Atletico Nacional came through a penalty shootout to earn bronze over Club America in their third-place match for the Club World Cup.
A stalemate did not look in the prospect after the South American champions jumped to an early 2-0 lead. Miguel Samudio scored an own goal before Orlando Berrio teed up Alejandro Guerra for Atletico Nacional’s second.
But in the 36th minute, Michael Arroyo capitalized on a Miguel Samudio pass to pull the Mexicans within one.
In the second half, America coach Ricardo La Volpe brought on Oribe Peralta to try and force a leveler, and after a penalty was called for a tackle on Jose “Chepe” Guerrero, “Hermoso” stepped up to convert.
