Miguel Borja, Luan, Rafael Borré : they stole the show in the Copa Libertadores
Few days ago, River Plate won the fifth Copa Libertadores in their history. During this edition, several players seen at the Maurice Revello Tournament have shone. Recap.
After a thrilling final, River Plate have beaten their rivals Boca Juniors (2-2 in the first leg, 3-1 in the second leg). Los Millonarios have lifted this trophy for the fifth time and Rafael Borré played a key role in this winning run. The Colombian forward, who played the Maurice Revello Tournament in 2014, has found the net during the last round of 16 against Racing (Argentina), in the quarter finals against Independiente (Argentine) and during the semi-finals against the title holders Gremio (Brazil).
