Botafogo: 1 - River Plate: 0 - Copa Sudamericana 2007

River were not able to get over the "away-from-home-phobia" tonight vs. Botafogo. Unfortunately, the result ended 1-0 in favor of the Brazilian side, though River deserved to atleast tie it in the second half.

The first half was all Botafogo. The offensive 4-3-3 formation by Passarella proved to be useless, with River not having a single clear chance in the first 45 minutes.
