Re: Copa America 2024 Prediction Thread

I saw Messi crying on the bench after being pulled out due to an ankle injury, he was worried that Argentina would lose without him but luckily in extra time Lautaro Martinez scored the only goal for Argentina's victory as well as winning the Coppa America this is the umpteenth trophy Messi has won he is really lucky.

Suppose Messi will retire in Argentina he will not regret it because he has got an important trophy at the end of his career World Cup and Copa America, and in addition Angel Di Maria has announced he will retire so this is a trophy for the last time, I hope Messi is still strong to face the 2026 World Cup.

Look at his foot, it's really a serious injury.

Both teams play really well, Colombia create many chance, but Martinez always able to block it and luckily Lautaro can score a goal on the extra time. Argentina deserve to win, probably in the next 2 years Colombia can become a champion.

However it's really crazy De Paul as the only one midfielder can play for 120 minutes even though he's already 30 years old.

First, I would like to congratulate Argentina on becoming champions in the 2024 Copa America, this is their 16th title in the Copa America and they have successfully defended the title they won in the previous edition.
Bad news came to their star player who was injured, it has not been confirmed whether the injury was very serious or not and only needed a short time to recover. However, judging from the swelling of his leg, it seemed like it was a serious injury that resulted in him having to be pulled out. I just hope there is no serious injury and he can return in a short time.
This match was quite fierce, Columbia put up serious resistance to Argentina. In fact, they were able to play without a goal for 90 minutes so it had to go to extra time. In the extra round, Argentina had a chance which they successfully converted into a goal and it was the deciding goal for them to become champions of the 2024 Copa America.

It was a thrilling match. At first my prediction was that maybe Argentina would seal their victory within 90 minutes but the match was very competitive. For the whole 90 minutes Colombia were able to keep their defense strong and try to constant attacking . Although Argentina won 1-0, it must be said that Colombia played well. On the one hand Argentina was at the top of the form, on the other hand Colombia was also unbeaten in the games for their country for about 27 matches. Colombia was excellent in the group stage as well. James Rodríguez had high hopes that they would be able to fulfill their dream this year, their dream did not come true. But I'm sure if any team other than Argentina could have reached the final, Colombia would have won the Copa America this time. However, the world will praise this great achievement of Argentina.
