FIFA Club World Cup: Late substitute John Kennedy scored in extra-time as Brazil's Fluminense claimed their first Copa Libertadores title with a 2-1 victory over Argentine side Boca Juniors.

Kennedy put the hosts ahead in the 99th minute after Boca defender Luis Advincula had canceled out German Cano's opener at Rio de Janeiro's Maracana stadium on Saturday, Xinhua reports.

"This is our reward for all of the hard work that we've put in this season," Fluminense manager Fernando Diniz told reporters.
