Almost a year and a half from the historical moment in which River won the Copa Libertadores against Boca Juniors, videos and images keep appearing that demonstrate that what happened on December 9 is truly eternal and an indelible mark for both institutions and for world football.
The house of Real Madrid It was, unusually for reasons more than known, the home of the millionaire coronation. So the merengue club made a video with the ‘behind the scenes’ of said meeting where you can see the previous, with the illusion of the two teams, the preparation of the Santiago Bernabeu and the changing rooms. Even the warm-up of the players, the anxiety of the fans and the exit of both squads is also appreciated.
The end of the video from the playing field shows us an image already known but that we will never tire of seeing. The River Plate celebration, papers in the wind, uncontrollable and dreamy hubbub with trophy in hand and in the heights. The lucky one who holds the glass up high and kisses it? Lucas Martínez Quarta.

Never before has the Champions League or the Copa Libertadores, the two most important competitions in the world at club level, had in the final instance the most important and exciting classic on the continent, such as Real Madrid vs. Barcelona, and if necessary with extenuating Milan vs. Inter, Juventus vs. Inter or Manchester United vs. Manchester City to name a few examples.
The closest thing had been in the 2013 Champions League between Bayern and Borussia Dortmund or in 2014 and 2016 with Real Madrid and Atlético Madrid, great classics but without the worldwide repercussion of the aforementioned, but the River vs. Boca 2018 broke history.
We also remember that the Real Madrid Museum has a space dedicated to the 2018 Copa Libertadores, with a replica of the trophy, the shirts of the champion and the runner-up and the images of the match with “and the third one goes” included. A River – Boca unique, unrepeatable and eternal.
