With the tournament in Sanchez's native Chile, the 26-year-old has been able to relax at home between games.
Making the most of his impressive karaoke set-up, Sanchez has shared his passionate interpretation of the 2011 single "More Than This" on his Instagram page.
The song is by no means one of 1D's biggest hits, charting at number 86 in the UK Singles charts - showing the depth of Alexis' passion for the loveable boyband.
The sentiment of the song could not be more relevant to Chile's ongoing Copa America campaign, with the host nation desperate to progress from the semi-final stage to take the title for the first time in their history.
Chile play Peru in the first semi-final before potentially facing either Brazil or Argentina in the tournament decider on Saturday 4th July.
