JAKARTA – The 2024 Copa America has entered the Uruguay vs Colombia semifinals fierce parties to fight for a place in the final round.
Uruguay vs Colombia match will be held at the Bank of America Stadium, North Carolina, United States, on Thursday, July 11, 2024, at 07.00 WIB.
Uruguay stepped into the semifinals of the 2024 Copa America with a fairly proud feeling. You see, in the quarter-finals, they dramatically managed to get rid of the favorite team to win, Brazil.
Brazil was eliminated through a penalty shootout at the Allegiant Stadium, Sunday, July 7, 2024. In that match, Uruguay drew 0-0 and even normal time ended.
The winner was then determined by penalty shootout and Brazil had to go home after losing 2-4. PSG midfielder Manuel Ugarte was the determinant of Uruguay’s victory on penalties, while Federico Valverde received positive credit for his game, as well as Sergio Rochet who was on guard under the crossbar.
Reflecting on the performance of his players when appearing against Brazil, Marcelo Bielsa as Uruguay coach had to make the team even better.
Against Colombia, he had to build attacks from midfield and try to dictate the game. Otherwise, the opposing team will find it difficult to stop when they are on the side who controls the ball.
The Colombian camp has secured a place first in the semifinals after a 5-0 win over Panama.
In the match at the University of Phoenix Stadium, Arizona, United States, Sunday, July 7, 2024, Colombia dominated the match. The meeting was also marked by a penalty prize executed by Miguel Borja.
Throughout the 2024 Copa America journey, Colombia was quite shining with the presence of James Rodriguez who was the best midfielder in the tournament. The player appeared with perfect passes and a goal-generating cross as well as a chance to score goals for his colleagues.
Despite having to go through a winding journey, Colombia became a team with the most shots at the goal in the tournament. With a number of accurate attack options, they also did not give many opportunities to their opponents.
If you look at the notes on paper, in the last 15 matches of the two teams, Uruguay won seven times over Colombia, lost three times, and drew five times.
From that match, 45 goals were scored. Uruguay posted 24 goals and 21 goals belonging to Colombia.
Uruguay is currently in a positive trend in their last five matches. They won four times and drew one time. La Celeste always managed to win with a convincing score.
However, Colombia also has a classy record of being unbeaten in the last five games and winning four times with a convincing score.
Their meeting in the semifinals of the 2024 Copa America seems to be a very interesting match and an attacking duel.
The problem now is that Colombia is not a traditional team for candidates to win the Copa America. They have only won once, have one runner-up, and have won third and five times.
Very far from Uruguay’s achievements. La Celeste has won the Copa America 15 times, made runners-up six times, and stood in third place nine times.
