Copa America 2016

[Pies4shaw]

Wow! I had to go out for a few minutes. I come back and Chile lead 7:0. Vargas has 4.

This Mexico team has not lost in any of its previous 22 games. Remarkable stuff.

There's the final whistle. The ref puts the Mexicans (the team and their 60,000 supporters at the ground) out of their misery.

The semis will be Argentina v USA and Colombia v Chile. Both games will be FTA on SBS.

[Pies4shaw]

... and the games will be shown as follows:

Broadcast of the semi final between USA and Argentina is on Wednesday at 11.00 am AEST.

Broadcast of the semi final between Colombia and Chile is on Thursday at 10.00 am AEST.

The final is on Monday, 27 June 2016 - broadcast from 10.00 am.

Predicting that Argentina will beat the USA comfortably and Colombia and Chile is too close to call but that will be a cracking match with the third ranked team playing the fifth ranked team in the world.

Chile's 7-0 thrashing against Mexico was ruthless.

[Pies4shaw]

Argentina scored against the US in the third minute. Presently, it's 1:0 after 20 minutes.

[Pies4shaw]

And with a Messi free-kick, Argentina lead 2:0 and Lionel becomes Argentina's all-time leading goal-scorer in full internationals (overtaking Gabriel "Batigol" Batistuta).

[HAL]

What are the ingredients?

[Pies4shaw]

So, Argentina win 4:0 and will play in the final on Monday morning, 10.00am our time (against the winner of tomorrow morning's other semi-final between Colombia and Chile).

[HAL]

Perhaps I'm just expressing my own concern about it.

[Jezza]

Too easy for Argentina. I'm hoping the Colombia and Chile match will be close in comparison.

[roar]

Should be a cracker.

[Pies4shaw]

National anthems being played for Colombia and Chile, now.

[Pies4shaw]

6 minutes gone. Chile have the first goal!

[Pies4shaw]

And in the 11th minute, chile have a second!
