Uruguay and Panama will be making their presentation in this Copa America 2024 at Miami’s Gardens Hard Rock Stadium for the group C alongside United States and Bolivia.
Uruguay is the heavy favorite to top the group, and they will aim to improve their performance compared to the last Copa America, where they lost to Colombia in a penalty shootout in the quarterfinals.
On the other hand, Panama will compete in the Copa America for the second time in the country’s history. The first time was back in 2016, where they couldn’t advance past the group stage, but they did win their first-ever match in the competition, 2-1 against Bolivia.
Uruguay’s lineup
This will be Marcelo’s Bielsa team to face Panama in the first match:
Sergio Rochet; Nahitan Nández, Ronald Araujo, Mathías Olivera, Matias Viña; Federico Valverde, Manuel Ugarte, Giorgian de Arrascaeta; Facundo Pellistri, Darwin Nuñez and Maximiliano Araujo.
