Drake must be really insane to make a bet like this.    He put $300k on Canada to win against Argentina and lost. I know he is doing this for fun but still unbelievable. I wonder if this is a sponsor money given by Stake to him, just like xQc's deal with Stake.

Anyway it was a decent win by Argentina just as expected. They repeated their success against Canada in the group stage. Now they are waiting for their competitor. Uruguay or Colombia, which one do you favour?

I'm still going on with Uruguay after successfully predicting them to win against Brazil. 

I can't say any team is favorite in this match. Colombia and Uruguay are both my favorite teams. Uruguay's players are working hard. And qualified for the semi-finals by defeating a strong Brazilian team in the last match. Uruguay is performing very well in this year's Copa America.

Colombia on the other hand has a strong squad. Colombia also won the last match with a big margin of 5-0 against Panama. Colombia's attack is also quite strong. So this match will undoubtedly be very competitive. As both teams have strong attacking units. So both teams will play attacking strategy and try to score goals. I am looking forward to enjoy a competitive and exciting match.

If there is nothing I can say that is not true, it is like this, for me this match will be very interesting, on one hand we will see the desire that a country like Colombia has to reach the final and on the other we have a Uruguay that has a coach for whom I have a lot of respect and is someone who knows how to read each match well, both teams have players that are of a very high caliber, for me this match is very difficult to decide, because I think it goes either way, I don't know if it goes to Colombia or Uruguay, it could be that it goes to penalties, I don't know , I wouldn't dare to give a result between these two teams.

I have to admit, Argentina is looking terrific. I enjoy their play. Still, this is not finished yet. Uruguay represents the fire we are talking about should they make it to the championship game. Those men defeated Argentina last year. We are going to have a huge fight. Colombia is also not slouches either. Though I have to give Argentina the edge there, they are unbeaten and performing nicely. Messi, Di Maria, these guys are really outstanding.

however, it all boils down to who shows up for game day. Who more wants it? Who will be playing their hearts out for? Champions medals are earned from this. Though it wont be easy, Argentina has a great chance here. This Copa America is everyone's game, so its rather nasty exciting.

In fact, I chose Argentina before the match started, and I didn't care about the composition of the players in the starting lineup because after all, this was a semifinal match and of course Argentina would still play well to win within 90 minutes. Because I still think that Argentina certainly has very good quality and opportunities compared to Canada. Therefore, even though this is a semifinal match which will basically be a difficult match, but I personally think this match will still be easy for Argentina.

Also, because Argentina managed to qualify for the final, of course I personally remain confident that Argentina will be able to defend the Copa America title or trophy this time. Because of course,  this moment may also be the last moment for Messi to play in the national team and thus I sure that Argentina will succeed in winning the Copa America trophy for the second time in a row.

Uruguay and Colombia both are equally impressive and since group stages until quarterfinal whether it Colombia or Uruguay has same records that they got 3 wins and 1 draw and in the quarterfinal Colombia can beat Panama with huge scores 5-0 and for Uruguay they can able to overcomes Brazil through an penalty shootout and both teams also very productive because Uruguay can scores 9 goals and Colombia has been scores 11 goals so these records is proven they have good balanced to attack and defense and for Copa America 2021 both teams has been met on quarterfinal at that time Uruguay can win from penalty shootout

Uruguay has Manuel Ugarte, Federico Valverde and Darwin Nunez and for Colombia they had Luis Diaz and although he is not a striker so far Luis Diaz is one of Colombia top scorer in this tournament with 2 goals but if we see based on squad quality i can see Uruguay a bit better compared to Colombia and for the outcomes of this match my prediction is Colombia will taking initiative to playing more attacking than Uruguay and why i said that because since group phase Colombia is good from ball possesion but Uruguay might be will used counter attack and attempts to scores from this strategy and about the outcomes of this match my prediction is Uruguay will be the winner and Uruguay win has good odds to bets @2.70

I'm betting on Colombia winning and qualifying
The level of soccer the team is showing is very good, thinking about attack, focusing on scoring goals and not playing defensively
James Rodriguez is also in great form for the national team
I can even say that I'm rooting for Colombia to win this Copa America hehehe 

I see both teams being very even throughout the game. I strongly believe in a draw in regular time. I would bet a lower amount. In my predictions from yesterday, which I posted in this BK8 announcement, I ended up getting Argentina right and even the goals in the France game.

But regarding this game, I strongly believe that they will draw and that they will lose to Argentina.

Actually there is nothing much to say about the match between Argentina vs Canada because Argentina were many favorites before playing Canada against Argentina and we have already predicted with much certainty that Argentina will win this match. Throughout the game we saw that Canada did not seem like a tough opponent for Argentina at all. Argentina's possession of the ball for most of the time, accurate passing as well as good attacking skills gave them such an easy win.

Although the quarter-final barrier is easily cleared, the semi-final barrier may be a bit tougher for them, but Argentina are favorites in the semi-final as well and if I'm not mistaken, I'll definitely see Argentina in the final of the tournament.

Argentina beat Canada to enter Copa America final. It is impossible to predict which team will win the Uruguay vs Colombia match but I think Uruguay wins ahead of the equation. Uruguay beat Colombia in this match to reach the final, consistently I think Uruguay is a stronger squad than Colombia. In that case I think Uruguay will win this match and play the final match against Argentina.

Against Canada was an easy game for Argentina, Lionel Messi and his friends did not experience any obstacles to beat Canada. Argentina journey this time was very smooth, only Ecuador was the team that made it a little difficult for Argentina to beat them. Argentina had to play until the penalty shootout to advance to the semifinals. Argentina is one step away from winning the Copa America in a row, they have to win one more match to maintain their status as defending champions, they are waiting for the winner in another match between Uruguay vs Colombia.

If Columbia is able to win Uruguay, it means that Columbia team is stronger than Uruguay squad. I don't still believe it that if Uruguay win Colombia, they will win Argentina and we should not use precious years result to judge the future because Uruguay didn't play very well against Brazil. However, they started the competition in a grand style and it seems that they are meeting strong countries as they advance further. Colombia might win Uruguay and play with Argentina in the finals.

I agree with both of you that Uruguay tends to be a more competitive opponent for Argentina in Coppa America 2024 final match. They are more experienced than Comlobia and have more star players than Colombia too but firstly they must beat Colombia before having chance to meet Argentina.

With Argentina, they have three old players Messi, Di Maria and Otamendi who are all above 36 years old and are playing very last matches for their national team. This can be their last Coppa America and maybe last big tournament too because at this old age, no guarantee that they will be called for Argentina squad in World Cup 2026, next 2 years.

I chose to bet Uruguay in qualifying with odds below 2.00, I know now that Colombia is very good they can threaten Uruguay even though many do not favor this team, I don't want to bet 1X2 when this match ends in a draw and goes to penalties then it's useless we will lose the bet.

Actually this is the taste of each one in making bets, I also favor Uruguay just not for a winning bet in 90 minutes.
Looking at Colombia's match record can only hold a draw with Brazil as Colombia can win more than 2 goals, so if the opponent is equal it is still likely that this will end in a draw and proceed to penalties again.

Not really a valid reason to say Uruguay is the bigger threat to Argentina because only Uruguay beat Argentina after world cup, Colombia didn't meet Argentina after world cup, so we don't know how strong Colombia when they face Argentina.

The head to head both of them are almost similar,
Colombia vs Argentina, Colombia 1x win, 4x draw, Argentina 6x win.
Uruguay vs Argentina, Uruguay 2x win, 2x draw, Argentina 6x win.

All in Uruguay!



Bookmakers are changing Uruguay's odds to be slightly different than when you posted above. It may be a signal if Uruguay is gonna win the game. Believe me, they will repeat the same success against Brazil. If the game ends in a draw, but they won't lose to Colombia. it's Uruguay who beat brazil in the last game.

And I think their last meetings don't matter now. Many things changed since the last meeting, and im rooting Uruguay to win the game.

The second finalist is being determined of the Copa America. Uruguay had a great pretournament period under Marcelo Bielsa and they have been effective in the tournament. Uruguay were missing Brazil, who eliminated them on penalties in the quarterfinals. Nandez, who received a red card against Brazil, is out for Colombia and Araujo, who left the game injured, is also doubtful.

For Colombia, who have not lost in their last 27 matches in all competitions, equaling their own record set in 1992-1994, the quarterfinal was more comfortable than expected as they easily beat Panama, scoring 5 goals in a match for the first time in Copa America. Captain James Rodriguez continues to breathe life into the team with his assists. As the tournament draws to a close, teams start to play more cautiously and we could see a draw in this match at the end of 90 minutes.

Argentina finally qualified to final Copa America 2024 after defeating Canada in semifinal round and waiting the winner teams between Colombia vs Uruguay for facing in the final. No doubt with Argentina as favorite winning team in the semifinal from Canada because both team faced in phase group with Argentina easily defeated Canada.

Lionel Messi break the record as the first players success scoring all goals appearance in Copa America, he scored every Copa America participation and recently he played until six Copa America edition and success scoring goal every edition. One step closer for Lionel Messi make the history by winning Copa America although he still has chance for next edition four years later and completed his achievement after winning FIFA World Cup 2022 and win Copa America 2024.

Canada really had luck to beat Venezuela because we clearly saw last night that they are unable to actually play top football. More than this , we saw Argentina playing so relaxed without actually putting lots of pressure on Canada and those 2 goals were just to secure the victory but I think whoever will face Argentina in the finals , they will actually win against them. Both Uruguay and Columbia displayed a way better football than Argentina and that's why I think the winner of Copa America will be between these 2 teams. 

Actually, this score had been predicted before, because in the previous Matchday 1 Group A match, Argentina had met Canada, Argentina also won 2-0 over Canada, interestingly the same incident almost happened again, because in that match Julian Alvarez also scored the opening goal for Argentina, while the second goal was slightly different, it was not Messi who scored the goal, but he provided the assist. However, the Argentine national team is full of very experienced players, so i think they played quite relaxed against the Canadian national team, while Canada was the opposite. The thing we are most looking forward to is the final, congratulations to Argentina for successfully qualifying.
