Argentina, with Lionel Messi back to full fitness, faces Canada in the semifinals of the 2024 Copa America. This exciting match, which will take place on Tuesday, July 9th at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, promises to be a clash full of emotions and rivalry.
In their first meeting in the group stage, the reigning world champions beat Canada 2-0. However, the Canucks have proven to be a combative team full of surprises, eliminating Peru, Chile and Venezuela on their way to the semifinals of the CONMEBOL tournament.
Argentine coach Lionel Scaloni could make some changes to the starting lineup, including the return of Ángel Di María in place of Nicolás González. For his part, Canada coach Jesse Marsch has assured that his team will not back down and will look to play aggressive soccer.
The big question mark is the physical condition of Lionel Messi, who suffered a right adductor injury in the match against Chile. Despite having trained with the group, his starting line-up is not yet confirmed, but everyone in La Albiceleste is confident that he will play from the get-go.
Canada, on the other side, does not have any outstanding individuals, apart from Bayern Munich’s versatile winger Alphonso Davies. However, the canadian national team is characterized by its fighting spirit, physical strength and defensive rigor.
