36' OFF THE BASE OF THE POST! A cross into the penalty area looking for Borre is cleared to the edge of the penalty area by Otamendi. Barrios gets on the end of the loose ball and hammers a volley through a crowd of bodies, which clips off the woodwork on it’s way out!
34' Messi shows off his skills once again going on a slaloming run - holding off both Mina and Barrios before working a pass to Lautaro Martinez which allows the Argentina attack to continue.
32' Cuadrado’s corner is taken deep for Mina, who mistimes his jump and fails to make contact with the delivery, allowing Argentina to win a throw-in on the far side.
30' Rodriguez wins possession high up the pitch and puts a pass to the edge of the penalty area for Lautaro Martinez, but the striker’s first touch is a poor one as the ball gets away from him allowing Tesillo to get it away.
28' Cuadrado steps up to hit the set-piece and gets his curling effort up and over the wall, though it misses the target by a considerable distance.
26' The referee awards Colombia a free-kick 25 yards from goal following a Lo Celso handball in the aftermath of the headed clearance.
24' Cuadrado fires Colombia’s first corner of the match into the penalty area looking for Zapata - but Rodriguez gets the initial headed clearance.
23' Cuadrado gets another chance to work on his delivery from a second free-kick in midfield, this time on the left. It’s a much better take from the winger, but the Argentina defence is able to deal with it without too much trouble.
22' Cuadrado takes the centrally placed free-kick and looks to send it into the penalty area, but it fails to beat the first line of defence as Gonzalez heads it away.
19' Mina looks to start an attack from the back but his launched pass travels too far for Dias, allowing Molina to win back possession deep in his own half.
17' Argentina are looking firmly in control, winning possession back comfortably after overloading Cuadrado and forcing a misplaced pass from the Juventus winger. The early goal has certainly settled Albiceleste nerves, though Colombia will continue to press forward at every opportunity.
15' Mina elbows Lautaro Martinez and gives away a free-kick in midfield after the striker looked to have the beating of the centre-back.
13' It’s Colombia’s turn to press high, looking to target Argentina’s right-back as they look to win the ball. It’s coolly done from Molina, who manages to shift his weight and fire a pass out to the left for Tagliafico which relieves the pressure.
11' Play is stopped momentarily after Zapata clatters into Emiliano Martinez during an attempt to get onto the loose ball. It seems the Colombia forward has come off worse, though they’ll both be able to continue.
9' WHAT A SAVE FROM EMILIANO MARTINEZ! The Argentina keeper is called into action immediately after the restart as a low cross from the left finds Cuadrado, who smashes a shot from close range - managing only to hit the goalkeeper in the chest!
6' Cuadrado whips a dangerous cross to the far post looking for Zapata, but some clever defending prevents the Atalanta striker from reaching the delivery.
4' CLOSE! Messi takes on and beats three defenders on his way into the Colombia penalty area, dropping his shoulder and squeezing past Mina and Munoz before chipping a cross into the centre of the area for Lautaro Martinez, whose header just misses the inside of the far post!
3' Argentina are pressing the ball very high on defence, looking for Colombia to turn it over in advantageous positions. Mina resorts to lumping it downfield, allowing Emiliano Martinez to start an attack.
1' Argentina get the match underway from the kick-off!
Colombia switch from a 4-2-3-1 to a 4-4-2 and make one change in personnel after their penalty shoot-out victory over Uruguay, as Cuadrado returns to the line-up, displacing Muriel.

With 15 minutes to go before kick-off, let's take a look at how the two sides are lining up - starting with Argentina!
Colombia qualified third from their group behind Brazil and Peru but managed to get through the quarters thanks to a win on penalties against Uruguay after the match finished 0-0. The Cafeteros are undefeated against Argentina in their last three matches - including beating them in the 2019 Copa America; a streak that dates back to 2018. It’s been 20 years since Colombia have made it to the finals of the tournament, when a 1-0 win over Mexico earned them their first title.
Brazil await the winner of tonight’s contest after a cagey 1-0 victory over Peru guaranteed the hosts passage into the final. Argentina are looking to make it 19 matches on the bounce without defeat, which they can do should they manage to get past Colombia. The Albiceleste finished first in their group ahead of Uruguay, before a 3-0 victory over Ecuador put them in position to reach their third showpiece in the last four competitions.
