Argentina is preparing for a titanic duel against the surprising Canada in the semifinals of the 2024 Copa America. The match, that will take place today Tuesday, July 9th at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, will mark the return of both teams to the same venue where the tournament began. If you want to know what time to tune in for this clash and check the kickoff time in various time zones (United States, United Kingdom and Australia), keep reading until the end.
Lionel Scaloni arrives at this crucial match with 76 games in charge of La Albiceleste, equaling the record of Alfio Basile, the last great Argentinean soccer icon. With his sights set on repeating Basile’s feat of winning back-to-back Copa America (1991 and 1993), the Argentine coach has a star-studded squad, led by star player Lionel Messi, and has been tipped as favorites from the start of the tournament.
Canada, on the other hand, have defied all expectations by reaching the semifinal. Despite being the youngest team in the CONMEBOL tournament (with an average age of 25.8 years) and occupying 48th place in the FIFA ranking, the Canucks have shown courageous and tough soccer in this Copa America, leaving experienced southamerican teams such as Peru, Chile and Venezuela in their wake.
The winner of this match will face the winner of the duel between Uruguay and Colombia in the grand final of the 2024 Copa America that will take place on Sunday, July 14th in the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, Floida. Lionel Messi’s presence in the final seems almost inevitable, which would make this tournament a historic milestone for the Inter Miami CF’s striker and the Argentine national football team.
