Argentina tops Mexico, faces Brazil in Copa America final

[SOCCER] Argentina beat Mexico by 3-0 on Wednesday and is set to play regional arch-rival Brazil on Sunday in the final of the Copa America in Venezuela.

 "Now we have to win the final, which is the only chain link that is missing," Argentine coach Alfio Basile said after the game.

 Of Wednesday's game, Basile noted that Argentina "once again won comfortably."

   Mexican coach Hugo Sanchez could not help but agree.

 "It is never nice to lose, but when the rival is better you have to admit it. They took more advantage of the circumstances and a distraction in the last minute of the first half changed the match," Sanchez said.
