The Round of 16 of the Copa Libertadores concluded with three Thursday contests.
At Rio de Janeiro:
Leandro Euzebio (15') and Fred (45') provided the scoring as Fluminense came from behind to defeat visiting Internacional 2-1 in game two and won their two-match all-Brazilian series four points to one.
At Santos, Brazil:
Elano (6', 49'), Neymar (PK-21', 36'), and Paulo Ganso (27', 52') each scored twice as Santos more than recovered from their game-one road setback by ripping visiting Club Bolivar apart 8-0 in game two and with each team having earned three points in the two-game series, won on goal differential (+7 to -7 for the Bolivian club).
At Santiago, Chile:
Junior Fernandes (20', 27') and Angelo Henriquez (70', 73') each scored twice as Universidad de Chile blasted visiting Deportivo Quito 6-0 in game two and won the two-match series based on better goal differential (+3 to the Ecuadorian club's -3) as both clubs registered three points each.
The quarterfinal round begins next week. Here are the match-ups, with the hosts of the opening contest of each two-game series listed first:
