The 2011 Copa Libertadores de Fútbol Femenino was the third edition of the Copa Libertadores de Fútbol Femenino, CONMEBOL's premier annual international women's football club tournament. It was again held in Brazil from 13 to 27 November 2011.[1][2] Santos were the defending champions.

The competition was won by the local team São José for the first time. Two-time champion Santos finished in third place. Caracas' Ysaura Viso won the top-scorer award, having scored nine goals in her team's five matches.[3]

Changes from 2010

[edit]
  • The tournament was expanded from 10 to 12 teams. This allowed for Santos to enter and be able to defend their title. As well as a local team from the host city to join the competing teams.[4]

Format

[edit]

The twelve teams are divided in three groups of four. The teams then play each other once. After that the group winners and the best runner-up qualify for the semi-finals. Those as well as the final are single-legged, i.e. no home and away matches.[4]

Qualified teams

[edit]

There have been talks to expand the competition to 12 teams, give one spot to title holders Santos and one spot to the Japanese 2011 L. League champion.[5] Ultimately it was decided to give the twelfth spot to a local team of the host city.[4]

Final stages

[edit]

Santos meets São José in the semi-finals.[17] That is contrary to the initial regulations, as only on 14 November 2011, during the tournament, it was decided that if two teams from the same country make the semi-finals they would be paired in the semi-final so there would be no national final.[18]
