Common card · No. 480709

The Copa América Centenario final was a soccer match that took place on June 26, 2016, to determine the winner of the Copa América Centenario. It was the 45th final of the Copa América, and it took place at MetLife Stadium at the Meadowlands Sports Complex in East Rutherford, New Jersey, outside of New York City. The match was contested by Argentina and Chile, making it a rematch of the 2015 final. At this tournament, Argentina and Chile soon faced each other in Group D, and the victory belonged to Argentina with a score of 2–1. But in the final, like the last one, Chile ultimately won on penalty kicks after a 0–0 draw, with Chile scoring only their last 4 penalties after going first and 2 Argentines missing. However, Chile won 4-2 this time. Forward Lionel Messi announced his retirement from international soccer after the defeat, having missed Argentina's first penalty in the shootout and suffering his third consecutive final defeat with Argentina, although he later reversed this decision.
