MESSI SCORES AS ARGENTINA BEATS CANADA TO REACH COPA AMERICAN FINAL
Argentina is one win away from its third straight major international title. Lionel Messi scored as La Albiceleste relatively cruised to a 2-0 win over Canada in their Copa America semifinal matchup Tuesday. Canada, under American manager Jesse Marsch, started the first 20 minutes as the better and more energetic team.
Jonathan David and Jacob Shaffelburg got into promising areas inside Argentina's defensive box, but they couldn't find the vital opening goal to increase the pressure. That quickly came back to bite Canada, as a defensive lapse led to Argentina's opener.
