Peñarol look forward to challenge Nacional in this Club Friendlies 3 fixture. All you should learn about the match is found right here!

These teams are located so close to each other that their supporters eat in the same restaurants, hang out at the same night clubs and give birth at the same hospitals. This means added importance to the game and a vibrant atmosphere.

There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a Club Friendlies 3 game only two days ago.
