Hosts Chile stun Argentina to claim first Copa América title on penalties

Image result for chile wins copa     After 99 years, it came down to Alexis Sánchez against Sergio Romero from 12 yards. The Arsenal forward attempted a Panenka, scuffed it badly, and scored anyway as the goalkeeper dived to his left. Misses from Gonzalo Higuaín and Éver Banega in the shootout proved decisive and, finally, Chile, one of the four participants at the inaugural Copa América, had a first international trophy. For Argentina the drought goes on: 22 years since their last trophy and an increasing sense that this gifted generation of players will remain unfulfilled.
Good one for the Chileans...especially Alexi sanchez of Arsenal!!! So sad for Lionel messi...hope dashed, when will he win this cup. The great footballers before him have won this cup. Why not him? Better luck next time Argentina!!!
