikely comeback as only a miraculous ‘impossible turnaround’ would see them miss out on quarter-finals of Libertadores

With a four-goal advantage built up last week, Palmeiras need to suffer a comeback never seen before in the history of the Copa Libertadores to be eliminated by Universitario at Allianz Parque this Thursday. The Palmeiras team traveled to Lima, Peru, last Thursday and defeated Universitario 4-0, putting their qualification well on track even in the first leg game. The Palmeiras team is comfortably positioned to advance to the quarter-finals of the Libertadores.
