Format
[edit]The finals were played on a home-and-away two-legged basis, with the higher-seeded team hosting the second leg. If tied on aggregate, the away goals rule would not be used, and 30 minutes of extra time would be played. If still tied after extra time, the penalty shoot-out would be used to determine the winner.[2] If extra time was played, a fourth substitution would be allowed.
Matches
[edit]Paolo Guerrero (Flamengo), provisionally suspended for failing doping test, missed the first leg.[3] On 7 December 2017, the FIFA Disciplinary Committee decided to suspend Guerrero for one year, missing the second leg.[4] After the finals, FIFA Appeal Committee reduced the sanction to a six-month suspension.[5]
First leg
[edit]Flamengo scored after eight minutes when Réver headed a free kick from Trauco. Independiente equalized through Emmanuel Gigliotti, who combined with Benitez and finished a counter attack. Seven minutes after halftime, Barco crossed from the left side and Maximiliano Meza scored the winning goal with a right-footed volley.[6]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
