The clock is already counting down to this momentous clash. With two historic teams from the region ready to compete for the title, we are approaching the final of the Copa Libertadores 2023. Fluminense, representing Brazil, secured their spot by defeating Internacional de Porto Alegre, while Boca Juniors, representing Argentina, overcame Palmeiras. To keep you informed about this crucial match, we have prepared this article with the date, schedule, and TV channels that will broadcast the exciting continental showdown.
At the Maracanã stadium, Boca Juniors presents itself with a mission they have been passionately pursuing since the distant year of 2007, when they last lifted the Copa Libertadores: to win their seventh title in this venerable continental tournament, thus equaling the legendary record of Independiente de Avellaneda, known as the undisputed 'King of Cups'.
The xeneize team, which arrived in Rio de Janeiro on Wednesday, where a large number of Argentine fans can already be noticed, held their training sessions at Vasco da Gama's training facilities, which are located near Fluminense, as part of their preparation for the long-awaited showdown, which will be played in a single match.
On the other hand, Fluminense is in their second Copa Libertadores final, standing out as one of the Brazilian teams that masterfully execute the iconic "jogo bonito". However, a weakness in their defensive line is evident, an aspect in which they must show strength against the xeneizes if they want to maintain their aspirations.
Since Wednesday, the Brazilians have been conducting their training sessions in preparation for the Libertadores final. All the starting players, including defenders Nino and Felipe Melo, who were injured, are available. Everything is taking shape to reach the pinnacle of success.
