    • Chile
    • Peru
    • 90+4' All over! Valdivia booked in the dying seconds, but it doesn't matter as Chile complete the victory. A fine night for them and a 1-0 win.
    • 90+2' GOAL FOR CHILE! An own goal from a Peru shirt in a crowded box and that is surely the winning goal. Ball just hit off a white shirt after Libman had missed the corner. The goal has been given to Corzo of Peru.
    • 90+1' Ramos gets back to hack the ball away from Suazo. Looked a certain goal, but another near miss for Chile.
    • 89' Four minutes to be added to this one.
    • 88' Suazo looked like he was in for a free shot at goal, but Libman races from his line to clasp the ball. He is going to be in need of a bit of treatment.
    • 87' Chiroque tries to dance to the byline, but Estrada does enough to take the ball away from him. Chile can break.
    • 86' Estrada is booked for Chile for a late challenge on Ruidiaz.
    • 85' What a chance for Chile! Jimenez in plenty of space at the back post, but he can only head wide of goal. Chance gone.
    • 84' Valdivia, Sanchez and Carmona all to the fore, but Carmona's cross can only hit a white shirt. Corner for Chile.
    • 83' Looks like we going to finish at 0-0 unless somebody can come up with a bit of magic.
    • 82' Lovely control by Sanchez out wide, but he overhits the cross as the move breaks down. Libman hoists the ball down the pitch.
    • 81' Chiroque on the run for Peru before he is fouled. Libman is then booked for time-wasting in the Peru goal.
    • 80' Sanchez bangs the shot over the wall from 25 yards. Shot was always on the rise as it flies over the bar. Unlucky.
    • 79' Ponce wins himself space in the area from Estrada's long free-kick, but he can only glance the header wide of goal. Almost the breakthrough for Chile.
    • 78' Chiroque can't collect Ballon's pass in the area as Pinto picks up for Chile.
    • 77' Suazo sniffing around that Peru box, but Libman is on hand to race from his line to collect the loose ball.
    • 76' Medel arrives to take over from Silva for Chile.
    • 75' Ruidiaz tries to barge his way into the area, but Pinto is there to pick the loose ball up.
    • 74' Gonzales departs to be replaced by Carillio for Peru. Their third and final change of the match.
    • 73' Suazo is offside from Ponce's long ball up the park.
    • 72' Is there going to be a winner here? Won't be for lack of effort. Both teams trying to find that crucial opening goal.
    • 71' Valdivia has a go at the other end from distance, but the shot deflects up and over the bar and wide too.
    • 70' Chiroque with an execellent chance to tuck home the opener, but he cracks the ball wide of goal. A mishit really. Golden chance for Peru.
    • 69' Fine cross by Chiroque. Decent delivery is met by Ramos before Chile hack the ball out of play.
    • 68' Ponce have to dash back to concede a corner which Chiroque is going to throw into the area.
    • 67' Game has gone a bit flat at the moment as Sanchez's cross flies over the top of the head of Suazo and out of play.
    • 66' Guevara departs to be replaced by Lobaton.
    • 65' Ballon takes a dull one in a challenge with Valdivia, but no harm done and on we go.
    • 64' Jimenez gets the ball back from Suazo, but the cross is cleared by the white shirts.
    • 63' Valdivia seemed to be taken out of the action late, but the referee is content to wave play on.
    • 62' Jimenez goes for goal from distance, but he has cracked Suazo with the ball. Suazo deemed to be offside. End of attack.
    • 61' Sanchez is on for Fierro, for the record. What will happen now? Tempers really fraying out there.
    • 60' Jean Beausejour is also off the park for a bit of raising of the arms. So both teams down to 10 men. All a bit chaotic.
    • 59' A second yellow card for Carmona and he is off the park. Carmona off for raising his hands from what I can detect. Peru down to 10 men.
    • 58' Going to be a booking here. Bit of wrestling between the players after Ramos fouled Sanchez. Ramos is booked for that one.
    • 57' Sanchez and Jorge Valdivia are introduced for Chile. Perhaps these two changes could be what Chile need to make the breakthrough. Paredes is off to be replaced by Sanchez.
    • 56' Change coming here for Chile and the change is going to be the man they all want..here comes Alexis Sanchez.
    • 55' Guevara drills in the dead ball with some pace, but the free-kick flies straight through to Pinto in the Chile goal.
    • 54' Jimenez is penalised for a late foul on Gonzales.
    • 53' Guevara drives in the free-kick from out wide, but headed out by Ponce. Good clearing header.
    • 52' Chile again pick up the loose ball before Chiroque is fouled deep in the opposition half. Chance for Peru.
    • 51' Silva picks up the ball, but the Peru defence crowd him out. The white shirts continue to work incredibly hard to close down space.
    • 50' Change for Peru in the second half as Vilchez takes over from Acasiete.
    • 49' Ponce almost punished for letting a long ball hit the deck as Chiroque narrowly fails to collect the long ball.
    • 48' Chile certainly the more dominant side, but Peru working hard as Silva's shot from distance is charged down.
    • 47' Lovely cross from Jimenez to the back post, but Paredes could only head into the side netting. That was a real chance for Chile, but no goal.
    • 46' We are off and running for this second period. Peru start the second half.
    • 45+1' There goes the whistle for the end of the half. Chile have enjoyed the better moments, but we are level at 0-0.
    • 44' A minute to be added to the half.
    • 43' Ballon collides with Fierro. Late tackle, but no booking this time.
    • 42' All gone a bit quiet in the ground. Peru have had clean sheets in six of their past seven games.
    • 41' Corzo on the break for Peru, but the final pass is wasted as Pinto collects with ease.
    • 40' Ramos with a speculative diving header for Peru, but couldn't really control that as he dived to nod well away from goal.
    • 39' Ponce goes too soon and is deemed to be offside..another chance bites the dust for Chile. Peru will be happy to get to 0-0 level at the break.
    • 38' Chile have a free-kick chance here after Geuvara handled in the middle of the park.
    • 37' Suazo the latest man to take a tumble under pressure from Corzo, but again...never a penalty. Diving and more diving.
    • 36' Ponce lets Guevara's free-kick fly beyond him and Ballon almost turned that in at the back post. A mighty scare for Chile.
    • 35' Jimenez darts into the heart of the Peru area before taking a tumble. Was looking for a whistle, but never a penalty.
    • 34' Suazo mishits a volley in front of goal. Was a chance from Beausejour's cross, but mishits his effort as the ball flies wide of goal.
    • 33' Ruidiaz decides to try to luck from 30 yards out. Took one look at goal and went for it, but always swerving wide.
    • 32' Plenty of bodies back behind the ball for Peru, and plenty of bodies on the terracing supporting Chile it would appear.
    • 31' Fierro guilty of using a high boot after he challenged Ballon. Not happy with that decision.
    • 30' Another free-kick chance for Peru seconds later brings the same outcome as Guevara's delivery is dealt with by the Chile back line.
    • 29' Guevara hoists the ball into the box, but Chile have enough bodies back to deal with the danger.
    • 28' Peru earn a free-kick after Chiroque is fouled by Carmona. Peru with a chance here.
    • 27' Jimenez tries to get a shot in, but Ramos does enough to get his body in the way as Libman collects.
    • 26' Beausejour takes a tumble out wide. Revoredo alert to head out the cross from Fierro.
    • 25' Great run and shot by Chiroque of Peru, but he hits the side netting from 25 yards out.
    • 24' Chile with six changes, Peru with nine changes. That suggests both teams think four points will take them through to the last eight.
    • 23' More decent, surging play by Suazo as he wins Chile a corner. More Chile fans in here this evening as Libman punches out the corner.
    • 22' Suazo cracks the free-kick at goal, but he hits the wall and Peru can clear.
    • 21' Some lasers being flashed in the face of the Peru keeper Libman from the crowd. Never good to see that behaviour.
    • 20' Chile looking the more likely side at the moment. Meanwhile, Revoredo has conceded a free-kick on the edge of the box after fouling Jimenez. Chance for Chile.
    • 19' Revoredo is booked for a late challenge on Suazo. Bad tackle really. Rightly booked.
    • 18' Carmona tries to pick out Fierro, but he has overcooked that pass as the ball runs out of play.
    • 17' Corzo throws over an excellent little ball. Was far from the worst delivery in the world. Just flies wide of the Chile goal. Better play by Peru on the break.
    • 16' Great cross by Fierro, but Libman was on hand to claim the cross. Chile continue to flow nicely going forward.
    • 15' Chile looking the likelier side in these opening moments. Really going to for the jugular.
    • 14' Estrada bounds up the park before unleashing a shot from distance that flies inches wide. Some more impressive play from Chile it must be said.
    • 13' Suazo with the shot! Deflects off a white shirt, but inches wide. No luck for Chile in front of goal.
    • 12' Chile will win the group if they avoid defeat in this game. That would mean they avoid Argentina in the last eight.
    • 11' Beausejour almost sets up Parades. Fine run and cross, but Chile can't get the ball over the line. So close to the opening goal.
    • 10' Peru try to break, but Ponce is back to snuff out the threat of Chiroque. Fine tackle.
    • 9' Several changes for Chile this evening, but the first yellow card of the evening goes to Corzo for a late challenge there.
    • 8' Looks like a cold night. Everybody well wrapped up. Guevara and Suazo crash into each other in the centre of the park, but on we go.
    • 7' Carmona gets a talking to from the referee after a fairly robust challenge with Beausejour.
    • 6' Great run and shot by Chiroque, but he fires the ball narrowly over. Lovely piece of skill from distance.
    • 5' Beausejour of Birmingham throws over a fine cross into the heart of the Peru box, but Libman is quick to collect.
    • 4' Acasiete with the long ball forward for Peru, but the ball flies out of play before Suazo fails to collect the loose ball at the other end.
    • 3' Fine tackle by Ponce to thwart the run of a white jersey. Peru certainly looking vibrant on the break.
    • 2' Fierro makes a strong surging run up a flank as Chile begin the match on the offensive.
    • 1' Chile in red get us off and running in this one.
    • 11.12 Teams out on the pitch. Peru in white, Chile in red.
    • 11.10 Good evening and welcome to live covergae of Chile v Peru from the Copa America. Both these sides know that a win will be good enough to claim a spot in the last eight as Group C winners.
