I'm picking Chile in an upset. It looks like their Copa America winning form from last year has never gone away. Their players look like they have endless stamina in their pursuit of the press. Should be a great match.

Freaking rookie defending on those 2 goals then we failed to capitalize. We deserved to lose even though we played well. One day we won't let nerves get the best of us. One day we'll play like we've been there before.

J-Mezzy, your guys played tough, just couldn't capitalize on some good opportunities. Claudio Bravo picked a good game to get back to form, he stopped several would-be goals last night. The Chilean midfield was a mess last night without Vidal and Diaz, happy to have them both back for the final.

I am thrilled La Roja is back in the finals and happy for another opportunity to play Argentina. Go Chile!!!!!!

I'm pretty sure that ref forgot Diaz already had a yellow when he pulled the second. He took several seconds to pull the red and had this look on his face like "Oh ****, he was already on a yellow."

The moment that happened, I knew that ref was going to give the first red he could to Argentina to even out the sides.

and there it is. I feel bad for Argentina, but Chile played a great tournament after their loss to Argentina.

Can't believe Argentina lost three finals in three summers.
They can't even blame Higuain now

Oh yea.

Messi still without a title on the international stage. Chile, in the middle of a golden generation, just keep stifling him.

Giroud wins one of these finals for Argentina. Higuain is the biggest loser in the world.

Higuain did it again! Also, credit to Bravo on Kun's header in extra time...great save.

Chile are on quite a run, we'll see how they do next year in the Confederations.

Riiiiight, where was the so called"goat" messi? Higuian missed a golden chance, but messi was the knee that was invisible the whole game and missed his pk.
