Notes
- 1. The match was suspended in the 66th minute after a fan rushed the field and attacked a River Plate player. At the time, River Plate was ahead 1–0. CONMEBOL punished Blooming by changing the results to 3–0 and fining the club $10,000.
- 2. The match report erroneously places Gabriel Paletta's own goal in the 33rd minute of the first half. In actuality, the own goal occurred in the second half of the game at around the 78th minute mark. The mistake could be due to referee error since the 78th minute of the match is the 33rd minute of the second half.
