Vuoso the hero as Mexico, Chile draw 3-3

Matias Vuoso netted a 66th minute equalizer as Mexico held on to draw host Chile 3-3 in the Estadio Nacional in Group A of the Copa America.

Chile went into the game as favorites but Mexico twice took the lead in the first half and gave a gritty performance. The result leaves El Tri needing a victory against Ecuador on Friday to guarantee a place in the quarterfinals.

It was a disappointing night for Chile in front of its home fans, but La Roja will reserve their place in the knockout rounds with a tie on Friday against Bolivia.
