Porto Algre, Brazil (My Sportsbook) - Juan Roman Riquelme scored a pair of second-half goals as Argentinian power Boca Juniors defeated Brazilian club Gremio 2-0 to win its sixth Copa Libertadores title by a final aggregate of 5-0. The title was the Argentinian club's fourth in seven years. The 2-0 win followed a 3-0 first leg victory in Buenos Aires last week. It was the fourth time the perennial Buenos Aires power beat a Brazilian team to win the Copa Libertadores. The last time was when Boca defeated Santos in 2003. Wednesday's match marked the Boca farewell Riquelme, as he is likely to head to Europe next season. He played in Argentina this year on loan after several seasons with Spain's Villarreal.
