RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — The Maracana Stadium in Rio de Janeiro will host this season’s Copa Libertadores final, with the Copa Sudamericana decider to be played in Montevideo.

Alejandro Dominguez, the president of the South American soccer body, announced the decision on his social media channels.

The Maracana hosted the Copa Libertadores final in 2020. This year’s match will be played on Nov. 11.
