Hosts Chile cruised past Bolivia 5-0 at the Copa America to finish top of Group A and ensure they remain in the capital Santiago for their quarter-final.
Midfielder Charles Aranguiz scored twice and Arsenal
striker Alexis Sanchez grabbed his first goal of the tournament in a one-sided
encounter at the national stadium.
Full-back Gary Medel added a fourth, Ronald Raldes
scored an own-goal and Sanchez hit the woodwork twice against a Bolivia side
that offered little in the way of resistance.
Despite
their defeat, Bolivia finished second in the group and also progress to the
last eight.
Ecuador, who beat Mexico 2-1 in the day's other match,
will have to wait for other results to see if they go through, while Mexico,
who came to the Copa with an understrength side, are eliminated.
