— Catholic News Svc (@CatholicNewsSvc) August 20, 2014 Of course San Lorenzo won Copa Libertadores. They had god on their side.
Pope Francis didn’t even bother hiding his handiwork, ensuring that his club would win the South American crown in his first year at the Vatican. Now Real Madrid should be scared, because they have to face San Lorenzo and the Pope in the Club World Cup.
Congratulations, San Lorenzo, and your helpful angels.
