The winners of this blockbuster contest will face the winners of the last-eight tie between Colombia and Panama in the semi-finals. The loser will not only be sent home packing, but it will be as close to a national calamity as it gets.
Uruguay faces Brazil in a Copa America 2024 quarterfinal match on Saturday, July 6, 2024, (7/6/24) at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Lionel Messi and Argentina will try to match Spain’s feat of three consecutive major titles when the Copa America kicks off Thursday night.
Coming off championships in the 2021 Copa America and the 2022 World Cup, Messi will be four days shy of his 37th birthday when the Albiceleste take the field against Canada at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta.
“I want to enjoy a couple of more matches being a world champion,” Messi said after Argentina beat France on penalty kicks to win the 2022 World Cup final.
He has 10 goals in 10 international appearances since, raising his total to 108 in 182 games for Argentina’s national team. He is either tied for second with Ali Daei or one behind, depending on whether a disputed goal by the Iranian is counted, trailing only Portugal’s Cristiano Ronaldo at 128.
“It is not easy to compete again after winning it all,” Argentina coach Lionel Scaloni said.
Argentina and Uruguay are tied with 15 Copa titles each, followed by Brazil with nine. No other nation has won more than two.
Brazil features an attack headed by Vinícius Júnior and Rodrygo, just off a Champions League title with Real Madrid, and Raphinha. The emerging star is 17-year-old Endrick, who joins Real Madrid this summer.
“If you look at every position in their proposed starting 11, it’s probably one of the world’s best players,” U.S. coach Gregg Berhalter said.
Spain is the only nation to win three consecutive major titles: the European Championship in 2008 and 2012 around the 2010 World Cup.
A look at the tournament:
Expanded field
There will be 16 teams, just as in 2016. The U.S., Mexico, Canada, Costa Rica, Panama and Jamaica join the 10 South American nations after qualifying from North and Central America and the Caribbean.
Back in the USA
Ecuador was to host the tournament under the rotation of CONMEBOL, South American soccer’s governing body, but declined. The tournament was then moved to the U.S., which also hosted the special centennial Copa America in 2016 as Chile won on penalty kicks over Argentina at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
Eleven NFL stadiums are being used, including eight of the 11 U.S. venues for the 2026 World Cup, plus three smaller MLS homes. The final will be at Miami Gardens, Florida, on July 14, starting five hours after the European Championship final in Berlin.
CONMEBOL says more than 1 million tickets have been sold for the 32 matches. The 2016 tournament drew just under 1.5 million, and the 2019 tournament in Brazil about 850,000. The 2021 Copa was played mostly without fans because of the coronavirus pandemic.
U.S. team
This will be the biggest test for the U.S. team before the World Cup — the Americans get an automatic berth as co-host along with Mexico and Canada — and most Europe-based players are expected to skip next year’s CONCACAF Gold Cup.
Christian Pulisic, Tyler Adams and Weston McKennie are the core of a team that returns 18 players from the 2022 World Cup roster.
“A World Cup on home soil is the biggest thing that you know we’ll probably do in our career,” Pulisic said. “It’s a special time for this sport in America.”
World Cup test?
In 2016, CONMEBOL partnered with the U.S. Soccer Federation, which was in charge of most of the logistics. This time, CONMEBOL is co-organizing the tournament with CONCACAF, the governing body of North and Central America and the Caribbean.
Unlike during the World Cup, the organizers have only short-term access to venues. At Hard Rock, a concert is scheduled for July 6, between the last group stage game and the final, and a new grass surface will be installed.
At MetLife Stadium, where a semifinal will be played July 9, staff will look at it as a preview for the World Cup final on July 19, 2026. The stadium has a camera system designed by Arecont Vision and managed by Genetec Security Center that was installed before the 2014 Super Bowl and a new system by Axis Communications is being put in place this summer in the seating bowl with 80 8K, 41-megapixel cameras.
“We can see every seat all the time. I think it serves as a good deterrent,” said Daniel DeLorenzi, vice president of security and safety services. “We have three drone detection systems. ... Not only can we track the drone, but more importantly, we can track where the operator is.”
Uruguay won all three of their group games, conceding just once in the meeting with second-placed Panama, to set up this quarter-final clash in Las Vegas. Marcelo Bielsa's side have been impressive with and without the ball, displaying the kind of energy that the former Leeds boss is famous for demanding, and a nice mixture of youth and experience that could see them go far in this tournament.
Brazil only managed to win one of their group games – a 4-1 thrashing of Paraguay last weekend – but still managed to advance in second place behind Colombia. Considering the amount of attacking talent at their disposal it seems crazy that Brazil have been struggling to score goals, and with Real Madrid's Vinicius Jr suspended for this game there's an opportunity for another member of the squad to put that right.
Le Celeste are likely to be unchanged after Bielsa resisted the temptation to rotate his side heavily for the final group game, even though their quarter-final place was already guaranteed.
The former Athletic Bilbao boss has made only one change to his starting line-up during the tournament, with Nicolas de la Cruz replacing Giorgian De Arrascaeta after Uruguay's 3-1 victory over Panama.
Vinicius Junior picked up a second yellow card against Colombia and will have to sit this one out through suspension. Given how stout Uruguay has been defensively, the Brazilian offense will be up against it to carve opportunities without their star forward.
With Vinicius out, 17-year-old Endrick could start up front, allowing Rodrygo to move onto either flank, having been toothless as the primary striker. Arsenal's Gabriel Martinelli has been on the bench for Brazil this Copa America, and he will battle Raphinha and Savio for the final spot in attack.

Uruguay won all three of their group games, conceding just once in the meeting with second-placed Panama, to set up this quarter-final clash in Las Vegas. Marcelo Bielsa's side have been impressive with and without the ball, displaying the kind of energy that the former Leeds boss is famous for demanding, and a nice mixture of youth and experience that could see them go far in this tournament.
Brazil only managed to win one of their group games – a 4-1 thrashing of Paraguay last weekend – but still managed to advance in second place behind Colombia. Considering the amount of attacking talent at their disposal it seems crazy that Brazil have been struggling to score goals, and with Real Madrid's Vinicius Jr suspended for this game there's an opportunity for another member of the squad to put that right.
Le Celeste are likely to be unchanged after Bielsa resisted the temptation to rotate his side heavily for the final group game, even though their quarter-final place was already guaranteed.
The former Athletic Bilbao boss has made only one change to his starting line-up during the tournament, with Nicolas de la Cruz replacing Giorgian De Arrascaeta after Uruguay's 3-1 victory over Panama.
Vinicius Junior picked up a second yellow card against Colombia and will have to sit this one out through suspension. Given how stout Uruguay has been defensively, the Brazilian offense will be up against it to carve opportunities without their star forward.
With Vinicius out, 17-year-old Endrick could start up front, allowing Rodrygo to move onto either flank, having been toothless as the primary striker. Arsenal's Gabriel Martinelli has been on the bench for Brazil this Copa America, and he will battle Raphinha and Savio for the final spot in attack.
