Philippe Coutinho shares his hopes to return to Brazil's national team as he comes back to his boyhood club Vasco da Gama.

Boca Juniors have been ordered by the South American Football Confederation to partially close a section of their stadium for Tuesday's Copa Sudamericana game against Sportivo Trinidense following racist behaviour from some sections of their supporters.

LDU lifted the Copa Sudamericana on Saturday, adding further evidence that Ecuador are the biggest challengers to the Brazilian domination of club football in South America.
