Chile's Alexis Sanchez named Copa America Golden Ball winner, Bravo best GK

Chile's dramatic capture of the Copa America Centenario trophy on Sunday night was quickly followed by word of more hardware falling into the hands of La Roja.

Striker Alexis Sanchez was awarded the tournament's Golden Ball award as top player, while his colleague Eduardo Vargas took home the Golden Boot as the Copa's leading scorer with six goals.


La Roja's triumph was capped by the Golden Glove award for top goalkeeper going to Claudio Bravo, who saved Argentina's final spot kick in Sunday's penalty-kick shootout at MetLife Stadium.


Argentina did take away one gong from a painful evening in the Meadowlands, as La Albiceleste won the Copa's Fair Play award. The Best XI was made up exclusively of Chile and Argentina players.
