Without Colidio, Vasco seeks alternatives in attack to advance to the South American semifinals

Vasco faces Santa Fe-COL this Wednesday at São Januário, in the quarterfinals of the Copa Sul-Americana, needing a simple victory after a goalless draw in the first leg in Bogotá. The main absence is Facundo Colidio, author of the winning goal against Grêmio and the starting center-forward, who cannot play in the tournament because he was registered by River Plate-ARG in the knockout stage. Coach Pedro Emanuel will have more alternatives on the bench after a busy transfer window to maintain the playing style or change the formation as needed.
