Argentina has their semi-final opponent set in the 2024 Copa America: Canada!
Jesse Marsch’s squad secured their place in the last four with a dramatic penalty shootout victory over Venezuela on Friday. The match remained tied 1-1 after regulation time, with no extra time played.
After five successful penalties each, Wilker Ángel’s attempt was saved by Maxime Crepeau, and Ismael Kone slotted home the winning penalty to send Canada through.
This sets the stage for a rematch of the Copa America opener, where Argentina emerged victorious 2-0.
The semi-final will be played in New Jersey on Tuesday, marking Canada’s historic journey as the fourth Concacaf nation to reach the Copa América semi-finals, following Mexico, Honduras, and the United States.
