Argentina Beat Columbia 1-0 To Claim 16th Copa America Title



Argentina won record 16th Copa America title after extra-time goal from Lautaro Martinez. 


A goal deep into extra-time by Lautaro Martinez gave Argentina a 1-0 win over Colombia and a record-breaking 16th Copa America title.


Martinez goal sparked wild celebrations at the Hard Rock Stadium after Lionel Messi earlier taken off injured.



Argentina lost a tearful Lionel Messi to injury midway through the second half of a game delayed by more than an hour by crowd issues, but Martinez came off the bench in the extra half-hour to ensure his captain would lift a third successive major trophy.


The win in Miami followed 2021 Copa America success and the World Cup triumph in 2022.


The final was delayed for over an hour with thousands of ticketless fans trying to enter stadium.
