Spain :Atletico Madrid's fading hopes of winning the LaLiga title suffered a potentially grievous blow on Saturday as they were held to a goalless draw by relegation-threatened Alaves at the Mendizorrotza Stadium dominated possession but lacked the invention and urgency to pierce an organised Alaves rearguard Diego Simeone's side remained third in the standings with 67 points nine behind leaders Barcelona who travel to Real Valladolid later on Saturday The first half was a cagey affair without a single shot on target the most notable moment coming when Atletico forward Julian Alvarez was dismissed for planting a high boot on Facundo Garces TV replays showed the challenge was not as bad as it initially appeared and the red card was changed to a yellow after VAR asked the referee to consult the pitchside monitor Antoine Griezmann made his first start in three league games but the Frenchman was unable to help Atletico find a route to goal as the visitors failed to record a shot in the opening 45 minutes Alaves had a chance early in the second half but Jon Guridi failed to convert sending a header wide after being left unmarked in Atletico's penalty area Simeone brought on attackers Alexander Sorloth and Samuel Lino and the substitutions sparked the contest into life with Lino recording Atletico's first shot on target in the 71st minute Alaves did the same at the other end as Kike Garcia's side-footed effort from close range was expertly kept out by Jan Oblak Alaves keeper Antonio Sivera was kept very busy in the closing stages as Atletico pushed forward but the visitors were unable to find a winner three points clear of the relegation places "It's a good point against a great opponent," Alaves defender Garces said this helps us to gain confidence and to add to our tally We have to keep pushing and make the stadium a fortress for the last two games here."

Contact us have been mathematically eliminated from the title hunt Atletico Madrid on Saturday dropped points — yet again — to a relegation-threatened side this is probably the biggest takeaway from the afternoon game at Mendizorrotza where Atlético habitually have struggled this decade Diego Simeone’s side are meandering toward the end of the 2024/25 season and Let’s dive in to the key takeaways from this one A season which once held so much promise and potential is ending in heartbreak. The Colchoneros are in no man’s land — unlikely to move up from third, and yet just two points away from a 13th successive Champions League qualification with four rounds to play There can be no other conclusion after watching Atlético and its one-time standard-bearer Antoine Griezmann wander through the muck at Mendizorrotza Good enough for a start on Saturday after assisting a goal against Rayo Vallecano last time out Griezmann lasted about an hour before being taken off but he may as well have had the day off though The Frenchman did not register a single shot two crosses and a corner just about all he managed to create But same could have been said for just about any of the players who started the game; it is rather disappointing that Atlético did not manage even a single shot in the opening 45 minutes They managed to muster up nine in the second half the substitutes racking up nearly all of those though they never really troubled Antonio Sivera in goal the most eventful moment of the game came in the 41st minute when Julián Alvarez initially saw red for a challenge on Facundo Garcés The following VAR check and the subsequent overturned decision brought about the only real talking point over 90 minutes of football - THE RED CARD HAS BEEN TURNED AROUND FOR A YELLOW!NO RED CARD FOR ALVAREZ! pic.twitter.com/NQ0b5TYdnp With this result, Atlético have now dropped 11 points against the bottom five in La Liga this season. This in itself has been a major reason for their undoing; that additional 11-point haul would leave the Rojiblancos just a point adrift of leaders FC Barcelona Atleti’s tendency to drop points so cheaply — particularly away from home — continues to prove worrisome in the face of another important summer in the club’s offices. If they are to truly mount a title charge and match the might of Barcelona and Real Madrid it is simply inexcusable to pass up on these opportunities Atlético did go on a historic 15-match winning run earlier this season so for them to still fall well short of the title indicates just how small the margin for error is It might even be excusable if this was a one-off occurrence in a pressure-filled campaign but the fact that this trend has emerged over the last few seasons is yet another cause for concern It is not the first time Simeone’s side have looked toothless against clubs fighting against relegation from more modern defenders to final third creativity se ha quedado sin opciones matemáticas de ganar la Liga a falta de cuatro jornadas.Primera vez en la historia de la Primera española que el campeón de invierno se queda sin opciones de ganar la Liga a falta de cuatro jornadas Cholo Simeone’s side were prolific goal-scorers Griezmann and Julián Alvarez were world-class and sharp finishing to fire Atlético to the top of the table the same players look tired and mentally checked out It might be easy to forget that last summer was only the first step towards Atleti’s “big rebuild.” For the Rojiblancos to have pushed for trophies on all three fronts this year with a left side made up of Javi Galán and the out-of-form duo of Samuel Lino and Rodrigo Riquelme is a major over-performance Gallagher was the only player brought in last summer and even he did not expect to play down the left as much as he has Addressing that flank is probably the most crucial part of the window ahead even more than bolstering the midfield and defense or finding yet another attacker to add to the mix Informa @RuizAntonito ❌ El @Atleti no va a fichar para el Mundial de Clubes Baena y

seasons but he too would need some creative support alongside him Pablo Barrios has shown signs of emerging as Koke’s long-term replacement over the last couple of months but there are still question marks over his consistency but both lack youthful backups in the squad Another key transfer window awaits both to future-proof and pursue titles in the present While this season disappointingly

you have to win no matter what Just because they’re at the bottom doesn’t mean you’re going to win there were three or four important situations but the goalkeeper was very good and we even had a

Both he and his early disciples, Domingo de SotoMelchor Cano will form a pleiad of teachers who will influence all the universities of Europe and America bringing a single spirit and a new way of doing theology: that of the School of Salamanca Among other works that are being published, I would like to mention the one we have recently published with León Gómez Rivas, professor at the Universidad Europea en Sekotia Editionswhere its origin and development can be found in detail was the origin of a true school of theologians theological and moral challenges of the time caused by the irruption of Protestantism with its various currents colonization and evangelization of America and the economic and social consequences of the first globalization It is interesting to dwell a little on the significance of the School of Salamanca since it is commonplace to attribute to them the foundation of international law and to have opposed the titles wielded by Charles V for his presence in America It is a theological and juridical school because they based all their arguments lessons and opinions on the concept of the dignity of the human person Not only with the capacity to make moral decisions but truly as children of God and endowed with juridical and theological personality both those who freely adhered to the Christian faith and those who did not The consequences are immense: the freedom and responsibility to face the economy and globalize it the elimination of economic obstacles and fears to commercial activity the effort to reduce the fiscal burdens of kings and municipal corporations Perhaps the reading of this book will serve to understand more deeply the characteristics of Christian humanism so that we can affirm that Vitoria's spirit has remained latent until now Subscribe to Omnes magazine and enjoy exclusive content for subscribers Vitoria was known among his students at Salamanca for his direct, simple, and clear style, in contrast to the convoluted Scholastic method that predominated in university teaching at the time. It was bitterly cold, but the sun was shining, and the campus buzzed with anticipation. From his chair, the master began to deliver the brilliant lecture that would alter the course of the history of law. Following a rationalist, logical and scientific approach, characteristic of the Scholastic style, Vitoria addressed the university faculty with rigorous clarity, in an enormously pedagogical and accessible tone. He chose a topic of pressing relevance: the rights of indigenous peoples to the lands of America. At this point, the classroom was in complete silence, trying to absorb ideas that were new to the world. After examining and refuting the titles that claimed to justify this and other conquests, he established a series of fundamental principles on justice, freedom and equality. The conclusion was unequivocal: all empires are illicit and unjust in light of the law of nations. With a single statement, Vitoria rejected the legitimacy of the Castilian empire from his chair in Salamanca, at the height of imperial power. "The Indian aborigines are not barred from the exercise of true dominion," he assured, which means that no nation has the right to expand its dominion over other nations through force or conquest. The sun was high when Vitoria finished his lecture. Such words had never been heard in the universities of the old continent. That day, Salamanca became the center of the world. Vitoria let students and professors draw their own conclusions about solidarity among peoples and an international community where nations had mutual obligations and duties. The students carried their elderly master back on his chair to the Convent of San Esteban and left him seated in the cloister, discussing these and many other ideas. Vitoria died a few years later and did not leave his lectures in writing. Once again, it was his students who, using the notes they had taken in his classes, edited and published them in two volumes in 1557 to preserve that legacy and ensure that his thought continued to influence contemporary theology, philosophy, and law. Nearly five centuries have passed since that friar declared that there had been no discovery and that the Native Americans were the sole and true owners of America. And yet, we still celebrate Columbus Day, which endorses the doctrine of discovery and its inherent theses. The professor deserved better students.

Clariana Vitoria Ramos de Oliveira is an assistant professor in the School of Nursing. Standing in the Lied Library, the former ballet instructor says her mother always encouraged her to pursue her education and states that a library, "for me, it's a place that is liberating and creates new opportunities." (Becca Schwartz/UNLV) “I found my place on the map,” Clariana Vitoria Ramos de Oliveira said when she spent nearly two weeks working with families in a rural county in Tanzania.  Ramos was a postdoctoral researcher at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health when she and a group of researchers visited Africa an initiative that focused on educating and supporting parents to enhance child development. The experience overturned one assumption she had about nursing for vulnerable populations. Ramos graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing and a master’s in epidemiology from the Federal University of Rio Grande in Brazil. She earned her doctoral degree at the University of São Paulo with a scholarship to study for one year as a visiting graduate student at Harvard University. Her research examines maternal mental health and its impact on child development, particularly with vulnerable families.  I had this dream to travel the world, and people mentioned exchange programs to study abroad in a different country. I started looking for Ph.D. programs in England and volunteer opportunities. I found a program with an opportunity to volunteer on a project to develop a hospital in the Middle East. They needed a nurse to build the hospital, which was meant to support refugee moms and children in need. I thought, “Sign me in!” It was wonderful because I felt like I really found my place on the map. I didn't have the opportunity to go to the Middle East and develop the hospital, but at the same time, I had the opportunity to find other places to help people in different countries. It was an incredible experience. We worked alongside community health workers, helping educate families about parenting and child development to better support parents. In Tanzania, the people were incredibly warm, gentle, and friendly. They were in a very rural area and it took about four to six hours to get there, but so many moms came all the way to have us check on their babies. But, we imagine that we are going there to help because they are exposed to so many vulnerabilities, lack resources, and are doing the best with what they have. For me, it was the opposite. They helped me to see the other side of parenthood and how vulnerability can create community as well. They didn't have much, but they were sharing a lot and supporting each other.  It changed my life. When I came back, I already wanted to go back and stay there.  I grew up in Brazil, raised by a single mom who was a teacher. She often told me that the one thing she could give me and leave for me was an education. From a young age, she encouraged me to dedicate my time to my studies and think about going to university. She was always there to support me.  When I was about 7 or 8 years old, my grandfather had cancer. We would have nurses in our house, and I would see them doing some procedures on my grandfather. So, I decided, OK, I want to go to nursing school. I want to work as a nurse.  Dance. I may not look like a ballerina anymore, but I once taught ballet to children as a volunteer in Brazil. I love libraries, and I love our library here. I also love Xan Goodman, our Health Sciences librarian. The library was the second place I visited when I first came to UNLV. It’s an inspiring place. Books, reading, and studying – I would say that saved my life. My mom encouraged me to study and read. So for me, it's a place that is liberating and creates new opportunities. It's a way to find your freedom and your passion. I would say, believe in yourself. Sometimes when you're young, you start thinking and look at your neighbor's progress and think that people are so far away from you, and you don't concentrate on your own skills. And so, I would say to the young Clariana, believe in yourself. My mom believed in me a lot, but sometimes I didn't and I would doubt my skills and in myself. Look for opportunities. The opportunities are there, but you need to find them. My mentor told me something that stuck, “Out of out of sight, out of mind.” If you show up, if you speak up, people will remember you. We are observing all the time as faculty, so be present.

This work reports the data obtained by the multidisciplinary cruise CORE-VTRCC surveying on the region around the Vitória-Trindade Ridge (VTR) aboard the vessel NHo Cruzeiro do Sul (October 18th to November 6th The main objectives of the VTRCC Cruise were (1) to assess the role of the VTR as an oceanographic barrier for bottom currents along the Brazilian margin; and (2) to characterize the morphology of the volcanic seamounts and its relationships with the carbonate sediments that cover it high-resolution multichannel seismic survey and seafloor sampling along the VTR and along the Columbia Deepwater Channel The raw dataset was processed for quality control and organized for public access additional geophysical processing occurred to improve data quality Seafloor samples are characterized based on the concentration of its biofacies the sediment grain-sizes and the morphology of rhodoliths sampled The dataset reveals comprehensively the geological and oceanographic heterogeneity of the region around the VTR Data acquired during the CORE-VTRCC Cruise (a) Multibeam bathymetry survey occurred throughout the vessel track with the exception of shallow depths (<100 m) Seafloor samples were acquired atop the Columbia Seamount (V01 and V02) atop the Davis Bank (V05 and V06) and atop the Jaseur Seamount (b) Sub-bottom and sound velocity profiles were also acquired throughout the cruise track but not at <100 m depths (c) Multichannel Sparker Seismic data was acquired along the Columbia Channel (L01-L03) along the VTR (L07-L15) and at the Rio de Janeiro continental slope (L17) (d) Marine magnetometry was acquired throughout the survey track when sea conditions were safe High resolution sub-bottom profiler data were acquired employing an SBP-120 from Kongsberg installed in the hull of the ship Survey geometry came from a SeaPath 330 positioning system with two GNSS antennas without differential positioning Acquisition occurred in the Kongsberg SIS software with the ellipsoid WGS-84 and a UTM projection with zone 25S The equipment was operated with one main channel which results in a maximum vertical resolution ~0.3 ms The data was logged in Topas raw format and converted to SEG-Y format The power of the SBP pulse and trigger interval varied along the survey depending on ocean conditions and seafloor depth Survey velocities ranged between 4–7 knots Sound velocities were then incorporated during the multibeam bathymetry acquisition directly into the SIS software Multibeam bathymetry preprocessing was performed on the software CARIS HIPS from Teledyne during the expedition A Patch Test calibration of the echosounder was done atop the Columbia Seamount on October 26th heading and the time delay were calibrated The corrected values from the Patch Test were then inserted into the processing procedure spike removal and surface equalization processing were performed with the software EIVA NaviModel Producer after the expedition The SeaSPY magnetometer from Marine Magnetics was used to acquire the magnetic field data The sensor (torpedo) was towed 250 m behind the vessel and 300 m from the vessel’s GPS The SeaSPY magnetometer is a Proton Precession (Overhauser) sensor of absolute accuracy and the resolution of the system is 0.1 nT and 0.001 nT The data was acquired in a 10 Hz frequency from the continental slope to the furthest point from the continent The frequency resulted in measurements for every meter traveled with the sensor about 30 to 35 m below the sea level The survey also occurred in parallel to the seismic survey the data had low-quality/high-noise measurements removed and was filtered using a non-linear filter of 10 fiducials to eliminate spikes from the data The quality approved field was reduced using the International Geomagnetic Reference Field (IGRF) to correct long-wavelength effects non-related to crustal features The resulting Total Magnetic Field was finally filtered using a first-order polynomial filter to highlight medium- to short-wavelength anomalies related to the VTR producing the Residual Magnetic Field surveyed by the cruise Microscopic photographs were taken with a Zeiss Stemi DV4 stereomicroscope at zoom scale of 8x and a total diameter of 26 mm Grains were then classified in carbonate debris and its abundance was quantified based on 300 random point counts per sample method (Subbottom Profiler – SBP) and line number Bin sizes were then determined to optimize the fold number in the stacked section noise modeling) may be performed to further improve data results technical limitations of using a short streamer result in a difficulty of properly imaging surfaces/areas with a high gradient particularly along the continental slope and seamounts where the seismic traces are often distorted and do not represent the regional stratigraphy The initial and final masses were measured and when those values had a >10% difference Submesoscale Phenomena Due to

Playing at Barradão, Filipe Luís's team defeated Carpini's Vitória 2-1 this Sunday (6). There was a toe-poke goal and a bizarre expulsion during a goal celebration. Flamengo took control of the game from the start. They had two great chances in less than ten minutes - thanks to Gerson and Cebolinha. Meanwhile, Vitória, completely dominated, couldn't pose any threat when they had possession. Flamengo, who sought so much in the first half, relied on Arrascaeta's quality to score. After dispossessing Janderson, he beat Arcanjo with a toe-poke finish (62'). In the best "style" of Ronaldo or Romário. The lead made the visiting team adopt a less intense posture. And Vitória took advantage. With a deflection off Gerson, Wellington Rato equalized (77'). The sequence saw Carpini's expulsion, who celebrated his number 10's goal by kicking one of the balls on the sidelines. And saw red. Flamengo just needed to accelerate again to justify their better performance. And the quality of their squad. A cross from Luiz Araújo, an attempted clearance by Lucas Halter, and a goal from the decisive Bruno Henrique (87'). Flamengo reached four points. And closes the G-6. Meanwhile, Vitória remains with zero points. And in the Z-4. They will play again in the BR-2025 on Sunday (13). Leão will visit Atlético at Arena MRV. While Fla will face Grêmio at the Arena. But both will have commitments in Conmebol tournaments before that. On Wednesday (9), Filipe Luís's team will host Central Córdoba for the second round of Group C in the Libertadores. And on Thursday (10), Carpini's team will face Defensa y Justicia on Argentine soil.

Pereira’s comments underline the urgency of this need, particularly with Mario Lemina reportedly set to depart for Saudi Arabia in the coming weeks. “It’s vital we reinforce in midfield,” Pereira said. “We’ve identified players who can bring quality and balance to the team.” Manu Silva appears to be a prime candidate for this role. Known as ‘Manu,’ the 22-year-old has featured prominently for Vitoria SC, making 28 appearances across all competitions this season, including in the UEFA Europa Conference League. Since joining Vitoria from Feirense in 2023, Silva has racked up 50 appearances, showcasing his durability and consistency. Picture:IMAGOThe Potential £10 Million DealReports suggest that Wolves are prepared to table a £10 million bid for Silva. Such a fee represents a significant investment but aligns with the club’s long-term strategy of recruiting young, talented players capable of adapting to the rigours of Premier League football. Pereira’s approach seems clear: replace the outgoing Lemina with a younger, more dynamic option. Silva’s ability to read the game, break up opposition play, and distribute effectively could make him an ideal fit for Wolves’ midfield. His experience in Portugal’s top flight, coupled with his exposure to European competition, suggests he could adapt quickly to English football. Silva’s style of play revolves around defensive solidity and composure on the ball. He’s been praised for his tackling ability and positional awareness, traits that Wolves desperately need in the absence of a seasoned defensive midfielder. His former manager at Feirense described him as “a player who never stops learning and improving. He’s mature beyond his years.” This maturity is evident in Silva’s performances, where he often dictates the tempo from deep midfield positions. His statistics this season highlight his influence, with a high pass completion rate and several key interceptions per match. For Wolves, who have struggled at times to control the midfield, Silva’s arrival could be transformative. Picture:IMAGOChallenges to the MoveDespite the positives, there are potential challenges to the deal. Negotiating with Vitoria SC may prove complex, particularly if other clubs express interest in Silva. Furthermore, adapting to the Premier League’s physicality and pace can be daunting for players transitioning from the Portuguese league. However, Wolves’ record of integrating Portuguese players under the influence of their strong ties to the country could work in Silva’s favour. With Pereira at the helm, the club appears well-positioned to make the most of this connection. The timing of this potential transfer is crucial. Wolves are currently navigating a congested fixture schedule, and securing Silva early in the window could provide much-needed reinforcements. His arrival would not only address immediate needs but also align with the club’s broader strategy of developing players with resale value. As Wolves fans await further developments, it’s clear that the club’s ambitions extend beyond short-term fixes. Manu Silva’s potential signing represents a forward-thinking approach aimed at laying a foundation for sustained success. From a Wolves supporter’s perspective, the potential acquisition of Manu Silva offers a mix of excitement and cautious optimism. With Mario Lemina’s departure seemingly imminent, the need for a robust defensive midfielder is glaringly obvious. Silva’s age, skill set, and European experience tick all the right boxes, making him an enticing prospect. However, there’s always a risk when signing players from outside the Premier League. Adapting to the league’s intensity has tripped up many promising talents in the past. Wolves fans may wonder if Silva can immediately impact or if he will require a bedding-in period. “We need someone who can hit the ground running,” one supporter remarked on social media, capturing the sentiment of many. On the flip side, Wolves’ strong connections to Portuguese football offer reassurance. Pereira’s familiarity with the league and Silva’s potential fit within the squad provide hope that this could be a seamless transition. Additionally, the reported £10 million fee appears reasonable in today’s inflated market, especially for a player with Silva’s ceiling. While the jury remains out on whether this deal will materialise, Wolves supporters can take heart in the club’s proactive approach. Silva’s arrival could signal a new chapter, one where the team builds for the future while addressing immediate needs. For now, all eyes remain on Molineux and Vitoria SC, as fans wait to see if this intriguing transfer rumour becomes a reality.

at Terracciano’s net but couldn’t quite get any of them to hit the back of the net Fiorentina left it late to find their equaliser They launcehsd a second phase of an attack after a corner which resulted in Dodo firing a low ball across the face of Bruno Valera’s goal but Mandragora was alert at the back post to turn it in for 1-1 There was a scramble in the area in the final seconds of penalty area as Kean tried to turn in a winner but the referee eventually blew after a series of fould in the box The result of tonight’s game sends both teams down one position in the Conference League standings while Fiorentina claim fourth position with a tally of 13 As it proved, the home faithful were quickly stunned into silence when Cedric Bakambu slotted the ball through Bruno Varela’s legs after he had rolled the challenge of Toni Borevkovic Betis would have been far from comfortable despite netting an early goal especially after they gave up the lead on two occasions in last week’s 2-2 draw in Spain With that in mind, the travelling faithful would have breathed a sigh of relief when Bakambu doubled the advantage in the 20th minute, heading home from Aitor Ruibal’s clipped pass to round off a slick attacking move Vitoria made a purposeful start to the second period forcing Betis to weather a period of pressure at the Estadio D However, just as the hosts were building up a head of steam, the visitors launched an incisive counter-attack to put the tie to bed courtesy of Antony’s fourth goal since joining the club in January The Manchester United loanee latched onto Isco’s intelligent through ball before driving into the box to drill the ball past Varela at the near post Antony then helped apply the finishing touches to a memorable away trip, bursting away from Mikel Villanueva before teeing up Isco for a simple finish to pile the misery on Vitoria in their first home defeat since September Manuel Pellegrini’s charges will move on to a quarter-final clash

League match against Vitoria SC on Thursday evening as the third-place Viola take on the second-highest ranked team in the competition You can follow the action as it unfolds on the Football Italia

and Robin Gosens are replaced by Lucas Martinez Quarta and Fabiano Parisi There is a first start in the Conference League for Albert Gudmundsson who is expected to start up front in the absence of

careful attention as they line-up with two players by the name Joao Mendes and three midfielders with the surname Silva Vitória de Guimarães’ UEFA Conference League campaign came to a close in the round of 16 after a 4-0 defeat against Real Betis at Estádio Dom Afonso Henriques The Spanish side took the lead in the 5th minute when defensive errors allowed Cédric Bakambu to surge into the box and beat Bruno Varela The 33-year-old doubled the advantage in the 20th minute when he headed Aitor Ruibal’s deflected cross into the net Vitória fashioned their first chance in the 40th minute and showed some promise after the break but the tie was over in the 58th minute when Isco released Antony who found the bottom corner Antony repaid the favour with ten minutes remaining presenting Isco with a golden opportunity that he accepted with ease It was a disappointing result for the Conquerors who earned a 2-2 draw in the first leg but they were ultimately outclassed on and off the pitch and can have no complaints Real Betis got off to a fast start in Guimarães and took the lead in the 5th minute Mikel Villanueva came out of the defensive line and Toni Borevković mistimed an interception Cédric Bakambu racing into the box and slotting the ball through Bruno Varela’s legs The Spanish side sustained their supremacy and doubled the lead in the 20th minute collected a pass from Isco and rolled the ball through to Aitor Ruibal his deflected cross sitting up perfectly for Bakambu who headed the ball into the net Vitória created their first shot in the 40th minute when Fran Vieites slapped João Mendes’ effort away from goal Nélson Oliveira firing the follow up well wide Luís Freire made two substitutions at half-time overhauling his right edge with Miguel Maga and Telmo Arcanjo replacing Hevertton Santos and Úmaro Embaló The switches almost paid off with Guimarães enjoying their best spell of the game Maga firing over the bar and seeing another effort deflected wide by Marc Bartra The positivity was short lived with the Spanish side making it 3-0 in the 58th minute Isco released Antony who broke clear and took advantage of a statuesque Borevković the Brazilian measuring a low drive into the bottom corner Arcanjo and Nuno Santos sent efforts over the bar but Guimarães were caught on the break in the 80th minute when the rout was completed the winger speeding past Villanueva and returning the favour for Isco who made no mistake Vitória de Guimarães cruised through the Conference League qualifiers and went unbeaten in six group matches earning a 1-1 draw in their toughest game against Fiorentina They drew the short straw with Real Betis, one of the strongest teams left in the competition, but confidence was high in Portugal after the Conquerors earned a credible 2-2 draw in the first leg at Estadio Benito Villamarín That confidence was shattered after 20 minutes in Guimarães and despite a brief spell of pressure after the break there was only one team advancing to the quarter-finals Manuel Pellegrini has been around the block a few more times than Luís Freire and it showed the 71-year-old learning from the match in Sevilla and making the necessary adjustments to shut down Guimarães’ avenues towards goal Isco was the class player on paper and so it proved on the pitch the playmaker simply too smart and too good Mikel Villanueva and Toni Borevković may have had their worst performances of the season In the end it was a disappointing evening for the Guimarães faithful who filled Estádio Dom Afonso Henriques but were unable to see their side reach a second European quarter-final Once the dust settles the result will be easier to digest and pride will be the primary emotion that persists By Matthew
