Fluminense defeated Boca Juniors in the final of the 2023 Copa Libertadores and was crowned the champion with Colombians Jhon Arias and Yony González on board. The other Colombian who had an important participation was Wilmar Roldán, who made a serious mistake in the match, according to Carlos Antonio Vélez.

Without a doubt, the Colombians were the protagonists of this Copa Libertadores final: On the one hand, due to the great performance of Jhon Arias for Fluminense, on the other, the childish expulsion of Frank Fabra in extra time and at the midpoint Wilmar Roldán, who did not lose control of the game despite its magnitude.
In any case, the referee did not get it 100% right, since there was a play that Carlos Antonio Vélez noticed and surely many also in the replays, especially those who were giving Fluminense strength.
It was a possible infraction by Frank Fabra on Jhon Arias in the first half: according to Wilmar Roldán, the Colombian attacker dropped when he felt the contact, but to the Win Sports commentator it seemed like a clear penalty.
Likewise, in his comment, Vélez took the opportunity to qualify both Arias and Fabra:
“Boca Juniors’ luck ran out, they went very far without winning games and only supported by their goalkeeper. For football they deserved less. Fluminense won well. Legitimate champion. Jhon Arias, outstanding as in the entire Cup, danced, in partnership with Keno, to Fabra, who in desperation had himself expelled. Roldán failed to award a penalty in the first half in favor of the Brazilians. “This is as far as the verse goes!” Carlos Antonio concluded through his ‘X’ account.
Their luck ran out. @BocaJrsOficial He went very far without winning games and only supported by his goalkeeper. For football they deserved less. @FluminenseFC won well. Legitimate champion. Jhon Arias stood out as in the entire Cup, he danced, in partnership with Keno, to Fabra who became desperate…
