They lost Luis Castro (who managed them in the first half of the season) to Al Nassr, Bruno Lage came in and they started to implode afterwards, he has been sacked already, but the matches they lost with him were the most crucial ones.

Congrats to Bodø, it has been nice to see their improvement in recent years. I can definitely see them reaching the UCL Group Stage in the near future.
They also have the chance to do the Double, as they’re also in the Norwegian Cup final, were they’ll play against Molde. I’m not sure if the Mesterfinalen (Supercup) has been definitely scrapped, the 2019 edition was cancelled due to extreme weather.
Some people keep saying that CONMEBOL and CONCACAF should merge and play the qualifiers and continental competitions together, but it’s most likely an unified confederation would follow the same zonal model used by the AFC, thus rendering an unified confederation basically useless.
If we actually manage to have a proper team next year, I can definitely see Olimpia playing against Boca at some stage of the cup. We missed qualification to the Libertadores for the first time in 8 years, the team was stuck with poor form in most matches after going out of this years’ Copa.
