DEFENSOR SPORTING vs. ATLETICO NACIONAL Live Stream FREE Online: 2014 Copa Libertadores Quarterfinal, Live Coverage From Montevideo, Projected Lineups and TACTICAL PREVIEW

Two clubs chasing Copa Libertadores glory will do battle today in a cup match between Defensor Sporting and Atletico Nacional. The quarterfinal clash scheduled for 9 p.m. ET will be held at the Estadio Luis Franzini in Montevideo and can be live streamed here free.

A 2-0 defeat in Medellin has left Atletico Nacional in a desperate position. Not only is the club forced to overturn a two-goal deficit, but they must do it on the soils of the Estadio Luis Franzini in Uruguay. A disappointed Juan Carlos Osorio, however, believes his men can do so (h/t to Goal). "They [Defensor Sporting] got the result they wanted given what they planned—defend, waiting for a chance to counter," Osorio said.

"We gave it our all to win. The team had purpose from the opening whistle. We had several chances in front of goal that we didn't take advantage of," he added.

"We've had two bad results [recently]. We have to get up. I'm optimistic and I think we have [enough] to do so."
