When it comes to the Copa Libertadores, no country compares to the dominance of Argentina. Since Independiente gave Argentina its first title victory in 1964, clubs from the soccer-mad nation have accounted for 21 trophies, far more than any other country, including Brazil.
In 2005 and '06, the final of the Copa Libertadores was an all-Brazilian affair. The South American Federation took action to prevent a repeat, ruling that if two teams from the same country made it through to the last four, they'd be forced to play in the semifinals -- thus ensuring two different countries are represented in the final.

If there was any question who the dominant power in the Western Hemisphere is, Boca Juniors provided an empathic answer on Wednesday. Boca's stunning 5-0 aggregate victory over Gr�mio in the final of the Copa Libertadores was the most one-sided score line in the history of Latin America's ultimate club competition.
Thick fog descended on Buenos Aires on the day of the Copa Libertadores semifinal second leg tie between local heroes Boca Juniors and this year's surprise side, C�cuta of Colombia.
After last week's debacle, most would say Boca Juniors has no chance. But since their surprise loss to C�cuta Deportivo in the first leg of the Copa Libertadores semifinals, the Argentines have put things in perspective, and are convinced they can reach their fifth final in seven years.
With a total of nine titles between them, Argentina's Boca Juniors and Brazil's Gr�mio and Santos are no surprises as Copa Libertadores semifinalists. The same can't be said for the other member of South America's last four. No one could possibly have expected C�cuta Deportivo of Colombia to get this far.
