Canada played out a dour goalless Copa America draw with 10-man Chile to claim second place in Group A and progress to the quarter-finals, while the Chileans finished third to exit in the group stage for the first time since 2004.

The draw moved Canada up to four points in Group A, five behind leaders Argentina, who had already qualified for the quarter-finals. Two-times champions Chile ended with two points and Peru finished bottom with one.

The quarter-final will be Canada’s first ever knock-out Copa America game.

Chile, who needed to win and have other results go their way, had their uphill task made even harder after Gabriel Suazo was shown a second yellow card in the 27th minute for bringing down Richie Laryea.
