It was the first time in Copa Libertadores history that the bitter Buenos Aires rivals have faced each other in the final.The second leg of the match had been due to take place at River’s El Monumental Stadium.But it was moved more than 6,000 miles from Buenos Airesto the Spanish capital after it was postponed in November when Boca’s team bus was attacked by River fans, which caused injury to players and staff.Boca had taken a first-half lead at the Bernabeu through Dario Benedetto but River hit back through Lucas Pratto and Boca’s hopes were badly hit after Wilmar Barrios was sent off early in extra-time.Juan Quintero then all but settled a keenly fought encounter with a stunning strike after 109 minutes before Gonzalo Martinez broke away for a third, securing a 5-3 aggregate success, in the dying moments.River’s victory sparked some amazing scenes back in Argentina, with thousands taking to the streets of Buenos Aires to celebrate the historic triumph by their club.66666
