I hope Colombia wins, but the odds definitely don't worth. It's too much risk for a 2.6x profit. If odds were 3x or higher I would consider it a very good opportunity to take the risk. Anyway, I expect a balanced gameplay with some exciting surprises.

It's going to be a great game because Colombia are going to give it all they've got, but I don't believe they'll win. They've been very good, but Argentina has also been equally good. They know how to win. Argentina don't fold under pressure, if you score them, they'll fight back. I don't think there's any national team right now hat can win against Argentina on their day currently.
The Messi factor is one thing, but when you look at the whole team you'll understand how balanced it is. There is no weak link. There's no single wing in the Argentine started 11 that's weak. That's a pretty balanced team and they play as a team.

I'm not saying Colombia don't stand a chance, but for them to win, they have to fight twice as hard because Argentina will push them to the last. And to top everything up, they have a very solid and confident keeper at the back behind a very solid defence. I'd like to see Colombia come up against the highly motivated Argentina team.

Luis Suarez saved the Uruguay team in this match. The Canadian team was leading 2-1 until the 90th minute of the match. I thought the match might end 2-1. But the Uruguayan team was able to draw the match 2-2 with the excellent performance of Luis Suarez. Luis Suarez scored the second goal for Uruguay in the 90+2 minutes. And in the end Uruguay won the match 4-3 in penalty shootout. Canada's players missed two penalties
I always remember Suarez when he secured a ticket for his country to advance in World Cup while saving the ball from the net by his hand and the unfortunate African team player missed the penalty. Now Suarez came to save them from finishing fourth in Copa America and letting his nation win through penalties.


I thought we were going to watch the Uruguay vs Argentina final. Uruguay also performed very well against Brazil. However, Uruguay's attacking performance against Colombia was somewhat poor. That's why Uruguay lost this match despite Colombia playing with 10 players. If Uruguay's attacking players had played well, we would have seen an Argentina vs Uruguay final.

But against Canada we have to say that Uruguay were lucky. But you are right that the Uruguayan team is third in the qualifying table. But in this match Canada team players performed better than Uruguay. Canada would have won 2-1 had Luis Suarez not scored at the last minute. The main hero of Uruguay's victory in this match is Luis Suarez


Uruguay deserves to be in front of Canada. We will see if Argentina will follow and win against Colombia, it will not be an easy task at all,

The Colombia vs Argentina match is about to start shortly. Argentina team is considered as favorite in this match. But Colombia team is very strong. And I would say Colombia has the ability to beat Argentina. This match is going to be a tight fight without a doubt.

But the match between Argentina and Colombia that we are waiting to see in the final is definitely likely to be Colombia as the second placed team here. Because Argentina is a strong team, Colombia may not be able to match them, and they have won the Copa América Cup before, so they have a lot of experience. As the runners-up team, we might see Colombia in the second position and Argentina might win the Copa América Cup in this match.

Argentina will be the hardest working for this match, as the unity of the Argentina team is enough to reach their goal of victory. But the Colombian team is also quite aggressive for this season, so after just a few hours, Argentina and Colombia will meet. And all the fans are wondering, can Lionel Messi with his experience and full performance lead his team to victory?  Or Colombia players will perform well in today's game?
Messi as a solo player can't be trusted in finals but on the other hand, Di Maria always does wonders in finals. Is it confirmed that Messi will play in the Copa America final? I read on goal.com that it wasn't confirmed but I also read on ESPN that Messi plans to play in this final and it might be his last game for Argentina. I hope it won't be because I think we all want to see him in World Cup 2026, he can and probably should retire after that.

Sadly I'll be fall asleep since this game starts in an hour and half and it's too late in my country. Please someone, quote me with the link of match or highlights where I can see a video of what happened without revealing the score. I already blocked flashscore in my router cause I know that's the first thing I'm gonna do tomorrow when I wake up.

I would really love to see a finalissima of Spain - Argentina.

Argentina are favorites in the final and I admit that's true. The match which will take place in a few hours is basically expected to be the best match until the end, but I am not underestimating Colombia at all. Whatever it is, Colombia is one of the best in the 2024 Copa America, so no one can underestimate them in the final even if Argentina is the favorite. I'm curious whether Colombia can force Argentina to play until the penalty shootout or not, if that happens then Colombia could possibly create history.
Colombia has a great defense. They managed to block all the attacks from Uruguay on the last game, even with one less player on their team. They don't have the best of the offensive teams, but it's a solid balanced squad which doesn't lack quality in any positions. In my opinion a balanced squad is better than having an offensive one, but without any defense in counterpart.

I hope Colombia wins, but the odds definitely don't worth. It's too much risk for a 2.6x profit. If odds were 3x or higher I would consider it a very good opportunity to take the risk. Anyway, I expect a balanced gameplay with some exciting surprises.

For the game to be more challenging, let's hope this time we aren't going to have any red cards, otherwise the match gets too boring with one of the teams playing only defensively.

I think Argentina will also not going to take the Colombia easy way so that they are working hard for this match as well as Colombia is also going to be hardest team for Argentina.  Because if we see on the group-stage matches and also the semi-final, then we will see Argentina win all of them but they have also face difficulty with team like the Ecuador in the quarter-final even then all of them are  weaker than Argentina team.
On the other hand Colombia fought hard with the strong opponent like the Brazil so they also chances to take the cup away. But in case match I will support the Agentina team for win Even they face some difficulty on the match. Let's have tight your belt match is going to start in few hours.

I agree with you on this, James Rodríguez won’t go down without a hard fight against Messi for the Copa trophy, and as long as Colombia is present in finals that means they are playing well and capable of winning against any team of this competition. Personally, I believe every team has a 50% chances of winning as long as the match didn’t start.
Lionel Messi is chasing another title with his national team, I have read that this is the first time in history Argentina and Colombia will play in the finals, and I see it as another incentive for both if them to play better, these kind of analyses will help us to know if this game will be open from both sides, more opportunities and goals in this match.
I didn’t get a chance to follow this competition as it is timed for American countries, playing late for the rest of world to watch, that’s why I couldn’t follow all the matches but from the short summarizes I have watched, I would like to pick Argentina to win their next trophy after world cup.

The favourites Spain have won the Euro 2024, would the favourites Argentina will win the Copa America 2024 ?
We would know this after a few hours time as the final will be live after three hours at the Hard Rock Stadium at Miami.

I would be looking to bet on Argentina in this match or maybe I should wait and see the first half and see who scores the first Goal. The Odds for Argentina are not too attractive but for Colombia you can get a good 2.60

Canada vs Uoruguay
Not to downplay the effort of Colombia, but Uruguay should be in the finals of the Copa America, so they would try to make sure they win this third-place game.

Betting on this game, I would bet on a first-half win for Uruguay.

The game starts in a few minutes, Sit tight!!!
In the third-place match, Canada and Uruguay put in solid performances and the two teams were tied at full-time, hence the result of the game was decided by penalties. We saw Canada beat Uruguay 4-3 on penalties. But it was great to see Canada put up a tough fight with Uruguay in the end. Both the teams tried to score in the last few minutes and both teams attacked and counter-attacked but in the end neither team could go ahead with the result of which the result of the game was decided by Penalties. Uruguay is now ranked third over the first-placed team, the team that wins the final, and the second-placed team,the runner-up team in the final
The third placed team is currently Uruguay but Canada team tried hard but lost on penalties, they were not in their luck. However, this match was very exciting as the match was drawn between the two teams due to which the match ended in penalties and Uruguay won. But the match between Argentina and Colombia that we are waiting to see in the final is definitely likely to be Colombia as the second placed team here. Because Argentina is a strong team, Colombia may not be able to match them, and they have won the Copa América Cup before, so they have a lot of experience. As the runners-up team, we might see Colombia in the second position and Argentina might win the Copa América Cup in this match.

I would have been very happy if Canada could have won this match. Because Canada's performance in this match surprised me. I don't think Canada is a strong team. This is a mediocre team. However, Canada's players performed well against Uruguay. They were very hardworking. And Canada team was desperate to win this match. But unfortunately could not win the match till the end.

Canada's luck was really bad in this match. Because the Canadian team was leading 2-1 in the match until 90 minutes. But at the last moment, Luis Suarez's goal equalized the Uruguayan team. And in the end, Uruguay won the penalty shootout. Fortune favored Uruguay in this match.

Wouldn't call it a day in this one too early. Argentina has had problems in those other games. It is out of the question that they often times have more control over the game, but you can just watch the game Spain - England and see what can happen despite one team more or less dominating the other.

It is a final and Colombia will give everything they have. Argentina won't win this with ease and certainly not something like 3-0. It's going to be another close one - same thing as now in the European Championship.

The third placed team is currently Uruguay but Canada team tried hard but lost on penalties, they were not in their luck. However, this match was very exciting as the match was drawn between the two teams due to which the match ended in penalties and Uruguay won.

The Uruguayan team that won Pelanti essentially won by luck and luck was on their side. Team Canada was winning until the last and main game, but Luiz Suarez scored a goal in extra minutes to tie the score at 2-2. And Suarez has played a significant role here as he has performed well for Uruguay. And he has the biggest role to win the cup.

I have never seen such a good and competitive performance game between Uruguay and Canada team, most of the fans of the Canada team cried in the gallery. And the players suffered a lot as just one goal made a huge difference in the game.


But the match between Argentina and Colombia that we are waiting to see in the final is definitely likely to be Colombia as the second placed team here.

Tomorrow, the final match of the Copa America will be held where Argentina will face Colombia. In the past seasons we have seen Brazil and Argentina dominate but this season Argentina are in a good position but Brazil has already exited this tournament long ago. Colombia seems to be a very strong team in this tournament of Copa America and they have been performing consistently so the match against Colombia will be somewhat difficult for Argentina. But the team with Messi and more world-class star players should definitely go ahead and win another Copa America title. Argentina has enough soccer fans around the world that they will surely be watching Argentina's match tomorrow to see if their team can give them another title.

Well, it's very hard to pick which team is gonna win the final of Copa America. Argentina leads statistically. But, there is no a big difference between Argentina and Colombia. They're having strong defense and attack. It's hard to predict it. But, i know one aspect that Colombia lacks which is lack of collectively. If Argentina is always playing collectively. And  Argentina intensively pressuring their opponents through short pass - direct attack. That's why im rooting Argentina to win the game against Colombia soon. The only problem for Argentina that must be anticipated is Colombia's attackers.

Many underrate James Rodriguez as an attacker. But, he could surprise us anytime. Luis Diaz also poses the main threat for Argentina. He is fast and strong. I don't see other players than James and Diaz to be the biggest threats for Argentina. That's why I have reason to say Argentina will win. They have better defenders. There's is also Lautaro Martinez along with Messi.

All in all, various aspects suggest me to root for Argentina to win the game. 2-0 against  Colombia.
What do you mean by collectively that Columbia lacks? Can you explain that? Cos the Columbia that Argentina is playing against in the Copa America finals has stayed unbeaten in their last 28 matches. That's to say, they have displayed different football tactics(short pass - direct attack - counterattack- defensive game, etc) to stay unbeaten for that long. Who knows whether they can shock everyone by winning against Argentina to lift the Copa America for the second time cause they last won in 2001(23 years ago), winning this time around will not be a bad idea or move for them. Notwithstanding, both teams playing skills are fantastic. It's a 50:50 match ending in a penalty shootout. Columbia or Argentina wins

It would definitely be entertaining to see a team defend a reigning champion and it seems that Colombia has the capacity to do that they are going to need to try and recover as much as they can physically after their last game and then they can have a chance against Argentina.

I know that Colombia has tried so much in terms of reaching were they are now on the league but don't you think is too much to expect Colombia to win Argentina team? Because I believe we all know how prepared Argentina is on this league and secondly we must understand that Argentina is not a country that should be underestimated because so long as this season is concerned they have more squad than Colombia, though I'm not against Colombia because I know that they are also good but predicting based on fact Argentina has more percentage of wining the trophy than Colombia but however just like they said that in football nothing is impossible so perhaps at the end we would see whom the winner will be.

The Colombia team is very strong, when a player is sent off after receiving a red card and the following second half is managed by 10 players. But at that time Uruguay had 11 players, yet could not beat the Colombian team. Since then I believe there will be a great competition between Argentina and Colombia, the Argentina team is quite useful for the present time. But in this case the Colombian team is more powerful so the game will be played full of competition between these two teams. So far, Argentina has been more of a gambler, but not much different from Colombia.

Though judging from your own perspective you are right to say that Colombia is a very strong team in regards to what happens on that match you were referring to because is never easy for a club to play with short one, but on that match they handled everything very well without so much difficulty even when we also know that Uruguay is a very dominant team, however the direction I'm looking at is that Argentina has also meet more bigger teams on there way to this finals and they were able to beat them so irrespective of what Colombia played on that match doesn't really make them more better than Argentina but though the fact is that the match will be very tough.

Frankly, I was quite surprised with how this match went because I thought that Uruguay would get an easy win in this match but, what happened was that Canada played quite impressively and they were able to provide fierce resistance to Uruguay. Canada could have won this match if only they could have played calmly toward the end of the match, unfortunately, they looked very nervous when facing pressure from Uruguay, and that actually created an opening for Uruguay to get their goal.
Previously, many expected Uruguay to qualify for the final rather than Colombia. If this scenario happened, Argentina would very easily beat Uruguay. Canada really made a surprise, they managed to get two goals back after trailing 1-0 in the 8th minute, but Luis Suarez ended Canada dream with a goal he scored just before the end of the game. This goal opened up opportunities for Uruguay, as well as providing a bonus for the spectators, the match had to continue until the penalty shootout and Uruguay managed to secure third place. Canada looked a little nervous towards the end of the match, if they had played a little calmer by staying focused in their defensive area or changing the game to a defensive one, maybe they would have secured the victory they had achieved.

Canada surprised us with their play but same time showed inexperience at the end of the 90 minutes. They should have slowed the game down when they had possession to secure the victory. It was heartbreaking for Canada as Uruguay took 3rd place at Copa America 2024 by winning in penalty kicks. Penalty kicks decide the winner after 90 minutes of regular time and 30 minutes of extra time. I wasn't fully convinced Uruguay would win. In my opinion, they simply had the better team but were outplayed by Canada. Canada deserved this victory more than anyone. However, Canada should be proud of finishing fourth. They brought a nation together, and the future looks good for Canadian soccer.

I'm actually surprised they managed to score 2 goals against Uruguay and furthermore to push the game towards penalties so they should be pleased with their achievement and their football style at this Copa America. I can also say that Canada has currently a way better football than USA and that was not the case before this Copa America.

Now , I must also congrats my favorites Uruguay who got 3rd place after a long break of actually achieving anything at Copa America and if Bielsa stays with this team , I'm sure next Copa America might be with them in the finals and even lifting the trophy.

I really appreciated Canada's effort in the match for the 3rd place to tell the truth.  Smiley  They played fearless and could have even won without extra time and more. But Luis Suarez's life saver in the stoppage time led to Uruguay's finishing Copa America as the 3rd.

By the way Suarez is still a beast though.  Grin  He is 37 years old but still cooking. He has been continuing to score many goals in a season whatever league he goes to. Here he made a huge contribution with that goal as well.

Uruguay actually had a really good potential in this tournament but wasted it by losing to Colombia unexpectedly. Playing against 10 players for 45 minutes but not managing to score a single goal...  Sad
Yeah, it's really unexpected to see Suarez scored a goal, Uruguay still not yet able to lost Suarez, they still need him. Uruguay deserved to finish in third position, although they're struggle to win.

Uruguay did try to score a goal when Colombia only have 10 players, Uruguay completely dominate the match in second half, maybe it was a mistake to not replace Nunez with Suarez, Suarez was playing as a defensive midfielder in that match.

Tomorrow the final match will start, I'm still hoping Colombia to pull upsets.
