Argentina goalkeeper, Emiliano Martinez saved three penalties as they beat Colombia 3-2 on penalties to qualify for the final of the Copa America.

Lionel Messi continued his special tournament by assisting a 7th-minute Lautaro Martinez goal, but an off-balance Luis Diaz restored level terms in the second half.

Messi and Argentina will now face Neymar and Brazil in the final at 12pm Sunday.
