Who: Chile vs. Colombia
When: Wednesday, June 22 @ 8 PM ET
Where: Soldier Field, Chicago, IL
Watch: FS1, Univision, (TV); FOX Sports Go, UDN App (Streaming)
How Chile Got Here: 1-2 L, 2-1 W, 4-2 W, 7-0 W
Started off by losing to Argentina before needing a penalty to beat Bolivia. Easily beat Panama and then routed Mexico. After the rout, Chile looks like a team ready to repeat as Copa America championship.
How Colombia Got Here: 2-0 W, 2-1 W, 2-3 L, 0-0 (4-2 PK) W
Handily got past the US, needed a wonderful stroke from Paraguay to make it close, then followed it up choking its first place position by losing to Costa Rica. Won in penalties over pesky Peru, this team can pull off the slight upset.
Prediction: 1-1 (4-3 in PK) Chile: This game will be much closer than the USA-Argentina game and will feature great defending, offense, and goalkeeping. Arturo Vidal will score in PKs and the goal in the 90 minutes for Chile, and will deliver his squad to the final for a rematch with Argentina.
