The moment has come for Argentina to defend their title at the Copa America 2024, as the team that currently holds the title will be competing against Canada in the primary match of the tournament.
La Albiceleste is guided by two exceptional individuals: manager Lionel Scaloni and the legendary Lionel Messi. Messi won’t have to be the main star to advance from this group, but he will probably relish his first match of the tournament against Canada, which is still adapting to Marsch’s system. Rodrigo De Paul, Alexis Mac Allister, and Enzo Fernandez lead an exceptional midfield that aims to dominate this game.
This year, Canada will be making its first-ever appearance at the Copas tournament. Six nations from the CONCACAF have qualified, and Canada secured their spot by defeating Trinidad and Tobago in the play-offs.
