Aránguiz and Chile miss out on group win

At the Copa America in Brazil, Chile and Charles Aránguiz lost top spot in Group C in the final match: In the early hours of Tuesday, La Roja, having already qualified for the quarter-finals, lost 1-0 to record winners Uruguay leaving the Sky Blues top of the table.

The only goal of the game in front of 58,000 spectators at the Maracana Stadium in Rio de Janeiro was scored by Edison Cavani (Paris Saint Germain) on 82 minutes. Charles Aránguiz played the whole game in the centre of a four-man midfield and he produced a good performance – however the Werkself number 20 was unable to provide an assist as he had done in the previous two matches. The defeat meant titleholders Chile ended up with one point less than Uruguay and thereby go through to the last eight as group runners-up. La Roja will face Colombia on Saturday (29 June, 01.00 CET) after they won Group B with three wins ahead of Argentina, Paraguay and Qatar.

Lamti watches 1-1 draw from the bench

After Aránguiz, Jonathan Tah (U21 Euros) and Leon Bailey (Gold Cup), Mark Lamti – as the fourth Black and Red player – started a tournament on Monday night. At the Africa Cup (21 June to 19 July in Egypt), the Bayer 04 U19 player was in the squad for his home country Tunisia in the first match in Group E that ended in a 1-1 draw with Angola. Lamti, who trained with the Werkself senior squad last season under the watchful eyes of head coach Peter Bosz and surprisingly made his full international debut for Tunisia at the start of June, was on the bench for the World Cup participants of 2016 for the duration of the match. Tunisia play Mali in the second group match on Friday (20 June, 16.30 CET).
