Argentina has successfully defended their Copa America title after a thrilling victory over Colombia, courtesy of Lautaro Martinez’s late strike in the pulsating 120-minute match at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, FL.

The intense game, which ended 0-0 in regular time, extended into a 30-minute extra time. Surprisingly, Colombia slightly outperformed Argentina, having more shots on goal and maintaining greater possession.
