In one of its biggest soccer victories, the United States stunned Argentina 3-0 to win its group in the America Cup.

The U.S., on goals by Frank Klopas, Alexi Lalas and Eric Wynalda, handed Argentina its first loss of the tournament. Both teams advanced to the quarterfinals from Group C.

Earlier, Bolivia clinched a berth in the quarterfinals, overcoming a two-goal deficit to tie Chile 2-2.

In the second round, the United States will face Mexico. Argentina, a two-time World Cup champion, faces the other favorite, world champion Brazil.
