    The crowd in Morumbi that day was 30400 in a stadium that holds 60000 so the atmosphere was good but not great. Incidentally this was the season that Sao Paulo won the Copa Libertadores and then beat Liverpool in the World club Champions Final.
    Here are the 2 min highlights- how is your Portuguese?




    Now if we are talking atmosphere this is the game I was at in 1999. Copa Libertadores at Pacembeu Stadium in Sao Paulo, Corinthians v Cerro Porteno of Paraguay.
    19 year old Fernando Baiano scored 5 and went on to play in Spain- Celta Vigo and Malaga.
    The stadium only held 40000 so was heaving.
    I accidentally wore a green shirt similar to Palmeiras. Not smart, like wearing sky blue in the Stretford End.
