Alexis Sanchez earns 100th cap for Chile

Alexis Sanchez is keeping it 100.

On Wednesday, by virtue of taking the pitch in Chile's fixture against Colombia in the Copa America Centenario semi-finals, Sanchez tallied his 100th cap for La Roja, joining an exclusive group of which Claudio Bravo is the only other member.

Of Sanchez's 100 appearances, 89 have come as a starter, while the other 11 came as a substitute. He entered Chile's semi-final against Colombia having tallied 8,003 minutes, and, should La Roja achieve victory, it will mark the 53rd fixture that the team has won in which he played. His international debut came on April 27, 2006, when he featured in Chile's 1-0 victory over New Zealand in a friendly.

Sanchez, who boasts 34 international goals to his name, is only three goals away from equalling Chile's all-time scoring record, held by none other than Marcelo Salas, who found the back of the net 37 times for La Roja.
