2024 Copa Libertadores final

The 2024 Copa Libertadores final was the final match which decided the winner of the 2024 Copa Libertadores. This was the 65th edition of the Copa Libertadores, the top-tier South American continental club football tournament organized by CONMEBOL. The match was played by Brazilian sides Atlético Mineiro and Botafogo on 30 November 2024 at the Estadio Monumental in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Botafogo defeated Atlético Mineiro in the match by a 3–1 score to win their first Copa Libertadores title. Luiz Henrique was elected MVP of the final and of the tournament. As winners of the competition, Botafogo qualified for the 2024 FIFA Intercontinental Cup, the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup and earned the right to play against the winners of the 2024 Copa Sudamericana in the 2025 Recopa Sudamericana. They also automatically qualified for the 2025 Copa Libertadores group stage.

On 13 February 2024, the Argentine Football Association announced through its social media accounts that CONMEBOL had selected Buenos Aires as the host city for the final match of the 2024 Copa Libertadores, at a stadium to be confirmed. From 26 to 30 May 2024, a delegation from CONMEBOL visited three stadiums that were shortlisted to host the event, which were Estadio Monumental in Buenos Aires, Estadio Libertadores de América in Avellaneda, and Estadio Único Diego Armando Maradona in La Plata to evaluate technical aspects of the stadiums and visit potential training centers and accommodation sites for the finalist teams.

On 4 October 2024, CONMEBOL confirmed Estadio Monumental as the venue for the final match. This was the first Copa Libertadores final hosted in Argentina since the finals have been played as single matches, as well as the eighth time that a Copa Libertadores final was played at the stadium.

Note: In all scores below, the score of the home team is given first.

The final was played as a single match at a pre-selected venue, with the higher-seeded team designated as the "home" team for administrative purposes. If scores were level after full time, 30 minutes of extra time would be played. If still tied after extra time, a penalty shoot-out would be used to determine the winner.

On the opening ceremony before the kick-off, after a live music and dance performance, Djonga sang chants of Atlético Mineiro's fans and the club's anthem, and Marcelo Adnet did the same for Botafogo. The trophy of Copa Libertadores was brought to the pitch by Serbian tennis player Novak Djokovic.

Matías Zaracho (Atlético Mineiro) and Bastos (Botafogo) missed the final due to injuries, as well as Mateo Ponte (Botafogo), who was ruled out due to suspension.
