Eduardo Domínguez is back in the Copa Sudamericana final. The Argentine coach has led Atlético to the 2026 final and will compete for the title again 11 years after reaching the final with Huracán in 2015.
In charge of Galo since February, Domínguez secured qualification despite losing to Montevideo City Torque at Estádio Centenário. The team had built a lead with a 3–0 win at Arena MRV, with goals from Reinier, Bernard and Thiago Borbas.
Atlético's road to the final included victories over Red Bull Bragantino in the round of 16 and Santos in the quarterfinals, before the clash with the Uruguayan side.
The continental final will take place on November 21 against Boca Juniors in Barranquilla. Domínguez will be seeking his first Copa Sudamericana title and the fifth continental title in Galo's history.
In addition to reaching the international final, Atlético remains in contention in the Copa do Brasil. The team will face Grêmio in the semifinals, with the second leg scheduled for Arena MRV.
