Extra-time winner gives Argentina record Copa America triumph
Argentina lift the trophy after a dramatic final against Colombia
Martinez scores the only goal as Argentina win their 15th Copa America title
Argentina have won a record-breaking 15th Copa America title after Lautaro Martinez scored the only goal of the game in extra-time against Colombia.
The match was delayed for over an hour due to crowd trouble, and Lionel Messi was forced off with an injury in the first half.
But Argentina held on to win the match 1-0, and Martinez's goal means they have now won the Copa America more times than any other nation.
The victory is a major boost for Argentina, who have been in turmoil in recent months following their failure to qualify for the World Cup.
It is also a personal triumph for Messi, who has now led Argentina to their first major trophy since 2008.
