  "account": "Spanish paper As lauded Fluminense goalkeeper Fábio after his team's qualification for the Conmebol Libertadores quarter-finals. The 45-year-old hero was praised for his pivotal performance in the match against Independiente Rivadavia in Argentina. The game, held last Tuesday at the Malvinas Argentinas stadium in Mendoza, ended in a 1-1 draw after normal time. The decisive moment came in the penalty shootout. After Lucho missed Fluminense's second penalty, Fábio saved Florentín's effort, displaying remarkable resilience. Guga then took over for Fluminense's final penalty and converted it with precision. The final save came when Atencio needed to score to keep Argentina alive, but Fábio stepped up again, saving the penalty and securing Fluminense's qualification. With their spot in the Libertadores quarter-finals secured, Fluminense now awaits the identity of their next opponent from the tie between Coquimbo Unido (Chile) and Platense (Argentina).",
