🤯 Cruzeiro win their 1st Women's Libertadores after a CRAZY match It was an INSANE Copa Libertadores Femenina final this Saturday (31). Chasing a fourth consecutive title, Corinthians took a THREE-GOAL lead. But Cruzeiro fought back to make it 4-4 in stoppage time—a scoreline that had seemed unthinkable.

Vic Albuquerque restored a comfortable cushion for Timão (68'). But the game was still wide open. And Cruzeiro's substitutions paid off. Ketlin scored their third in the 75th minute. And Letícia made it 4-4 with a header between two defenders. Decided in sudden death Cruzeiro's Pri Back was the first to miss, with Lelê parrying her effort. But Jaqueline fired wide, leaving the teams level after three penalties each. No one else missed, taking the shootout to sudden death.
