Copa Libertadores 2005




São Paulo becomes the first Brazilian team to win the Cup on three occasions. The team also won the event in 1992 and 1993.

It was the first time ever that two teams from the same country have reached the final match. Due to some modifications on the tournament rules, this was impossible until 2004. This year's tournament was also the first Copa Libertadores to employ the Away Goals Rule in knockout ties.

This tournament also was responsible for giving São Paulo coach Paulo Autuori his second cup championship, matching the club's legendary coach Telê Santana .
