The quarterfinals of the 2024 Copa America are set.
Favorites Argentina, Uruguay, Colombia and Brazil are all still in contention as the tournament reaches its business end in the United States.
Unfortunately for the USMNT they won’t be part of it after they were eliminated in the group stage. Defeat to Panama in their second game left their progression to the next phase in doubt before a loss against Uruguay sealed their fate.
Lionel Messi’s Argentina are defending champions, having lifted the title for a record-equalling 15th time last time out in Brazil in 2021.
Uruguay share that record with the reigning world champions and under Marcelo Bielsa are beginning a new era while Brazil, with stars like Vinicius Junior, Rodrygo and Alisson, are always likely contenders.
Here’s how the last eight shakes out:
