Lionel Messi and Alexis Sanchez were arguably the two best players in this tournament
Formation

The team lines up in a 4-3-3 formation. We have Claudio Bravo in goal followed by the impressive backline consisting of Santiago Arias, Funes Mori, Gary Medel and Jean Beausejour.
The midfield is packed with star quality and it has Arturo Vidal and Jermaine Jones partnering in the centre of the pitch, with James Rodriguez playing in a slightly more attacking role.
The forward line up almost picks itself. We have the Golden Ball and Golden Boot winner Alexis Sanchez and Eduardo Vargas on the Left Wing and Striker positions respectively and they are joined by Lionel Messi who takes his customary position on the right-hand flank.
