@A-Unique-Nickname saidIt appears everyone was wrong about Canada's chances in the Copa America. They are heading to the semi-finals so have actually already gotten further than anyone thought they would, so in itself a victory. Yours truly didn't expect them to make it to the semi-finals. A shocker to many people in the world.
Copa America doesn't start until the semis.
Only Argentina, Brazil or this year, Colombia have a chance. The rest are just there like England at the Euros 😉
Predictions for Euros
Germany
France
England
Netherlands
Spain and Switzerland clearly better on form but going for sneaky wins. France Vs Portugal a toss of a coin but France based on tourna ...[text shortened]... ch Vs turkey, well ... Someone has to win, maybe Turkey will just be happy to have made it that far?
Of course everyone is concentrating on the Euro's!!!!

@Very-Rusty saidCopa América is great but this year all the matches are on so late for us in Europe so it doesn't get any attention. In previous years there was earlier matches, remember the final starting at 11pm a couple of times which is reasonable for us, this year they all start at 1am and the final is on a Sunday. I remember watching the final two years ago, I won't be watching any of it this year. Shame because I'd like to see the Colombia games and yes Canada have done a great job, wasn't an easy group on paper but Chile and Peru aren't as good as they used to be and Venezuela have been historically terrible.

@Drewnogal saidShould have been glass bottles 😁
So Gareth Southgate avoided another pelting with plastic bottles last night?
Some football supporters are so childish 😩
@A-Unique-Nickname saidMy only association with Cardiff City FC was when I once parked outside, waiting to pick up my young son and his dad. I wondered why it was so quiet to park there then to my horror realised why as the supporters started pouring out with crowds passing my car in which me and my smallest son were waiting. A workmate, a CC supporter later told me ‘You were lucky it wasn’t Millwall that they had been playing that night!’

Canada couldn't find the breakthrough against Argentina, which got goals from Julián Álvarez and Lionel Messi to advance to its second straight Copa America final. The TSN Soccer panel breaks down what went wrong for Canada in their loss to the defending champs and where they need to improve moving forward.
I give them a lot of credit for getting as far as they did and a chance at 3rd worst they can do now is 4th and I think coming in they would have been satisfied with that.
You got Argentina right, now we will see how the other one goes.
