Argentina achieved the second championship by winning this America Cup “USA 2024” following beating Colombia 1-0 in the grand final played this Sunday, July 14, at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami.
The match was played out in a tense atmosphere, following several disturbances and irregularities outside the venue, which delayed the match for 45 minutes.
Both Argentina and Colombia created dangerous chances and attacks on goal, but failed to capitalize on their opportunities in the 90 minutes of regulation time.
The match was therefore decided in extra time, when Lautaro Martínez appeared in the 112th minute to send the ball into the back of the net and become the hero of the match.
The score was 1-0 following extra time, and Argentina won its second consecutive title and the 16th in the history of the Copa América.
It is worth noting that the star of the Albiceleste team, Lionel Messi, left the match in tears of pain, having been substituted in the 66th minute due to an injury.
