In Paraguay, Santos are drawing 0-0 with Recoleta in the fourth round of the Conmebol Sudamericana group stage.
The score, however, could have changed in the first half if Gabigol had “lived up to” his nickname.

In the 20th minute of the opening half, the Peixe No. 9 missed an open goal, unmarked and inside the six-yard box, sending Rollheiser’s pass wide.
And the even more “cruel” detail is that Neymar was right behind him, in position to send the ball into the back of the Paraguayan net.
With the partial result, Santos remain on three points and still at the bottom of Group D.
In the Sudamericana, only the group leader advances directly to the round of 16.
The team that finishes second has to play a playoff against a side eliminated from the Libertadores.
