Watch Argentina Vs. Chile Copa America Live Stream: Lionel Messi Plays For 3rd Place, Start Time, Preview

After a frustrating 2-0 semifinal loss to Brazil, after which he slammed the match’s refereeing decisions as “bull***t,” as quoted by The Independent, five-time Ballon D’or winner Lionel Messi can do no better than a third place finish in the 2019 Copa America. To achieve even that, Messi and Argentina will need to get by the team that thwarted them in the two previous Copa America finals, defending champions Chile. The game will likely be a last hurrah for the Chilean “Golden Generation,” led by Manchester United forward Alexis Sanchez, who finally ran into a wall when they were dominated in their semifinal by a surprising Peru side. Now the two aging stars will meet again in the tournament’s third-place match, a game that will live stream from Brazil.

Though Argentina lost the 2015 and 2016 Copa America finals to Chile, La Albiceleste have dominated the rivalry, which now covers 90 matches dating back to 1910, according to 11v11 data. Argentina have won 60 of those games with Chile taking only eight victories and 22 draws. In the most recent match between the two countries, a FIFA World Cup qualifier in 2017, Argentina squeaked out a 1-0 victory.

After the 2016 Copa America defeat to Chile, Messi announced his international retirement, which he soon rescinded, according to CNN. The 32-year-old living legend has made no such announcement this time, despite the bitter defeat to Brazil — perhaps because Messi saw the defeat as the work of the match officials.

“They were not better than us. The officiating was crazy. There were clear penalties, on Nicolas Otamendi, on Sergio Agüero. He [the referee] was on their side,” Messi said after the match.
