QF Colombia beat Peru 4-2 via penalty shoot-out

Arsenal goalkeeper David Ospina was the hero as Colombia slayed their penalty shoot-out jinx to defeat Peru and advance to the semi-finals of the Copa America Centenario on Friday. June 17,2016

Ospina pulled off a superb save deep into injury time to deny Peru a goal before saving a spot-kick from Peru defender Miguel Trauco in the shoot-out to clinch a nailbiting win for Colombia.

A largely disappointing quarter-final in front of 79,194 fans at East Rutherford's MetLife Stadium was settled in penalties after the two sides finished 90 minutes deadlocked at 0-0.

After Colombia drilled their first three penalties, the tide turned in their favor when Trauco saw his effort blocked by Ospina.

Sebastian Perez then scored Colombia's fourth penalty to put his 4-2 up and when Peru's Christian Cueva blasted his spot-kick over the bar Colombia were through.

Victory was especially sweet for Colombia, who had exited the competition last year at the same stage to Argentina.

Colombia will now play either Mexico or Chile in the semi-finals in Chicago next Wednesday
