The competition is already on its way; it started on June 20th and will go on until July 14th. The competition this season is hosted by the United States. The defending champions, Argentina have started well with a win over Canada in group A.

Which team are you expecting to win this competition this time around? Argentina or Brazil?

I'm rooting for Argentina. I see Argentina as a better and coordinated team than Brazil. Brazil has the squad no doubt but there team play is not on an A-level. I have watched both teams play and I will tell you that Brazil is still struggling to find it's rhythm.

You will not be the only person to still have doubts about the Brazilian team, even though they have lots of talents in the team. Even one of the legends of Brazil, Ronaldinho, has blasted the national team, saying that he is not going to watch any of their games.

One underrated team that can still win the competition is Uruguay; they are at the top of their group with the convincing 3-1 win they had against Panama, with Darwin Nunez scoring in that game.

Colombia will play Paraguay later today.

It might be too early to say Brazil are looking rather very great tonight, especially due to how much of an underdog their opponent are consider to be, even just on paper, but Brazil have looked really full of life in this match, they've dominated the match for the entire first 45 minutes against Costa Rica. I think Brazil might have what it takes this time around to go very deep into the tournament, or possibly even winning, but as I've said, it's just the first game and there is still a long way to go. Despite failing to score in the first half, I think they should still win this match with some relative ease, although Costa Rica are defending pretty well, having more than 70% of their players behind the ball at all times whenever Brazil is in possession of the ball.

Anything can happen in football via the underrated team winning a league trophy. However, I don't see Uruguay winning the Copa America League trophy over Argentina or Brazil.

Uruguay having a fantastic 3-1 win against Panama in the first leg group match doesn't guarantee them the better contender for the Copa America trophy. Remember the league match just started, so many matches are to be played before reaching the finals. Uruguay will face tough teams before their way to the finals. They can be eliminated along the way or make it through. Who knows.

Colombia won Paraguay by 2:1, yesterday

I also can see past Brazil or Argentina winning this tournament, but there are still doubts being casted over Brazil chances and potentials, especially due to their first match result. I think that's just one match, and they didn't play awfully if you ask me, the goals just wouldn't come.

Argentina have continued their 100% record with well fought victory over Chile, despite being the dominating team, they had to wait until the 88th minute of the match to finally find away to break through the impregnable Chilean defense, they've earned their ticket for the knockout stage.

Not only continue with 100% winning record but also Argentina keep make clean sheet in last two consecutives match without conceded any one goal yet.
Just bit weakness how difficulty for Argentina scoring goals and waiting until 88th minutes before the substitutes player Lautaro Martinez scoring his second goals in Copa America 2024.
Argentina star players Lionel Messi still can't scoring goal yet although playing until 90 minutes, its second matches for him can't scoring goal although in the first match had contribution with two assists for Julian Alvarez and Lautaro Martinez goal.

Messi is more of a play maker and you should also know that these two stars Messi and Ronaldo in various ongoing competitions have not scored any goal but they ha e made good assist. What I see is that they are creating chance for the young ones to score and at the same time acting like a role model to the younger players. I believe that before any of these two countries will be eliminated out of the competition, they will score.

In today's matchs,, from the noise it has, no one is still in a clear position to assume leadership due to its good play... so anyone could be moving to the second phase and that is defined tonight.

So for the sake of football it would be good to see Jamaica winning...  8)

Mexico and Venezuela is unpredictable in my opinion, even though football history favors Mexico.

But if you look at performance, there is no way but to keep Ecuador ahead. In the meantime, 37 minutes have passed and Ecuador is leading 1-0. But there is still plenty of time to level the game. If they can do that then an opportunity may be created for them. Ecuador's Kasey Palmer scored the first goal in the 14th minute, but neither team scored after that. Jamaica is trying. According to the match summary, we see that Ecuador is in a good position.

The match indeed turned out to have an unexpected outcome as Venezuela emerged victorious, Mexico were the better team, maybe not so significantly because Venezuela did had a couple of chances of their own too, but a spot kick early in the second half was enough to see Venezuela claim 3 points, Mexico were also awarded a penalty very close to the end of the match, Venezuela just would not be denied the win, and they earned it every point! They literally had multiple bodies on the line and defended the lone goal with all they had, especially during in the final 10 minutes of the match.

Mexico do not find himself in a good position in group B because of the loss to Venezuela today. Mexico will they have an opportunity To make sure they qualify when they play against Ecuador and battle for the position of second. Venezuela already has everything easy because I think they will be able to win Jamaica easily and qualify for the next round of the competition.

Panama play against USA next, It is an opportunity for USA to top group C.

United States has a red card against Panama and it is going to be harder for them to win than odds suggested but they scored first goal anyway.
Uruguay is playing later against Bolivia and they are one of the biggest favorites to win this competition.
Cavani has retired but Uruguay but they have other great players and some of them play for US clubs.

Yet another drama unfolded in the Copa America, USA also lost by 2 goals to 1 against Panama and that has blow the group wide open, it's going to be an interesting final group stage game as all team will be desperate for a win, and even the favorite team now stand a risk of getting eliminated too.

I feel like Panama was playing dirty and aggressive in todays match vs USA. I don't think that USA was expected to win the game, but some pretty rough play by Panama made it really hard for the USA to build any momentum.

And USA played right into their hands after going down to 10 men very early into the game, they then had to become more conservative and employ a damage control tactics, it didn't turn out well for them at the end of the day. The biggest task await in the final group game against Uruguay who won convincingly against Bolivia 5-0 today. USA are in tough spot now because, Panama would be expected to get all 3 points against Bolivia and should USA then fail to win, they'll be eliminated. That'd be quite a bummer because I had high hopes for them coming into this tournament.

Without a doubt, the Ecuadorians have a better game than Jamaica, even if the match had ended differently, but the truth is that Jamaica is a good team, in fact in Concacaf they have always had interesting disputes with the United States and Mexico, the star teams of that confederation.

It was a result that was a coin toss, it did not surprise me, in fact at the betting level I opted for the tie and at the Pool level I put Vzla.

It is very true, the fans are targeting Argentina and Brazil, even Colombia, but the interesting bet, I repeat interesting, is Uruguay. As you mention...

USA's best chance was against Panama and Bolivia; it will not be against Uruguay. I see them as a thing that I've already lost out on in this competition because if they could not defeat Panama, I do not see them doing anything against Uruguay. From this group, I believe that it will be Uruguay and Panama that will progress to the next level and not the United States of America, which is very disappointing because, just like you, I also had high hopes for them.

Their chances could also probably have been higher, if just like the the Euros 2024 there were slots for the best placed 3rd teams, however for the Copa America there is no such thing, they'd be heading directly to the Quarter Finals right after the groups stages. Maybe all hope isn't lost just yet, there is still pretty much a lot that can happen.

Columbia vs Costa Rica is the next game on board, getting started in less than 10 minutes.

This was a lucky win for Panama against USA and I could not believe hoe they managed to turn around result in second half.
Both teams got ref cards and Panama is now going to be without their best player, but they are playing next against one of the worst teams in Copa America.
Maybe now we see new sensation from Bolivia  ;D

Dirty and aggressive football is a normal thing in these Copa competition to anyone who watches them regularly. You will even notice this aggression from south American players when they play in other leagues.

Brazil tunneled past Paraguay scoring four goals and Vini Jr having two of the four. Brazil are second in the group and will face the group leaders Colombia next in a bid to see who finishes the group D in a more favorable position theoretically.

Have difficult position for United State if want qualify to onock out round must securing three points against Uruguay on last match. Curently United State national team have three points and the same with Panama get advantage on last match facing Bolivia.
Uruguay have qualified to knock out round and not sure they will loss three pints on last match, indeed have many rotation because Uruguay have qualified but they want keep defend the unbeaten record in phase group.

I think they have good chance against Canada but home supporters will big advantage for Canada.

USA got eliminated last night, and that exactly was they deserve to be honest, their performance were rather awful and there was no sense of urgency or any form zealousness from them, you would expect them to do better against an Uruguay side that have qualified already. Lucky enough for Panama they were able to do their own part of the task by getting a win against Bolivia.

Uruguay is one of the best teams in this Copa America so they could not expect much better result, but I think USA missed their chance against Panama after getting early red card.
They can try again in FIFA World Cup 2026, they are one of the host countries with Canada and Mexico.

Quite unfortunate for Uruguay because despite finishing at top of their group they will be facing one of the toughest teams in the competition, Brazil, I don't think they'd love to face Brazil, at least not as the first team in the knockout stages, but Brazil couldn't win against Columbia so they finished 2nd place in the group and as such would have place against Uruguay in the quarter finals, maybe it's an advantage for Uruguay though, since Brazil aren't playing the best football just yet, if they can face them now rather than when Brazil find their best form.

I dont think this Brazil is the best team in Copa America, they didnt play very good in most matches, and they are now going to miss Vinicius against Uruguay.
Last year Uruguay won in H2H World Cup qualifications and I think they can eliminate Brazil if they continue playing good and dont get scared from Brazil.
Anything can happen in this match but my bet is on Uruguay to go in next stage.

I would agree that Brazil are way far from being a good team right now, not even the top 3 best team in the Copa America right now, and Vinicius Jr. suspension will only make things tougher for them, but it still Brazil we are talk about and they just can't be underestimated or undermined because they are still pretty much capable of winning any game against any team.

Before the start of Brazil's match against Colombia, Brazil entered the field with two missions. One was a win against Colombia and the other was a match without yellow cards for four of their players. If Vinicius,  Eder Militao, Lucas Pagueta and Wendell receive a yellow card, Brazil will not have that player in the quarter-finals. Despite that thought, Vinicius received a yellow card. It will be difficult to dream of winning the Copa America title with the team due to the poor condition of Brazil in this session.

Vinicius is good, but not at the level yet where he is not replaceable in the Brazilian team. There are many talented players who could take up that position. I would first single out Martinelli, but I do not think he is fit enough and will be the first choice for the Brazilian coach. There will be no second chance if Brazil fail to win their next game, They will surely come under criticism if they are not able to get to the finals.

I would agree that Brazil are way far from being a good team right now, not even the top 3 best team in the Copa America right now, and Vinicius Jr. suspension will only make things tougher for them, but it still Brazil we are talk about and they just can't be underestimated or undermined because they are still pretty much capable of winning any game against any team.
Anything can happen when eliminations come in competitions like this.
One advantage for Brazil against Uruguay is their H2H record, they won 7 times, and Uruguay only 3 times.
Lets first see all other teams that go in next stage, Brazil vs Uruguay is the last match played in Copa America quarter finals.

Interesting odds for this match: https://sportsbet.io/sports/event/soccer/international/copa-america/uruguay-v-brazil-6684c38f3b5f15000192750d

Quite unfortunate for Uruguay because despite finishing at top of their group they will be facing one of the toughest teams in the competition, Brazil, I don't think they'd love to face Brazil, at least not as the first team in the knockout stages, but Brazil couldn't win against Columbia so they finished 2nd place in the group and as such would have place against Uruguay in the quarter finals, maybe it's an advantage for Uruguay though, since Brazil aren't playing the best football just yet, if they can face them now rather than when Brazil find their best form.
I dont think this Brazil is the best team in Copa America, they didnt play very good in most matches, and they are now going to miss Vinicius against Uruguay.
Last year Uruguay won in H2H World Cup qualifications and I think they can eliminate Brazil if they continue playing good and dont get scared from Brazil.
Anything can happen in this match but my bet is on Uruguay to go in next stage.

Before the start of Brazil's match against Colombia, Brazil entered the field with two missions. One was a win against Colombia and the other was a match without yellow cards for four of their players. If Vinicius,  Eder Militao, Lucas Pagueta and Wendell receive a yellow card, Brazil will not have that player in the quarter-finals. Despite that thought, Vinicius received a yellow card. It will be difficult to dream of winning the Copa America title with the team due to the poor condition of Brazil in this session.

There is something to highlight, Brazil lacked to prove itself, but incredibly in the end where they should have given Brazil about 5 more minutes they would have beaten Colombia, for me there was no doubt about that, the bad thing is that Brazil reacted at the end and not from the beginning, and that gives a bad taste in the mouths of the fans, in Brazil they do not see the selection in a good light because it is not forceful, but I do not believe that Brazil is like that because it is bad, no, it is that the other teams, the other countries have raised their level of football, and they do not give anything, they do not rule anything, you have to realize how Venezuela was the one that eliminated Mexico, because they were the ones that did it, perfect score, it was the only team that did well in its group, when everyone considered it to be cinderella.

The Brazilian team needs to take their very next game very seriously because Argentina almost lost their game today to Ecuador, who took the game to extra time with a late equalizer, and it means that Brazil can also lose to Uruguay if they do not play with the pressure from the beginning of the game.

Lionel Messi missed the first penalty for Argentina, but luckily, Argentina still won.

Argentina managed to get in next stage but only after penalty shootout against Ecuador!
I expected nice clean sheet but Ecuador found a formula how to play against Argentina, but penalties are like lottery and Messi missed one.
Venezula vs Canada is next and winner is going to play with Argentina, this is a great motivation.

Canada won the game on penalties and is the next team to face Argentina in the next round of the competition. I am not expecting the same opposition that Ecuador gave to Argentina from Canada, and I think that is an easy pass for Argentina to the finals of the competition.
The chances for Canada to provide a shocking result are very slim.

Colombia against Panama next, Colombia should easily make it through.

I saw Canada won on penalties, but I was secretly supporting Venezula and I had 2:1 for them in one prediction pool :(
Argentina should release full rage against Canada after below average performance in last match against Ecuador.
Odds are heavily on Argentina side but I always say that anything can happen if good team have a bad day.

I think both team played well and end of the game result were equal. So make the game for Penalties. And Canada won the match. Good luck for Canada.

But next match will very tuff for Canada because next match will be held with Argentina. We all know Argentina team are very strong team. And there playing wrold famous ★player Lionel Andres Messi. So i am also think next match will be very difficult for Canada team.

In today's Uruguay Brazil match, Brazil missed many chances. Firstly, they failed to score as many times as they went, secondly, after receiving a red card in the 76 minute, the player of the Uruguay team left the field. At that time, Brazil has a big chance to beat the team of 10 people. But they failed in that too, they failed every time they attacked. It's a shame they couldn't beat any of the 10 man teams. In the end, penalties started as neither team could score, even there the goalkeeper of the Brazilian team could not stop a single goal, at that time the Uruguay team scored 4 goals and the players of the Brazilian team also missed the goal, they managed to score only 2 goals. In the end, the Brazilian team lost 4-2 to Uruguay and left the quarter-finals.

Huge impact after Vinicius Jr absent make Brazil difficulty scoring any goal although has great chance with Uruguay played 10 players since 76th minutes. Brazil loss trough penalty kick and some mistake made after the penalty kicker not experience players and two Brazil players miss with penalty kick.
After Brazil eliminating from quarter final its over the final dreaming between Brazil vs Argentina, seems interested final between Argentina vs Uruguay but depend each teams result in the semifinal round with Argentina get easily opponent team against Canada and Uruguay will get difficult opponent team against Colombia.

Today's Brazil vs Uruguay match was not enjoyable at all. It seemed like the game was dead. The pass accuracy of the players was very bad. There were no exciting moments, neither team was aggressive. I felt like I was watching a neighborhood football match. Brazil supporters did not expect such a game from a champion team like Brazil. When Uruguay went down to 10 men late in the game, the Brazilians had a great chance to take control of the match, but they failed to do so. Then the game reaches Tribeca. Brazil forced home from quarter finals due to unprofessional play by Brazilian players.

The competition is already on its way; it started on June 20th and will go on until July 14th. The competition this season is hosted by the United States. The defending champions, Argentina have started well with a win over Canada in group A.

Which team are you expecting to win this competition this time around? Argentina or Brazil?
to me both country you mention will not carry it, I give it to France.

Your bet played out fine, and Uruguay has qualified for the next round all because they won Brazil in a shootout 4-2 despite the red card given to their player in the 74 minutes of play. Surprisingly, Brazil didn't use the red-given Uruguay as an advantage to score a single goal.

However, thumps up to Uruguay for holding Brazil to a drawing match of 120 minutes of play before the penalty shootout that gave them the winning 4-2 against Brazil

I think Urugay or Colombia can stop Argentina, they both played very good in this Copa America and they have the quality to do it.
Last year for World Cup qualification Uruguay was better than Argentina and they won in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Messi is not in his prime form now but I am not counting him off that easy.

The Brazil national team is a big disappointment in this competition because they were unable to go far as expected by their fans due to poor performance from the beginning of the competition till they got kicked out yesterday by Uruguay in a penalty shootout. The game was too aggressive and very boring because both teams were not after playing a professional football but to play a rough football on the pitch. These current Brazil team is the worst that I have seen and thru need to wake up and put in good performance to keep the country football reputation. After Neymar left the national team, the team looks like shit.

If somebody had told me earlier that Brazil will not win this match I wouldn't have agreed because right from beginning of history of football Brazil has always been known to be one of the best country in terms of football performance but it was quite unfortunate that they were not actually consistent on that match which reduces there chances of wining Uruguay.

Though I'm not actually saying that Uruguay is not a strong team but my point is that Brazil has more than enough experience players to win the match, however I seriously commend on the performance of Uruguay because is not easy to have a Red card and was still able to manage and draw the match, actually I can imagine the kind of happiness they would have by qualifying for another round.

If it is Uruguay, it will be a very difficult game to predict, these teams risk their skin in those matches.

If it is Colombia, I would say that the Argentina factor weighs a lot, Colombians suffer whenever they play against Argentina.

What I can deduct from football matches of late is that the dominance of big teams we know in football is beginning to reduce, and we can have them lose in any match.

Brazil was the defending champion of Copa America and they gave a disappointing performance in this year's Copa America. Many people are blaming the coach for it because they think, he's too old to coach and manage the Brazilian team. I don't know how true can this be, whether it is the case for the Brazilian football authority to look into, a change of coach

I will never blame the coach. Because a coach can never improve a player's field performance. I'm not denying that a coach has important  role to play in a team but players must give their best to help the team win. In recent times, I have not seen anyone in the Brazil team that the team can rely on to ensure victory for the team. The fact that former champions Brazil did not win against Colombia and Uruguay may seem unbelievable to many fans, but it is true. No big team can hold its position all the time and Brazil's performance at the moment is showing that.

Yeah, I would quite agree Colombia indeed look like the best team that can actually stop Argentina right, especially with James Rodriguez turning back the hands of time and playing like he's at the peak of his career, he's played 4 matches in the tournament and have already won the Player Of The Match (POTM) award on 3 occasions, nothing has been short of a spectacular performance so far from him in this tournament.

The Brazilian team needs to take their very next game very seriously because Argentina almost lost their game today to Ecuador, who took the game to extra time with a late equalizer, and it means that Brazil can also lose to Uruguay if they do not play with the pressure from the beginning of the game.

Lionel Messi missed the first penalty for Argentina, but luckily, Argentina still won.

Well, this is getting better, Brazil was eliminated by the Charrúas, today they have to face Canada, who for me will have to go that far, there is no other way, of course sometimes unexpected things happen in football, but it is very very likely that Argentina will win.

@LUCKMCFLY How did you experience that defeat in your area? I know you are from a very football-loving area, that result is a shame, but I believe on the other hand, that Colombia has shown how the teams big they beat those teams with dubious play, 5 goals to zero, Hey Argentina, be careful...waiting to:Uruguay Brazil, a great game...but Uruguay wins...

Well, what can I say my great friend, there were many tears of a man (including myself) however, what matters and I Believe the only Objective is that Venezuela manages to qualify for the World Cup, on the other hand, that same day I went to Colombia (Cúcuta) and that was something else, another world, the celebration was impressive, the 5 goals that they Conceded to Panamá was something that gave Colombia a lot of security , now against Uruguay is something else , it is one of the best Matches that are coming , unfortunately it is Tomorrow, today is Argentina against Canada.

Argentina have already taken the lead here in the first half through a goal from Julian Alvarez who showed a great awareness inside the box and was able to beat the Canadian goalkeeper.

It's going to be a mountain to climb now for Canada to even get back on level terms let alone being able to try and turn it around, but I guess we'll see if Argentina can further increase their advantage.

It was a one-sided game for a while, but Argentina scored a goal after 22 minutes.  It doesn't look like Canada can win the match as Argentina are a very good team and they have already conceded a goal.  Di Maria had a great chance to score but unfortunately it didn't happen.  Argentina is currently attacking Canada very well.  40 minutes passed but Canada still couldn't score.  But with the way Canada is attacking, it doesn't look like they can win the match.  Messi had a very good attack but no goal.  Again Messi gave a short but unfortunately it didn't actually score.  Current Canada also had a good scoring chance but they unfortunately couldn't score.  Playing like this has become funner but Canada has not scored a single goal.

Argentina scored another goal after 51 minutes.  Currently, Argentina has scored two goals and Canada has yet to score a single goal.  He got another ball and Alvarez made a good attack but unfortunately couldn't score.  Argentina had a total of 10 attacks but conceded two goals.  And Canada had a total of 4 attacks so far but unfortunately they couldn't score a single goal.  The way Canada is playing it doesn't look like they will win the match as their attack is very weak.  It's been almost 87 minutes and Canada still hasn't scored a goal.  And now Canada had a very good attack but Martinez saved the ball very well and Canada had another good attack but they didn't succeed.  And with that, Argentina beat Canada by 2 goals and went to the Copa America final.

The Messi goal was able guarantee Argentina their spot in the final, I think Canada should be heading out of the the tournament with their heads held up high because nobody would have expected them to come this, even a few people could have anticipated that they'd make it out of the group stage, especially since they played Argentina in their first group match and lost the game, I also thought was the beginning and the end of their journey in this tournament, so to have made it to the semi finals is literally some worth being proud as a team for them.

Argentina really put Canada under a lot of pressure with their attacking play today. Canada committed a total of 15 fouls in this match, while Argentina committed just 5 fouls. Canada piled on the pressure from Julian Alvarez's first goal on 23 minutes, and Lionel Messi added another goal on 51 minutes, to conform Argentina's victory. Canada attacked many times in this match but none of the attacks worked for them. The Canadian team could not survive in front of the great performance of every player in Argentina and the amazing goal keeping of Emiliano Martínez. And the Argentina team confirmed their position in the final by winning this match.

For my tastes Footballers, Canada lacked at least two goals to concede, I had them 4-0 in a Pool that I am playing,anyway ARG managed to qualify as expected.

I saw two plays by Messi that at any other time would not have failed, we are definitely seeing the last matches of this great footballer... I don't know if these remaining couple of years will give him another chance world cup (another topic=)

Uruguay-Colombia, is the great game of these semifinals, I don't bet on either of them, but I do have a prediction, be careful, two different things, so, a draw in regulation time, and I think that the luck of the penalties favors Uruguay .

Argentina have already taken the lead here in the first half through a goal from Julian Alvarez who showed a great awareness inside the box and was able to beat the Canadian goalkeeper.

It's going to be a mountain to climb now for Canada to even get back on level terms let alone being able to try and turn it around, but I guess we'll see if Argentina can further increase their advantage.
Argentina is a team that always analyzes, Escaloni is a coach that had the opportunity to beat them in the first game, in fact it was the opening game, and they were able to read how Canada played, obviously they knew how to prolong the game to beat them that way, so I think Canada played well, they reached a good stage of the Copa America, which they were very lucky to get through, but they still suffered the loss, the truth is I didn't see Canada making it to the final, much less beating Argentina. The Copa America is setting an example that South American soccer is picturesque, it has a high level, great fan base and on top of everything they continue to improve their level.


For my tastes Footballers, Canada lacked at least two goals to concede, I had them 4-0 in a Pool that I am playing,anyway ARG managed to qualify as expected.

I saw two plays by Messi that at any other time would not have failed, we are definitely seeing the last matches of this great footballer... I don't know if these remaining couple of years will give him another chance world cup (another topic=)

Uruguay-Colombia, is the great game of these semifinals, I don't bet on either of them, but I do have a prediction, be careful, two different things, so, a draw in regulation time, and I think that the luck of the penalties favors Uruguay .

You couldn't have said it better, although I see that you gave the Canadians a lot of faith, I think that the Canadians is better off playing under that unbreakable order and it must be said that their Height is very good for them because they are good and run a lot, but as I said, our football is Conmebol and the Conmebol teams look for the way to all the organized teams and look for vulnerability and win.

Regarding your prediction, it is the ideal, I think the same, only that you said it in a masterful way.

Messi scoring a goal for Argentina against Canada was very important before the final.
I know Canada was not strong enough for them but this was a good warm up match for the players.
I think Colombia has better chances than Uruguay in second semifinal match, but if we go to penalties than anything can happen in Charlotte.

Lionel Messi has worn a lot of trophies in his lifetime, but he will be happy and grateful if he can win another trophy again before retiring with Argentina. A goal for him in the semifinals is a good way to improve his already established confidence to score again in the finals against either Colombia or Uruguay.

Some of these games are hard to predict because they are closely contested, and victory is often by just a fine margin. Uruguay to the finals seems to be my choice.

Columbia have won the match already as the match ended 1-0. Columbia on the last minutes of the match was given a red card and tgeu came into the second half with one man down. Columbia was able to defend the only goal that was scored in the match till the last minutes and Uruguay was unable to take the advantage of a man down in Colombia team to win the match. Argentina stands a chance of winning Copa America this season if they can win Colombia in the finals.

The final will be an interesting one, Colombia being the underdogs surprisingly made it to the final beating Uruguay even though with an incomplete squad it meant that the great Colombians could survive the second half.
In terms of ability it is clear that Argentina will remain the favorite until whenever, considering this is the last trophy for Messi he will try hard to get and present it to Messi.
Remember Colombia is a tough opponent but in the end I'm sure Argentina can beat it.

If the Colombians were able to beat the highly rated Uruguayans to the finals, then I believe that they should not be underestimated at all because it's impossible for them to cause an upset against Argentina, if Argentina do not take care. The Colombians know that they are the underdog in the finals, and will approach the game with that tactics in mind, I expect a very tense finals, a finals with not so many goals.

We dont know if that is going to be enough to beat Colombia that played amazing Copa America tournament so far.
I expect tactical match with not many goals scored.

I wasn't expecting Messi to hang his international boot just yet, because the next world is just about 1 year and 6 months away and it'll will be co-hosted in the USA, a region where Messi already is currently acclimatizing himself and family with, but that's still a long time ahead.

If Argentina should win the trophy and Messi decides to call it quits with national team, that'd also be Messi ending his international career in the best  way most players would have wanted to end theirs, so anything really is still possible.

Messi has 37 years and he is playing for Argentina national team since 2005, that is 19 years, I think that is enough from him.
Maybe he has few more years in some club but MLS league is far from quality we can see in Europe or South America.
His contract with Inter Miami expires in the end of 2025, that is time to make some life changes for him.

It would not be surprising if Messi announced his retirement from international career after winning this year's Copa title. What Messi has given Argentina so far is enough. But there is not much buzz about Messi's retirement. It is heard from many media that Messi can play the next World Cup. We might lose two Argentinian players from this Copa, Di-Maria and Otamendi. It is heard in many media that this Copa final may be the last match of their international career. If that is the case, then we can say we are about to lose a legend like Di-Maria.

Still not retirement career for Lionel Messi because he still the interested for fans why watching Argentina national team, but several top players such as Angel Di Maria have announced with Copa America 2024 become last match for him and will retire from Argentina national team.
Tomorrow will watch the final copa America 2024 between Argentina vs Colombia, wish not bad happening with fans what happen before when Colombia fans make bad attitude when attacking the family of Uruguay players in the semifinal match. I think Argentina has bigger chance for winning Copa America 2024 and will be impressive achievement after success win back to back.

Messi's retirement is actually relative as it has been seen before that he took retirement from the national team due to poor performance in the 2018 World Cup but later rejoined and managed to win the World Cup with good performances.
Anyway, let's talk about Colombia in the Copa America finals, but this time it should not be taken lightly. Colombia has defeated stronger teams than them and has come to the finals. Earlier, Argentina had some close matches with Colombia, although the number of victories was more for Argentina. I would actually still call this match unpredictable as well as how the match ends in a tiebreaker.

Only few hours left for copa America final. mainly Argentine fans are very excited.They are fully prepared to see this final game. Projector and other equipment are ready to see this game. I think thos match will be very contesting and exciting. Now we are seeing festival festival mode in our area. I think Messi will be man of the match or man of the series. I am German supporter. so I wish both team will play good. Advance congratulation for Champion team.

Hopefully that will be another title in the hands of Messi, maybe every football lover wants to see. But the thing you mentioned about the attitude of Colombia fans I don't think there is any need to mention here because the Colombian players are not at fault here the entire incident is their fans responsible. If there are some strict rules about this matter, then maybe in the future such incidents may not happen again.
But the current team of Colombia is very strong, I am afraid that is why. If you look at the opposing teams of Argentina, they were much weaker than Argentina, still it was seen that Argentina had to feel a lot of difficulty in some matches. Let's see, still hoping that Argentina will be able to win this match.

My thoughts are the same as yours. I don't think this year's Copa America match is Messi's last match to play for Argentina, he should be anticipating retirement from the national team maybe after taking the Argentina team to the 2026 World Cup.

I assumed that Argentina would be winning the Copa America trophy by tomorrow. Messi will score the winning goal or be the one that will make the assist for the goal.

Colombia played very well today, they attacked very well but did not score.  Argentina had a very good attack but they couldn't score either.  But today the game is packed with both teams playing very well.  Argentina's Martínez is a very good goalkeeper and has saved many of Colombia's attacks.  Once again Colombia had a very good attack but they couldn't score as Martinez saved the ball very well.  However, within 40 minutes, Colombia attacked more.  Neither team could score a goal within 45 minutes of the game.

Di Maria made a very good attack but unfortunately the goal was not scored.  Just because Lionel Messi came off the field due to injury, it will have a full impact on the Argentina team.  Argentina scored a goal in the 75th minute but the goal was ruled offside.  It was 80 minutes but neither team could score.  Again a great attack by Argentina but they couldn't score for a while.  Both teams are playing almost the same today.  It has been almost 105 minutes of play but neither team has scored a goal yet.  Again Di Maria attacked very well but unfortunately no goal.

After 113 minutes of play, Lautara Martinez made a very nice attack and they were able to score.  Now there is no possibility of settlement of Columbia.  Now the Argentinian player dropped Di Maria and brought Otamendi to play.  Argentina made another great save.  And with that, Argentina won the Copa America Final 2024 by defeating Colombia with many beautiful games.  And now they are celebrating winning the match.

Argentina were a deserving winner of the tournament no doubt and it was yet another national trophy for Lionel Messi even though he couldn't play the entire game, I'm glad his teammates rose to the occasion to win the trophy, however, truth be told if there was another team that would deserved to win the tournament, I'd say it was Colombia because I was impressed by them over the course of the tournament, they really raised their standards and they can keep the heads up high despite falling just short of the trophy.

Both teams played very well in the Copa Final today. I really enjoyed watching today's game. Argentina's strengths are their match planning and goalkeeper Martinez. Relying on these two strengths, Argentina have won 4 trophies in the last 3 years. But there is no denying that Colombia played well. Hopefully Colombia will come back stronger in the future.

From what played out in the match Argentina was lucky to win Colombia because they didn't play anything as Colombia was in possession of the match till the end. Colombia was not lucky if not they should have won Argentina because they frustrated Argentina players and they also had many opportunities than Argentina. However, luck is also part of football and Colombia should part to be lucky next time because they have reached the finals three times but they were unable to win any of them.

Congratulations to Messi and his men because they don't deserve the victory.

Well in many opinions that I have seen, I know that there is a great discontent because Argentina won, sometimes we watch football and we believe that team X deserved to win, but it is clear that in football the one who wins is not the one who deserves to win but the one who scores the goals even if he played badly throughout the match, that is how simple and basic football is, I think that when it comes to penalties it is a question of luck, but if you win in the final minutes it is also luck and endurance, in this case Argentina had more endurance and intelligence to win, apart from the fact that the play was given to them and it was not a fortuitous goal or by luck, it was a goal well done by Lautaro, these things will happen to learn, Colombia knows that these mistakes are paid dearly, if not let's ask England in the Euro Cup.

 There are teams that win championships once in many years and it seems that such a consequence will never be repeated, although they are close, and they seem like big teams, but they really are...

Argentina went through a similar drought, but today it is winning and that makes it a champion team, they are winning teams, it will happen... they don't fall short, they win championships from time to time, so I don't know what the surprise was.

Colombia has never won anything important, it had a cup in 2001, but,,, that was when it organized it, Argentina did not participate, and Brazil sent a third-rate team, a shame because Colombia  had a great team, a footballer remnant that even They came to two World Cups as favorites...

This generation of James Rodriguez leaves without any important title, and perhaps being one of the best teams, but beautiful play, great players, and above all being a favorite does not win championships.

At the end of the match even the extra time the match was kind of predictable but I think at the end without coming of match most of the people want Argentina's win that happened. But I will applaud the performance of the Colombia team because they also played well, they tried hard to get the win but a score from Lautara Martinez stopped it. By the way I will miss Di Maria in Argentine team.

For the Colombians, they must have felt the win so close to them the moment Messi was confirmed not going to continue. They expected the removal of Messi from the team to break their spirits, but it acted opposite and inspired the Argentine players to go for the win.

The unexpected Lautaro Martinez scored the winning goal, I never would have picked him for that exploit, I have little confidence in him when he plays for the National team even though he had a good goal scoring record in the Copa America.

Martinez is a good striker in Inter and he does not miss his strike so I am not surprised that he was the one that delivered his team from the hands of the strong Colombians who were frustrating the Argentines on the pitch. Argentina was very lucky in that match. Even when Messi was in the game nothing changed because  Colombia game tactics was better than that of Argentina and nobody expected such brilliant performance from them.

They sure must have felt it was the God of luck that smiled on them after Messi was forced to be substituted off match after getting injured during the game and unable to continue, Colombia would sure have thought that was the biggest advantage that could have being bestowed upon them, only for Argentina to still find a way to win the match, and Colombia have been very solid from the group stage, they also would have been a worthy winner if they had managed to win it.
