Rabat – Defending champions Argentina are set to face off against Colombia on Monday in the final stage of the Copa America 2024, at 1 a.m. in Miami.
Led by Lionel Messi, Argentina aim to clinch their second consecutive title and their 16th overall, which would break their tie with Uruguay for the most championships in the tournament’s history.
However, to achieve this, they must overcome a formidable Colombian team that has gone undefeated in 28 consecutive matches.
Argentina comes into the match as the favorite, but Colombia’s impressive form, led by the resurgent James Rodriguez, poses a significant threat.
A victory for Colombia would mark their first Copa America title since 2001 and extend their unbeaten streak to 29 matches.
Experts predict that Lautaro Martinez is the player to watch. The “Serie A Golden Boot” winner has been in scintillating form, leading the Copa America with four goals. His ability to find the back of the net will be crucial for Argentina as they seek to secure the trophy.
Fans are also eyeing Jhon Cordoba as the potential man of the match for his significant contributions to Colombia’s attack.
Cordoba, who replaced Rafael Santos Borre after Colombia’s first match, has been instrumental in leading the line and creating space for his teammates. His physical presence and goal-scoring ability could be decisive factors in Colombia’s quest for the title.
