2024 Recopa Sudamericana
The CONMEBOL Recopa Sudamericana (Portuguese: CONMEBOL Recopa Sul-Americana), also known as the Recopa Sudamericana or CONMEBOL Recopa, and simply as the Recopa (Spanish:[reˈkopa], Portuguese:[ʁɛˈkɔpɐ]; "Winners' Cup"), is an annual international club football competition organized by CONMEBOL since 1988. It is a match-up between the champions of the previous year's Copa Libertadores and the Copa Sudamericana, South America's premier club competitions.
The competition has had several formats over its lifetime. Initially, the champions of the Copa Libertadores and Supercopa Libertadores contested it. In 1998, the Supercopa Libertadores was discontinued and the Recopa went into a hiatus. The competition has been disputed with either a presently-used two-legged series or a single match-up at a neutral venue. Together with the aforementioned tournaments, a club has the chance to win the CONMEBOL Treble all in one year or season.[1] However, if the Copa Libertadores and Copa Sudamericana are won by the same team, then according to the Copa Libertadores regulations Article 1.7,[2][3] both competitions' runners-up will play one or two matches in order to decide the team which will play in the Recopa.
The most recent champion of the competition is Brazilian club Fluminense, after beating LDU Quito in the 2024 edition. Argentine club Boca Juniors is the most successful club in the cup history, having won the tournament four times. Brazilian clubs have accumulated the most victories with eleven wins while Brazil has the most different winning teams, with eight clubs having won the title. The cup has been won by 17 clubs and won consecutively by four clubs: São Paulo, LDU Quito, Boca Juniors and River Plate successfully defended the title in 1994, 2010, 2006, and 2016, respectively.
