Canada makes history as Chile bows out of Copa
Canada played out a dour goalless Copa America draw with 10-man Chile but made history to claim second place in Group A and progress to the quarter-finals, while La Roja finished third to exit at the group stage for the first time since 2004.
The draw moved Canada up to four points in Group A, five behind leader Argentina, which stamped it authority on the group by beating all three of its opponents, ending with a 2-0 win over Peru.
Two-times champion Chile ended with two points and Peru finished bottom with one.
Chile, which needed to win and have other results go its way, had that uphill task made even harder after Gabriel Suazo was shown a second yellow card in the 27th minute for bringing down Richie Laryea.
In a game where chances were few and far between, Chile goalkeeper Gabriel Arias did well to keep out shots from Canada's Stephen Eustaquio and Tajon Buchanan, while Canada stopper Maxime Crepeau made a smart save to deny an awkward deflected effort from Alexis Sanchez.
Canada thought it had taken the lead in the second minute of stoppage-time through substitute Tani Oluwaseyi, but the goal was correctly ruled out for offside.
