[ad_1]

Marcelo Bielsa returns to the tournament after 20 years.The Panamanians will make their second ever appearance in the tournament. This Sunday, June 23, at 9 PM local time (10 PM Uruguay, 8 PM Panama), the first round of Group C will conclude with the match between La Celeste and the Canaleros.

Uruguay arrives with the hope of being a contender, led by the emblematic Marcelo Bielsa and a mix of experienced players (Luis Suárez) and others who dream of dazzling the continent, like Darwin Núñez, who will be playing in the CONMEBOL Copa América™ for the first time.

Panama, with Thomas Christiansen at the helm, dreams of repeating their success from their first tournament appearance: debuting with a victory. Adalberto Carrasquilla, Mejía, and Aníbal Godoy are the key players supporting the Concacaf team's aspirations.

La Celeste is second in the qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup and has played four friendlies this year: in March, they drew with the Basque Country and lost to Costa Rica; in June, they drew with Costa Rica and achieved a great victory over Mexico (4-0) in their last test before the tournament.

Meanwhile, Los Canaleros qualified for the CONMEBOL Copa América™ in 2023 by defeating Costa Rica in the quarterfinals of the Concacaf Nations League. In March, the tournament resumed, and Panama lost both of their matches (to Mexico and Jamaica) to finish in fourth place. In June, they secured two wins in the World Cup qualifiers (against Guyana and Montserrat). In their last friendly before the tournament, they lost 1-0 to Paraguay.
