On Wednesday, Colombia beat Uruguay 1-0 in the second semifinal of the Copa América, the men’s soccer tournament currently underway in the United States that usually features South American national teams, but which this year also includes some Central and North American teams: they will play in the final against Argentina, who beat Canada in the first semifinal on Tuesday. The final will be on Sunday, July 14, at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami.
Colombia needed just a header from midfielder Jefferson Lerma in the 39th minute to beat Uruguay. The Colombian national team dominated the match, despite having to play the entire second half with one player less, due to the expulsion of defender Daniel Muñoz.
At the end of the match, there was a brawl between Uruguay players and Colombian fans: some players, including Liverpool striker Darwin Núñez, climbed into the stands and pushed and punched the Colombian fans.
