VINA DEL MAR, Chile (AP) -- Argentina defeated Colombia 5-4 on penalty kicks after a 0-0 tie Friday night and will play Brazil or Paraguay next week in the Copa America semifinals.
Following a scoreless regulation that Argentina dominated, the game went straight to a shootout and Carlos Tevez converted the winning kick after his team squandered a pair of earlier chances to end the match. Lucas Biglia shot wide in the shootout and Marcos Rojo hit the crossbar.
Argentina is trying to win its first major title since the 1993 Copa America.
