Copa America: Alexis Mac Allister's Argentina beat Chile to earn knockout berth

 

Alexis Mac Allister helped Argentina to a late 1-0 victory over Chile at the Copa America to secure a place in the knockout stages.

The Liverpool midfielder completed the full match for his nation in the early hours of Wednesday as they made it two wins from two in Group A of the tournament.

Substitute Lautaro Martinez provided the decisive goal in the 88th minute of the contest at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, converting a loose ball from close range following a Lionel Messi corner.

Argentina are the first country to secure a spot in the last eight of the competition and will take on Peru in their final group fixture on Sunday in Miami.
