Football team offers to concede to opponents
Nov 30, 2016
Colombian football team Atletico Nacional have offered to concede the final of the Copa Sudamericana, to ensure their opponents, Chapecoense, are declared the champions.
This, after a plane crash killed members of the Brazilian club, that were to play the biggest match in their history.
Brazilian first division football teams have offered to lend players to Chapecoense free of charge, and urged the league to protect the club from relegation for the next 3 years.
