The selection of Argentina empató to zero with Chile in the final of the Glass Centenarian America 2016. The albiceleste finish falling again in front of the "red "" in the penaltis where his star Leo Messi erró one of the maximum penalties. Bravo was hero
The Argentinian of Leo Messi went back to crash in a final. In this occasion, and to the equal that in the last final of the Glass America contested in Santiago, the albiceleste calló with identical result in front of the Chile of Claudio Bravo after having deserved during the 120 minutes precedents the victory. Again a batch of penaltis deprived them to make history and finish with the drought of a country that carries 26 years without knowing the victory.
Everything began with a meeting in which Argentina carried the baton from the beginning. With Leo Messi very covered by the rival defence (that it devoted to inflarle to patadas), the albiceleste warned in the first minute with a kick of Éver Banega that finish cutting across Claudio Bravo. The cancerbero turned into the hero of the night saving all what arrived him.
By his part, the Chilean attack remained impoluto during more than 78 minutes, those that took in arriving to the rival door and do his first kick of the meeting, by mediation of Vargas. Before, in the minute 28, Marcelo Díaz went expelled by part of Chile after two aggressive consecutive faults on Leo. Fifteen minutes afterwards would be Maros Red the one who by a very rigorous red direct would have to leave the green.
An action that hico to Mascherano delay his position and plant in the centre of the saga, finish with the monopoly of the ball of his for Chilean profit. The Argentinians went back to remain without marking by third consecutive final and Gonzalo Higuaín went back to fail it infallable after an error of the half Gary Medel. After three chutos of Agüero, Banega and Messi in the extention Bravo desquitaba with stops and did to arrive to his to the fateful batch.
A batch of penaltis where Arturo Vidal failed the first after cutting across Sergio Romero but Leo Messi did the same with his shot, sending it high. Lucas Biglia failed the last launching, or stopped Bravo, and Francisco Silva hit between the three sticks to do to his repeat entorchado.
