In sports news, Argentina triumphed over Colombia with a 1-0 victory to win their record 16th Copa America title at Hard Rock Stadium.
The decisive goal came from Lautaro Martinez in extra time, making him the tournament’s top scorer with five goals. The match, which faced an 82-minute delay due to security and crowd issues, saw Argentina captain Lionel Messi leave the field injured in the 66th minute, adding a somber note to the win. Angel Di Maria also had an emotional farewell in his final game for the national team.
For Colombia, the defeat was disappointing, especially after an unbeaten streak of 28 games. The game had a chaotic start due to entry issues at the stadium, with some fans needing medical attention for heat exhaustion.
The situation improved after gates were opened without checks, allowing the match to proceed.
Colombia’s Jhon Corboba hit the post early on, and Jefferson Lerma forced a save from Argentina’s Emiliano Martinez with a long-range shot.
However, Argentina managed to secure the win despite Colombia’s spirited performance.
