Copa Interamericana
The Copa Interamericana () was an international association football, football competition endorsed by CONCACAF (North, Central America and Caribbean) and CONMEBOL (South America). Established in 1969, it was discontinued in 1998 after CONCACAF clubs, particularly those from Mexico, began participating in CONMEBOL competitions. The competition was intended to be contested between the winners of the North American CONCACAF Champions Cup and the South American Copa Libertadores tournaments, although the participants varied at times. The competition was usually contested over a two legged tie, with a playoff or penalty kicks if necessary, but it was common for several consecutive editions to go unheld. Of the 18 competitions played out, four of them were contested over several matches in just one venue. Two others were held in a single match. Another two editions had participants that didn't outright qualify to dispute the competition. Most of the editions were held one, and someti ...

The match was played at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome.

The Cup was played in a single match instead of a two-legged final, as happened in the previous and following years until 1979. Background Independiente were the 1973 Copa Libertadores winners and defeated the Chilean side Colo-Colo in the finals with a goal in extra time. It was their ...
