Believe it or not, it's been halftime in the Chile v Colombia semifinal for a couple of hours because of a weather delay.

So, 4 and a quarter hours after they played the National Anthems, we've just had a melee and a pitch intruder. Funny game.

Yes, it has. I forgot to mention the red card that ruined any chance of a Colombian comeback.

That's it. Chile are victors and will play Argentina in the final.

USA will play Colombia in the third-place play-off which is always the most pointless match of the competition.

A second yellow for Diaz. Chile down to 10 men. 30 minutes gone. Nil-all.

Messi dons his snorkel and mask and earns himself a yellow! 41 minutes gone, still 0-0.

And now we're playing 10-a-side, as Rojo is red-carded for a tackle that looked to me to take the ball.

Really, imagine if our umpires had the power to send off in a Collingwood-Carlton GF.

Another yellow for Chile. Messi hacked down (again). Higuain and Di Maria have both been subbed out for Argentina. Aguero is on.
