Copa America 2015

Alexis.. So calm.

Irish. 🙁

That was no panenka, that was just a blatant troll down the middle.

Sanchez is the real deal isn't he? Potentially one of top 5 players in world football. Not because of his ability, just the sheer balls to take the last penalty like that, at home, to win your country's first major int. trophy. Ever.

higuain is such a loser. dont want him anywhere near our club

Mirth

Wtf there's another Copa America next year - will someone give Sanchez a summer off ffs.

I said a while back that I think he's more talented than Suarez, and I still think that's the case. Wenger will make him unplayable.

If we end up in a penalty shootout in the CL next season, we'll definitely win it.

It's unreal, during the match I was looking at wikipedia trying to work out how often the copa America is played. It isn't like a normal tournament where it's every X number of years. If you look at the dates of previous tournaments there is no system whatsoever, it's complete chaos 😆 They seem to organize it whenever they feel like it.

I'm certain he hasn't even reached his peak yet. Need to fill him up with horse tranq for a few days, can see him trying to swim back home tomorrow in the morning otherwise.

Not just with the years, but also with the teams. Japan has participated before for some reason, and they asked Spain (who declined) to join in the 2011 tournament. 😆

This is why Wenger is so peeved about it, as well as the new season schedule starting earlier.

They always invite two teams to make up numbers. There are only twelve sovereign countries in South America and Guyana and Suriname aren't part of CONMEBOL.

Yeah, and Jamaica this year. It all seems a bit nuts 😆

Class from Sanchez and obviously wasn't affected by missing against Brazil in the shootout in the World Cup. Also missed the one he took for us didn't he?

It will be interesting to see how the winning penalty will affect Sanchez with us this season.. I am hoping its the polar opposite than Gervinho's AFCON's final penalty miss that destroyed him with us.

arsedocmd

Hope he was carded for the shirtless celebration. That shit shouldn't fly. Grrr..

RC8, where you at man? Congrats!

Thanks!!!

When Alexis' penalty went in, I cried from football for the first time in 17 years.

Keeping this cup home meant so much to us, and to have Alexis finish it off of all people (former Colo-Colo and current Arsenal player) just made it so ridiculously sweet for me. This done my decade.

No Gervinho actually refused to take a penalty the bottler.

Alexis should be installed as our 1st choice PK taker. Would help his stats.

Goddam alexis. All he does is win. All arsenal will do is win as long as we have him. What a man
