After a brief engagement at CA Huracán , he was again active for River from 1964 to 1967. With the Millonarios , as River Plate is called because of their many expensive purchases since the thirties, Juan Carlos Sarnari won no championship, but qualified second in the Primera División 1965 for the Copa Libertadores 1966 , where the final was reached. There, coach Renato Cesarini's team , himself a player at River and Juventus Turin thirty years earlier , met CA Peñarol from Uruguay's capital Montevideo .
