Chapecoense opponents ask for title to be awarded to tragic club

“They came for a dream, they depart as legends.”

Copa Sudamericana finalists Atletico Nacional have requested that organisers CONMEBOL award the title to Chapecoense.

A chartered plane carrying the Chapecoense team and entourage crashed in Colombia last night while on its way to the finals of the regional tournament, killing 76 people.
