Copa America game thread

There's an endpoint in sight in an NBA game. These guys were going to start collapsing soon.
Yeah, that's the point. After 120 minutes it's either that or they play again tomorrow.
And both Messi and Vidal miss!!
Funny, you can often tell by the players face how they'll do. That was not good body language.
I've never understood why they don't have the penalties in a shootout taken from a few yards further out. That way, it's not just a guessing game and the keeper actually has a chance of saving it if he reacts perfectly upon contact.
Losing in penalties is the worst possible outcome. Better to be Mexico or the US and know you just sucked, then to lose that way.
Of course, the guys who've been at it for 120 minutes can't keep playing, but each side has a full team worth of substitutes that never play. I'd rather see a half with the second framers than penalties. Not that that's an exciting option.
I figured the ref would just keep red carding guys out to implement his own version of breaking ties - 10-10 then 9-9 then 8-8 and so on until someone scores.

Messi to his mates in the locker room after the game:
Remember this feeling. Never let it happen again.
