Argentina secured a convincing victory over Canada in the group stage, but it would be unwise to assume that the Albiceleste will have an effortless win in the semifinal on 9 July.
The Argentine national team did not face the toughest competition in their group at the America’s Cup. However, they were still considered the clear favourite throughout the tournament. Lionel Scaloni’s team breezed through the group stage, effortlessly winning all three games and securing the top spot. However, during the quarter-finals, they came close to collapsing against Ecuador. The regular time ended in a 1-1 draw, but Argentina showed their strength in the penalty shootout.
The Canadian team has become a major sensation in the America’s Cup. Despite not being seen as a strong contender to advance from their group, Jesse Marsch’s team surprised everyone by finishing second after starting the tournament with a 0-2 defeat to Argentina. Canada caused quite a stir in the quarter-finals when they eliminated a strong Venezuela team in a thrilling penalty shoot-out.
