Copa Sudamericana Brings President Bachelet to Estadio Nacional

colocolo.gifChilean Presidenta Michelle Bachelet didn’t go to Augusto Pinochet‘s funeral but yesterday she did witness another loss in Santiago’s Estadio Nacional, where many were detained after the 1973 military coup. Mexico’s oldest soccer clube, Pachuca came from behind to beat my favorite team, Chile’s Colo Colo 2-1 and win the Copa Sudamericana.

Pachuca, Mexico’s oldest club, silenced a 60,000 crowd at the Estadio Nacional as they won the final 3-2 on aggregate to become the first Mexican team to win a South American club competition.

I think more Chilenos were torn up about Colo’s loss than the loss of Pinochet.
