Alexis Mac Allister and Argentina lifted the Copa America after overcoming Luis Diaz's Colombia.

Mac Allister bolstered his medal collection overnight by helping La Albiceleste register a 1-0 victory after extra-time in the final.

Both Liverpool players were starters for their countries as Lautaro Martinez's 112th-minute goal eventually decided the showpiece at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami.

Mac Allister featured for 97 minutes in what was his fifth start of the tournament, while the ever-present Diaz was substituted at the interval of extra-time.

The win means Argentina retain their Copa America crown and have now won it for a record 16th time.
