ASN Morning Read: It's Raining, It's Pouring
Mother nature erupts during the second Copa America Centenario semifinal, but the game must go on. You know what they always say about soccer: two teams play 90 minutes and the Chileans win, right?
- Colombia and Chile played a ridiculous game, with the Chileans coming out on top after a lengthy rain delay: "Severe thunderstorms that passed through the Chicago area saw a weather delay imposed by tournament organizers that lasted more than two hours, with fans instructed to seek shelter. It made for a bizarre night. When play resumed after halftime, it was Chile that coped more readily with the conditions.
- That's pretty good:
