Chile stormed into the Copa America final on Wednesday, beating Colombia 2-0 in a weather-disrupted semi-final that took more than four hours to complete.

Chile, who had destroyed Mexico 7-0 in the quarterfinals on Saturday, picked up where they left off, scoring twice in the opening 11 minutes to take a grip on the contest.

Bayer Leverkusen midfielder Charles Aranguiz opened the scoring in the seventh minute before Jose Pedro Fuenzalida made it 2-0 after 11 minutes to set up a final clash with Argetina on Sunday.

Argentina defeated USA 4-0 in the previous semi final tie.

Sunday's final will be the second time Argentina and Chile have met in the tournament. Argentina beat the Chileans 2-1 in their opening Group D earlier this month.
