Colombia's final penalty taker William Tesillo missed the target with his spot kick in the penalty shootout. The Chile captain Alexis Sanchez held his nerve and his strike made it 5-4 to secure a place in the semi-finals. Chile's dream of winning the Copa America for the third time in succession lives on. The semi-final against record winners Uruguay (15 titles) or Peru will be played in Porto Alegre in the early hours of Thursday morning. Brazil and Argentina meet in the first semi-final in Belo Horizonte the day before.
The scoreline in São Paulo was 0-0 after 90 minutes and at the end of extra time. Albeit, Chile twice thought they had scored. First of all, a goal from Charles Aránguiz was ruled out following VAR as Sanchez was offside and after the restart the referee also chalked off a goal scored by Arturo Vidal due to a handball by Guillermo Maripan again after consulting the VAR. Aránguiz had a good chance to score after 12 minutes but the Colombia keeper David Ospina kept out his header with a sensational save. The Bayer 04 pro, who has had a great tournament to date, was substituted on 67 minutes.
