Chile, as the holder of the Copa America 2015 and the anniversary Copa America 2016, represented CONMEBOL and South America in the Confederations Cup 2017. This event would be held for the last time as FIFA decided it was time to create something different.<\/p>\n

In the Confederations Cup 2017, one year before the World Cup, participated Russia as host country, the world champion Germany, the European champion Portugal, the champion of North and Central America Mexico, the champion of Africa Cameroon, the champion of Oceania New Zealand as well as Chile as the South American champion.<\/p>\n

The \"rookie\" Chile was in Group B where they beat Cameroon 2-0 and drew 1-1 with Germany and with Australia 1-1, too. Thus, it qualified as second with 5 points behind the first Germany.<\/p>\n

In the semifinal, Chile faced Portugal and after 0-0 of 90 minutes and extra time, they qualified for the final with 0-3 on penalties. In the final in St. Petersburg, Chile faced Germany again. A huge mistake of the Chilean defense gave Stindl the opportunity to score and so with 1-0 Germany won the trophy.<\/p>\n

Chile wore a very beautiful and simple jersey made by Nike. The same jersey was worn last year when Chile participated in the anniversary Copa America in the USA for the celebration 100 years of the event. On the sleeves are the patches of the tournament and on the chest, under the coat of arms, are written the details of the match (date, city and opposing teams). Charles Ar\u00e1nguiz was a key member of the team in that tournament and played in the final until the 81\u2019 minute when he was replaced by Edson Puch.<\/p>\n
