“Dance now!”, Lionel Messi’s chicane for a Colombian defender

After Yerry Mina missed his penalty, the Argentine could not contain his euphoria and his former teammate from Barcelona told him: “Dance, dance; dance now! ”.

In the 90 minutes, Argentina quickly took the lead with a goal from Lautaro Martínez, after the assistance of Lionel Messi. From that moment, the national team gave the ball to Colombia that began to generate their situations, however, at the end of the first half, Nicolás González had the chance to stretch the advantage with a header, after a corner executed from the left sector.

In the second half, practically all the attacks were for the coffee team that made three offensive changes from the start. The Selection directed by Scaloni was delayed in the field and what seemed obvious, ended up happening.

Colombia tied the game in the 60th minute, after Cardona quickly played a free kick in the middle of the field to put Luis Díaz head-to-head with the goalkeeper.

Argentina was able to gain the advantage again, first with a shot by Lautaro Martínez in which the Colombian goal had been defended only by a player who took it out on the line, and later it was himself Lionel Messi the one who hit the stick.

With the tie consummated, it was time for the definition by penalties and there Emiliano “Esque” Martínez put on the hero suit after stopping the shots at Davinson Sánchez, Yerry Mina and Edwin Cardona to put the Argentine National Team in the final of the Copa América that will be next Saturday at the Maracana Stadium against Brazil.
