Argentina heading to finals....

It was a deserved victory for Tata Martino's side, who dominate and showed their attacking intent from the very first whistle. Argentina are through to the Copa America semi-finals after a hard fought win on penalties against Colombia.

Sergio Aguero and Pablo Zabaleta started for La Albiceleste, while it was former Blue Carlos Tevez who was the eventual hero, scoring the winning spot kick to book a place in the last four.
It was only the inspired display from Colombia stopper David Ospina that Colombia prevented Argentina from victory in normal time, with the keeper denying Aguero from close range before somehow reacting to keep out Lionel Messi's effort on the rebound.
However, with neither side able to find the breakthrough  in 90 minutes even the game the
extra time.
Argentina will now face the winner of Brazil vs Paraguay on Tuesday for the right to progress to the Final which could mean that city Argentina trio come up against Fernandinho in the semi final. Catch more info on Sunday for Brazil's quarter final news
