Argentina beat Colombia 1-0 to win 2024 Copa America

Argentina won their 16th Copa America title, defeating Colombia 1-0 in extra time at Hard Rock Stadium. Lautaro Martinez scored the winning goal, his fifth in the tournament.

The match was marked by security issues, crowd delays, and an injury to Lionel Messi, who was replaced in the 66th minute.

Argentina’s win follows their 2021 Copa victory and 2022 World Cup triumph. Colombia’s search for their second title continues, with their only win coming in 2001.

Despite a disappointing first half, Argentina’s quality eventually shone through, with Martinez’s finish securing the win.
