The last time they were in the finals was in 1987 but fell short against Uruguay although they avenged that loss last week with a 1-0 win to reach the semi-final round.

Juventus defender Mauricio Isla scored Chile's lone goal in the match in the 81<sup>st minute.

Meanwhile, Peru downed Bolivia 3-1 at the Estadio Germán Becker in Temuco, Chile to reach the semi-finals and set a date with the host nation.

Clube de Regatas do Flamengo forward Paolo Guerrero shined in the victory as he scored a hat trick to help his nation advance.

Both squads were successful on their first three spot kicks until Sampdoria striker Luis Muriel missed one.

The Argentine squad is filled with top players including Barcelona's Lionel Messi and Carlos Tevez who recently joined his former club Boca Juniors from Juventus, but were unable to perform to the way they are expected in the tournament.

Meanwhile, Paraguay was able to stun Brazil on penalties with the team missing some of its best players including Neymar .
