Conmebol carried out a surprise inspection at the training facilities of River Plate and Flamengo prior to the Copa Libertadores final.

While the River Plate players were going down one by one to have breakfast at the Swissotel's dining room, they were surprised to see the Conmebol medical team with the laboratory equipment to take samples for the classic anti-doping control that has also surprised Flamengo prior to the Copa Libertadores final.

Marcelo Gallardo, River Plate's coach, was also surprised by this matter at breakfast time, as this situation delayed the start of the trip for the first training in Alianza Lima stadium.

A similar situation was experienced at the Hyatt Centric hotel in San Isidro, when the Conmebol medical team caused more discomfort to the Flamengo squad, who had already finished breakfast and were about to board the bus to train at Videna, and the players had to comply with this protocol imposed by Conmebol every time a Copa Libertadores final is played.
