LIMA, Peru (AP) Flamengo won the Copa Libertadores in dramatic fashion when it produced two last-gasp goals to beat defending champion River Plate 2-1 in the final on Saturday.
Flamengo's Gabriel Barbosa scored in the 88th minute and in the second minute of injury time to give the Rio de Janeiro giant their first South American crown in 38 years.
''Tomorrow, Rio is ours,'' Gabriel said. ''I want all Flamengo fans on the streets, we will invade Rio.''
River's 14th-minute strike through Rafael Santos Borre was set to make the Argentine side the first back-to-back winner in 18 years.
