On July 11th at 8:00 AM, Uruguay will face Colombia in the Copa América semi-finals. Before the game, the Copa América website has previewed some key points of the match.
The Copa América website wrote that Colombia has scored 11 goals in this tournament, and their impressive attack cannot be separated from their captain, J Rodríguez. Since 2011, J Rodríguez has been chasing Messi’s record of 5 assists in a single Copa América. This means, against Uruguay, if J Rodríguez can deliver another assist, he will break the record held by Messi.
Speaking of Uruguay, the Copa América website wrote, “Uruguay has only conceded one goal in four games, they are very solid in defense and have scored 9 goals on the offensive end, which is impressive. However, right-back Nández is suspended due to a red card, which could bring some changes. Meanwhile, Arroyo was injured against Brazil and his participation in this game is also uncertain.”
It is worth mentioning that the Copa América website also provided this data: in 2001 and 2011, Colombia and Uruguay both made it to the final of the tournament and ultimately won the championship.
