South America's Top Clubs - June 2016

All the way to the top in June: Robinho and Atlético Mineiro.
Despite just one win to start the new Serie A season in Brazil, Atlético Mineiro have gathered the top of the monthly South American club ranking. This was mainly due to their success in the Copa Libertadores. Only recently, they were eliminated on away goals by their countrymen from São Paulo. 

Back in May, it was still Corinthians on top of the Germancopa ranking. In June, the Brazilian champions of 2015 have slipped down to fourth. The dominance (5 of top 7 from Brazil) from one country is only broken up by Boca Juniors and Olimpia who did well in Copa Libertadores or league respectively.

The rules if you missed them previously:
For this table, we look at the last 15 results from each team in South America’s leagues and Copa Libertadores/Sudamericana. A win in the league gets you 3 points, a draw 1. Internationally those numbers are doubled to 6 and 2.
