Boca Juniors are refusing to play the rearranged second leg of the Copa Libertadores final - insisting they should be awarded the title following last weekend’s chaos in Buenos Aires.

Billed as the biggest club game in South American football history, the second leg was twice delayed on Saturday, postponed until Sunday and then called off following an attack by River Plate fans on the Boca team coach.
