Atletico Nacional request Chapecoense be declared champions after Colombia plane crash


75 killed as Brazilian soccer team’s plane crashes near Medellin

This has prompted Nacional to ask the governing body CONMEBOL to award the trophy to the Brazilian club as a mark of respect.


Atletico Nacional ask Conmebol to give the title of Copa Sudamericana be given to the Chapecoense as an honorary award for this great loss, and in posthumous homage to the victims of the fatal accident that impute our sport. For our part, and forever, Chapecoense are champions of the 2016 Copa Sudamericana.
