In a thrilling and historic match, Argentina has emerged as the champion of the 2021 Copa América, defeating the defending champions Brazil with a score of 1-0. The victory marks Argentina's first major title since 1993 and gives Lionel Messi his first senior international trophy.
The game was played in the legendary Maracanã Stadium in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in front of a passionate crowd. Argentina's lone goal was scored by winger Ángel di Maria in the 22nd minute. The goal came after a beautiful assist from Messi, who played a defense-splitting pass that allowed di Maria to run onto the ball and chip it over Brazilian goalkeeper Ederson.
Argentina held on to their slender lead for the rest of the match, thanks to a heroic defensive effort. Brazil had several chances to equalize, but the Argentine defense stood firm. Goalkeeper Emiliano Martínez made several crucial saves, including a point-blank stop from Brazilian forward Gabriel Barbosa in the second half.
