Argentina vs. Canada Showdown: High Stakes in 2024 Copa America Semi-Finals
Canada’s incredible Copa America debut sees Jesse Marsch’s side face holders and reigning Copa and world champions Argentina in the semifinals of the 2024 competition.
Les Rouges have produced a resilient showing on their first-ever Copa America appearance, reaching the final four with a quarterfinal penalty shootout win over Venezuela, and a final clash against Colombia or Uruguay is now on the horizon for the winners.
Albeceleste are looking to retain their title and win three successive major trophies, led by captain Lionel Messi.
What Happens if Argentina Beats Canada or loses, tie?
If Argentina defeats Canada, they will advance directly to the final, set for Sunday, July 14, at Hard Rock Stadium. There, they will face the winner of the other semifinal between Uruguay and Colombia.
If the match ends in a tie after regular time, the match will go straight to a penalty shoot-out to determine who advances to the final.
If Canada manages to upset Argentina, Messi’s team will miss out on a place in the final and will instead play in the 3rd-place match on Saturday, July 13. A victory for Canada would mark their first-ever appearance in the Copa America final.
