(CNN Spanish) -
Argentina defeated Uruguay 1-0 in the Rio de la Plata classic and continued to consolidate in second place, close to the direct classification, with 28 points in the South American tie.
The goal came from Ángel Di María, who scored the goal that gave the Albiceleste the Copa América title.
The touchdown was a genius.
