Could United’s Copa America trio clash in final?


Penalty miss for Rojo

The three Manchester United players involved in the 2015 Copa America are all still targeting glory, with Argentina progressing to the semi-finals on Friday despite Marcos Rojo’s penalty miss.

United's centre-half missed a sudden death spot-kick, but Argentina still progressed to the semi-finals of the Copa America as their clash with Colombia went the distance.

The last eight clash was decided from twelve yards after 120 minutes of goalless action, with neither country able to add to the 45 goals scored at the tournament thus far.

United's Angel di Maria played the opening 87 minutes, whilst recently departed loanee Falcao featured from the bench for Colombia, and later bagged a penalty.

Argentina will face either Brazil or Paraguay in the semi-finals, whilst Chile and Peru do battle in the other final four contest.

United forward Ángelo Henríquez is part of the Chile squad; so the potential remains for all three Red Devils represented at the Copa America 2015 to feature in the final.
