The 2023 Copa Libertadores final was the final match which decided the winner of the 2023 Copa Libertadores. This was the 64th edition of the Copa Libertadores, the top-tier South American continental club football tournament organized by CONMEBOL.
The match was played between Argentine team Boca Juniors and Brazilian side Fluminense on 4 November 2023 at the Estádio do Maracanã in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.[1]
Fluminense won their first ever Copa Libertadores after defeating Boca Juniors 2–1 after extra time.[2][3][4]
As winners, Fluminense qualified for the 2023 and 2025 FIFA Club World Cups and earned the right to play against the 2023 Copa Sudamericana winners LDU in the 2024 Recopa Sudamericana (which Fluminense would later go on to win as well). They also automatically qualified for the 2024 Copa Libertadores group stage.
