Lionel Messi swaps shirts with 17-year-old Chelsea star Kendry Páez after Argentina beat Ecuador in the Copa America
The South Americans are looking to win their 16th Copa America title, with their most recent one coming in 2021.
However, they did flirt with elimination in the quarter-final, with Ecuador taking them to penalties after making it 1-1 in the first minute of added time.
Argentina came out on top in the end, winning 4-2 in the shootout – however, Lionel Messi did miss a spot-kick in the process.
Canada, on their tournament debut, also squeezed through on penalties after drawing 1-1 with Venezuela.
Now, Marsch and co will be tasked with downing the side that left him fuming at the very start of the competition, as Canada look to pull off a huge shock and reach the final in their debut Copa America campaign.
