The move paved the way for Libertadores to add further competitiveness. While no Mexican team has won the most prestigious competition on this side of the hemisphere yet, they certainly came close on one occasion and have consistently had many of its teams advance past the group stages.
Pearol are third with five wins, their most recent of which was in 1987. Boca Juniors have lost the most finals, having lost on six occasions. Overall, 26 clubs have won the competition since its inception in 1960. Clubs from Argentina have won the most Copas Libertadores, with 25 titles among them.
