For Chile it was certainly a case of the former and though they were among the favourites to lift the Copa America trophy - doing so for the first time in their history - Saturday's penalty shoot-out win over Argentina was still an upset given their opponents performance in the semi-final.
However, few could argue that Jorge Sampaoli's side were not worthy winners over the course of the tournament. They started the strongest of the apparent big hitters in the group stages, with beaten finalists Argentina, along with Brazil and Colombia, struggling to exert any real dominance.
That Chile ended the tournament with four representatives in the WhoScored.com team of the tournament and Argentina boasted three suggests that they were certainly worthy finalists.
Claudio Bravo, Chile - WhoScored rating - 7.17
The 32-year old kept four clean sheets over Chile's six matches, including a crucial shut out in the final, saving an Ever Banega penalty in the shoot-out to hand Alexis Sanchez the chance to secure the trophy.
The Barcelona keeper was only forced into 13 saves during the tournament but no player to make more than two appearances averaged more successful claims from crosses per game (2.5).
