On July 11, Uruguay and Colombia battled for a spot in the Copa América final in the semi-final matchup. CONMEBOL’s official Twitter account confirmed that the attendance for the match reached 70,644.
This edition of the Copa América, held in the United States, has been criticized for its low attendance. Empty seats were consistently visible in broadcast shots, and according to media reports, more than 20% of tickets remained unsold throughout the tournament until the knockout stages.
However, this match finally redeemed the tournament’s image. Not only were tickets completely sold out, but over 70,000 fans packed the stadium, creating the passionate atmosphere synonymous with South American football.
