Brazil Battle Peru In Copa America Final Rematch

The international break is still upon us and while the end is in sight with domestic football being set to return sooner rather than later, we’re still more than happy to sit back and soak in what countries from around the world have to offer. We’re still some distance away from next year’s big tournaments but friendlies and qualifiers can still give us a good indication of what to expect. Today, we’ll be looking at a pretty intriguing rematch,

Brazil Face Peru In Huge Copa America Final

After a thoroughly entertaining and dramatic tournament, the 2019 edition of Copa America is set to come to an end tomorrow night as hosts Brazil go head to head with heavy underdogs Peru. The expectation is that the Brazilians will lift the trophy for the first time since back in 2007, but the Peruvians won’t want to let this opportunity slip them by as they try and become champions for the first time since 1975.

Home Advantage Can See Brazil Over the Line against Argentina

Brazil vs Argentina, one of the biggest games in world football. These two meet in the first Copa America semi final on Wednesday, with a place in the final up for grabs. The winner will take on either Chile or Peru in the final, and whoever does make it through will be long odds on to win the tournament, and expected to beat their opponents.

Brazil are the favourites for this game as the hosts,

Colombia Face Chile In Copa America Quarter-Final

The Copa America quarter-finals are underway, and after the drama of Brazil’s penalty shootout win over Paraguay, it feels like we’re starting to get down to the business end of the tournament. Every single team remaining knows that they’re just a win or two away from playing in the final, which could bring out a few surprise heroes and unlikely performances. The game that we’re going to be taking a look at today will be contested between Colombia and Chile,

Chile & Uruguay Clash In Copa America

The final set of group stage games are set to take place in the next day or so, as we prepare for what should be a series of really entertaining knockout stage clashes. Of course, we’ve still got to find our way through and figure out what the official line-up for the next round is going to be. One game that is going to help decide that will take place between Chile and Uruguay, who are both considered to be dark horses in this tournament.

Argentina Take On Qatar In Huge Copa America Showdown

The Copa America has already provided us with enough thrills and spills to last a lifetime, but even with that being the case, it seems as if the tournament has still got more to give. We’re only just coming to the end of the group stages and plenty of nations will still feel like they’re in with a realistic chance of winning the whole thing. Some would’ve resigned themselves to going home early, but two countries that are well and truly still in the hunt (bizarrely enough) are Qatar and,

Brazil Face Key Copa America Clash Against Peru

The beautiful game has provided us with a series of memorable moments on the international stage throughout the course of the summer so far, which is great, because many fans seemed to believe that we’d struggle without a World Cup or European Championship to focus on. Alas, the Copa America and Women’s World Cup have both been serving up the goods as of late, with the Copa America arguably having the most attention of them all.

Free Flowing Uruguay Fancied to Comfortably Beat Japan

Anyone who saw Uruguay open up their Copa America campaign with a fantastic 4-0 victory over Ecuador will no doubt have been impressed. They had a great flow about their game, winning the ball back in midfield before allowing their attacking players to do their thing and create plays. That all resulted in four goals on the night and to be honest, that was a fair reflection of the game, Uruguay were very impressive and look genuine contenders for the trophy this summer.

Colombia Set to Make Light Work of Qatar

Colombia caused the first shock of the Copa America 2019 with a win in their opening game against Argentina. Now they face someone who they should beat, in Qatar, and have to handle being a favourite and show that they can dominate games.

There was no dominance shown in that first game at all, in fact, it was a game that Argentina completely dominated and should have won. They had chances in the first half to take the lead but couldn’t find a way past the resilient at times Colombian defence.

Should big clubs be playing much smaller clubs in their pre-season friendlies?

Brazil Fancied to Build on Strong Copa America Start

Brazil are strongly fancied to win the Copa America this year as hosts and perhaps one of the few things that could beat them in this tournament is not handling the pressure that is on them. After the first game, while it wasn’t perfect, I am expecting to see them settle better and show their real class when they come up against Venezuela on Tuesday night.

Uruguay And Ecuador Clash In Copa America

The Copa America got underway with Brazil vs Bolivia last night, as the Brazilians were able to take their first step towards what they hope will be a successful tournament. Beyond that, though, there are many, many other top nations in the running to try and lift the trophy in just a few short weeks. We’re going to be looking at two more of them today, as Uruguay and Ecuador prepare to square off. With the two nations being located at opposite ends of South America,

Brazil Host Bolivia In Copa America

International football is back in more ways than one, as we bridge the gap between the domestic seasons. The Women’s World Cup and Africa Cup of Nations, alongside the European Championship qualifiers and Nations League, have certainly received plenty of attention as of late. On top of that, however, you’ve also got Copa America coming up. It represents the very best of the Americas in more ways than one, and with the tournament commencing shortly,
