The Canadians won 4-3 on penalties after their quarter-final at the AT&T Stadium ended 1-1 in regulation time in Arlington, Texas, on July 5.
Now, Marsch's men, playing in their first Copa America tournament, have a chance to reach the final if they can upset defending champions Argentina in New Jersey. Both sides faced off in the tournament opener, with Argentina triumphing 2-0.
"We're going to face the best team in the world in the semi-finals. We're excited about it. We're going to have to play the best game we can play against Argentina and even then it may not be enough," Marsch said.
Canada took the lead in the 13th minute when Jacob Shaffelburg steered home a Jonathan David cross, but wasted several chances to extend their advantage in the first half.
