The Brazilian press showed no mercy on the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/brazil" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Brazilian national team</a>, which drew 0-0 with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/costa-rica" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Costa Rica</a> in their opening match of the 2024 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/copa-america-2024" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Copa America</a>. Despite outshooting Costa Rica 19-2 and dominating possession with 74-26%, Costa Rica clung on to secure a historic draw. 



Dorival Júnior was heavily criticized on social media, being called “a lame duck coach” and “a waste of space” by many Brazilians who watched the match. Public opinion on the Brazilian national team is at an all-time low, as Brazil has managed only 5 wins, 4 draws, and 5 losses since the 2022 FIFA World Cup.



On the other hand, the Brazilian media did not hold back on the national team, with players like Vinícius Júnior receiving a rating of 4.

<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/copa-america/why-is-keylor-navas-not-playing-for-costa-rica-in-copa-america-2024"></div>


Some of the headlines read, “Frustating: Brazil disappoints and draws 0-0 with Costa Rica in the Copa America debut,” wrote O Tempo Sports. “It was a frustrating debut” was on the site of Ge Globo.

 Extra wrote that “Brazil had a poor debut and tied Costa Rica 0-0 in the Copa America.” For Brazil, their poor Copa America continues a trend of disappointing matches during World Cup qualifying, where they currently sit sixth.

Brazil’s next match at the Copa America will be against Colombia, who are on an undefeated streak of 24 games. Brazil could enter matchday 3 needing a win to advance to the next round.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/neymar" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Neymar</a> finds himself in a place he dislikes—sidelined—as <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/brazil" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Brazil</a> prepares for their first Copa America match against Costa Rica. He has been rehabilitating his knee after suffering an ACL injury during World Cup qualifying against Uruguay. 



The injury sidelined Neymar for almost the entire Saudi Pro League season, where he was set to be the star for his new club, Al-Hilal. The 32-year-old managed to play only 3 games for his new team.



While in the United States for commercial engagements, rehabilitation, visiting teammates, and playing poker, Neymar took the opportunity to discuss <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/christian-pulisic" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Christian Pulisic</a> and the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/us-national-team" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">USMNT</a>.



<h2>Neymar on USMNT</h2>


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/soccer/david-beckhams-birthday-gift-for-lionel-messi"></div>


Neymar commented, “Pulisic is a great player, and I think the U.S. team is going to surprise at Copa America. From what I saw in the game against Brazil, they have what it takes to be a challenge.”



The USMNT aims for a strong performance in the Copa America to silence critics about the coaching and potential of the team. Pulisic scored one of the goals in the US team’s victory over Bolivia.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/brazil">Brazil </a>is undoubtedly one of the candidates to win the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/copa-america">Copa America 2024</a>, something it could not achieve in the last edition played at home since it lost the final against its historical rival, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/argentina">Argentina</a>.



The team coached by Tite at the time had many world-class stars, but Antony had yet to make his debut for his country’s national team. The moment came on October 8, 2021, when he played in the South American qualifiers for the 2022 World Cup and scored a goal in a 3-1 victory over <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/venezuela">Venezuela</a>.



Since then Antony was called up for his national team’s matches, he was even called to Qatar 2022 World Cup and played 4 out of 5 matches for Brazil. Many people may wonder why he is out of Brazil’s roster for Copa America 2024.



<h2>Antony out of Copa America 2024</h2>



Antony will not be at Copa America 2024 due to disciplinary and personal issues, including ongoing investigations into alleged violent behavior with his partner in 2023.



The last game he played with La Verdeamarela was in a friendly match against Morocco in early September 2023. Days after the match, the striker was dismissed from the national team due to a complaint from his ex-partner.



The statement issued by the Brazilian national soccer team was as follows: “Due to the facts involving Manchester United striker Antony, which need to be investigated, the entity informs that the athlete is discharged from the Brazilian National Team”.

Brazil head into the 2024 Copa America aiming to get back to glory days. The Selecao have plenty of things to prove in the US this year, but they’ll have to do so without <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/neymar">Neymar</a>.



Once again, the country’s biggest star will miss the tournament due to injury. Neymar is still recovering from a ruptured ACL and meniscus in his left knee, which is why he won’t be playing for <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/brazil">Brazil</a> in the 2024 Copa America.



The 32-year-old picked up the injury in October 2023 during his nation’s 2-0 away loss to Uruguay in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. Unfortunately, he couldn’t recover on time to chase continental glory with Brazil.



The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/copa-america">Copa America</a> continues to be elusive for Neymar, who had already missed the 2019 edition, in which Brazil were crowned champions, due to an ankle injury. In 2015, a four-game suspension ruled him out for the remainder of the competition.

<h2>Brazil’s 2024 Copa America roster: Neymar headlines list of absentees</h2>



With Neymar still unavailable due to injury, Vinicius Junior is seen as Brazil’s face for the 2024 Copa America. The Real Madrid winger comes from a fantastic season with his club and a strong performance in the US could increase his Ballon d’Or chances.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/soccer/neymar-hinting-at-possible-move-but-not-at-inter-miami"></div>


But apart from Neymar, Brazil will be missing other big names such as Casemiro, Richarlison, Ederson, and Gabriel Jesus, among others. Only time will tell how far the following 26 players take their country:



Goalkeepers: Alisson (Liverpool), Bento (Atletico PR), Rafael (Sao Paulo)



Defenders: Beraldo (PSG), Eder Militao (Real Madrid), Gabriel (Arsenal), Marquinhos (PSG), Danilo (Juventus), Yan Couto (Girona), Guilherme Arana (Atletico MG), Wendell (Porto)

The Copa America begins for one of the top contenders for the championship: Brazil. Vinicius Jr.’s team boasts great individual talent, although they have not yet fully gelled as a collective unit, considering the caliber of players in <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/copa-america/brazils-squad-for-copa-america-2024-new-faces-and-key-players-in-the-lineup">their squad</a>.



Nevertheless, they demonstrated promising form in recent friendly matches against tough opponents, which undoubtedly makes them favorites. Their opponents will be <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/costa-rica">Costa Rica</a>, who primarily see this tournament as an opportunity to gain experience. Facing Brazil, they are clearly the underdogs, but they will strive to achieve a positive result.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/brazil">Brazil’s</a> national team is a clear candidate to win the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/copa-america">Copa America 2024</a>, as they are looking for redemption after losing the final of the last edition at the hands of their big rival, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/argentina">Argentina</a>.



Richarlison has been a crucial piece since his first games in Brazil’s national squad. He helped his team win Copa America 2019 by scoring a goal in the final and also scored against Argentina in 2021, although the goal was disallowed for offside.



The former Everton striker played a total of 48 games for his country, scoring 20 goals and providing 8 assists in his national career so far. Many people may wonder why Dorival Junior left him out of the squad for Copa America 2024.



<h2>Richarlison out of Copa America 2024</h2>



Richarlison will be out of Brazil’s squad for Copa America 2024 due to a thigh injury suffered at Tottenham. He wasn’t called up for the friendly matches against the United States and Spain, in the hope that the player would recover from his injury, but in the end he was unable to recover.



Coach Dorival Junior explained the situation when asked about it at the press conference: “Richarlison has not been called up for the Copa America because of a new injury he has suffered. He is not available, he had a new injury and that is why he is not on the list”.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/brazil">Brazil</a> will try to repeat the great performance they had in 2019 when they were crowned champions by beating Peru 3-1 on home soil. Gabriel Jesus was part of that conquest but this year he will watch the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/copa-america">Copa America 2024</a> from home.



Gabriel Jesus was an important part of Tite’s team to win the championship in 2019, in fact, he scored one of the three goals in the final against <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/peru">Peru</a>. He was also Brazil’s second top scorer in the tournament, behind Everton.



The 27-year-old striker has a total of 64 caps for his national team, scoring 19 goals and providing 13 assists. Despite this, Dorival Junior decided not to include him in the list for this tournament.



<h2>Gabriel Jesus out of Copa America 2024</h2>



Gabriel Jesus will be out of Brazil’s squad for Copa America 2024 due to a tactical decision by coach Dorival Junior. While Gabriel Jesus was part of the Qatar 2022 World Cup roster, Dorival chose a different direction for the team this year.



In Brazil, a generational shift is beginning to be seen, reflected in some of the new names in this team, such as João Gomes, Guilherme Arana, Savinho, and Ederson dos Santos, among others.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/brazil">Brazil</a> arrives at this tournament with high expectations of winning the trophy they were unable to achieve against <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/argentina">Argentina</a> in 2021 at the Maracana stadium. The goalkeeper of that final, Ederson, will not be present in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/copa-america">Copa America 2024.</a>



Ederson’s season was not his best despite winning the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/premier-league">Premier League</a> title with Manchester City. The goalkeeper suffered muscular injuries that sidelined him for a while.



Brazil’s goalkeeping has always been a problem for coaches in recent times, as they have two world-class goalkeepers like Ederson and Alisson, but whenever one played the other was benched. This year, Ederson will not be the starting goalkeeper and will not be on the bench either.



<h2>Ederson out of Copa America 2024</h2>



The reason why Ederson Moraes is not going to be in Brazil’s roster is because he had suffered a fractured right eye socket in the match against Tottenham for the Premier League.



The replacement for Ederson Moraes will be Rafael, a goalkeeper with extensive experience in Brazilian soccer. The 34-year-old goalkeeper has played for Cruzeiro, Atlético Mineiro and is currently experiencing a great moment at São Paulo.



Dorival Junior will count with this 3 goalkeepers for Copa America 2024: Alisson (Liverpool), Bento (Athletico Paranaense) and Rafael Pires (São Paulo).

Casemiro was one of the best midfielders in the world during an extraordinary eight-year run with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/real-madrid">Real Madrid</a>. The star won everything for the famous Merengues and also conquered the Copa America 2019 playing for <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/brazil">Brazil</a>.



Then, in 2022, Manchester United paid an incredible $70 million transfer fee to fortify a historic rebuilding process under new coach, Erik ten Hag. However, it had the opposite effect for the player and the decline started.



<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/casemiro">Casemiro</a> lost his place as a top player in the world and, a good chance for redemption was the Copa America 2024 alongside names such as Vinicius Jr, Endrick, Raphinha, Rodrygo or Marquinhos. 



It’s going to be a massive challenge for the five-time World Cup champions because <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lionel-messi">Lionel Messi</a> and Argentina are clear favorites to hoist the trophy in the United States.

<h2>Why is Casemiro not playing in Copa America 2024? </h2>



Casemiro is officially out of the Copa America 2024 due to a tactical decision by coach Dorival Junior. Considering his bad performances with Manchester United in the last semester, the midfielder didn’t make the cut in the roster.







“Casemiro deserves all our respect. I had a conversation with him in Manchester about three months ago. I explained to him what I thought about his situation, the situation of his team, and what he needed. It doesn’t mean, because he is not coming now, that he is or will be ruled out later.”


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/copa-america/brazils-squad-for-copa-america-2024-new-faces-and-key-players-in-the-lineup"></div>


These were the players chosen at the position by Brazil: Andreas Pereira (Fulham), Bruno Guimaraes (Newcastle), Douglas Luiz (Aston Villa), Joao Gomes (Wolverhampton) and Lucas Paqueta (West Ham).



Now, the big question is if Casemiro will recover his level in order to be called for the 2026 World Cup. He is 32-years old and, with a boost of quality in the Premier League, there’s no question a spot in the squad should be saved for him.

The match will be played at the SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles and belongs to group D along with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/paraguay">Paraguay</a> and Colombia.



Brazil will seek redemption in this tournament since last year it was unable to lift the cup after losing the final against <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/argentina">Argentina</a> at the Maracana stadium.

On the other hand, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/costa-rica">Costa Rica</a> will be looking to advance beyond the quarterfinals, which was its best record in the country’s history in this tournament. They have a team full of young talent, hoping to surprise in this edition.

Copa America Groups and Standings 2024 - Bolavip US

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/copa-america">Copa America</a> top scorer board had always been a highlight of the tournament, keeping the fans curious to see who ends up scoring the most goals. From Brazilian legend, Zizinho, scoring seventeen goals in the Copa America to the Argentine hero, Gabriel Batitstuta bagging thirteen, all the greats of the game have left their legacy in this competition.



Copa America 2024 will be no different, with expectations for more goals and top-class performances throughout this historic tournament. We delve into the history of the Golden Boot and its importance for the players aiming to win this prestigious individual award.



<h2>Top goalscorers in Copa America history</h2>



History could be made in this year’s Copa America as Paolo Guerrero, Lionel Messi, and Eduardo Vargas are just 3-4 goals away from legendary Norberto Mendez and Zizinho. Both sit at the top of Copa America’s top scorers list with 17 goals each. Guerrero, Messi, and Vargas will do all they can to reach this feat as the trio will want team and individual success.



We showcase a list of all-time scorers in Copa America history and delve deeper into some of their records and history:



<figure class="wp-block-table"><table><tbody><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">Name</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">Country</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">Goals</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">Norberto Mendez</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">Argentina</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">17</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">Zizinho</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">Brazil</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">17</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">Lolo Fernandez</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">Peru</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">15</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">Severino Varela</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">Uruguay</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">15</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">Eduardo Vargas</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">Chile</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">14</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">Paolo Guerrero</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">Peru</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">14</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">Lionel Messi</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">Argentina</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">13</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">Ademir de Menezes</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">Brazil</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">13</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">Gabriel Batistuta</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">Argentina</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">13</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">Jai da Rosa Pinto</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">Brazil</td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">13</td></tr></tbody></table></figure>



<h3>Eduardo Vargas</h3>



Vargas’s club career has seen him travel across South America and parts of Europe, playing for clubs such as Napoli, Valencia, and Flamengo, in a career marked by success. The Chilean has currently a 14-goal mark, only 3 goals away from the two top scorers and he usually starts the game as a sub, but that won’t stop him trying to make history.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20240619_BUS_134447_eduardo-vargas-1024x576_2accc5cb.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="eduardo vargas celebrates goal" class="wp-image-134485" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/06/eduardo-vargas-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/06/eduardo-vargas-300x169.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/06/eduardo-vargas-768x432.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/06/eduardo-vargas-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/06/eduardo-vargas.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Eduardo Vargas of Chile celebrates scoring his team’s first goal during the 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil. Jamie Squire/Getty Images </figcaption></figure>



<h3>Severino Varela</h3>



Varela played in five Copa Americas and notched up 15 goals, earning him status as a Uruguayan soccer great. The forward played most of his soccer club career locally but did have a stint with Argentinian powerhouse Boca Juniors.



<h3>Teodoro Fernandez</h3>



Fernandez played a big role in his team’s success through the 1930s and 1940s. His seven goals in the 1939 Copa America landed him the Golden Boot Award as well as Peru’s first-ever Copa America trophy.



Fernandez always played his soccer locally and never ventured abroad. He is a club legend at Universitario and a national hero, sitting third among Peru’s all-time goal scorers. His 15 goals in the Copa America stand as a record for a Peruvian player, but with Paolo Guerrero only one goal behind and appearing in this year’s tournament, it looks likely he will equal or surpass Fernandez’s record.



<h3>Zizinho (Thomaz Soares da Silva)</h3>



Joint Copa America all time top scorer, Zizinho, amassed an amazing 17 goals during his time in the tournaments. He was not only good at finding the back of the net but his dazzling dribbling skills inspired a host of Brazilian players, including the soccer icon “O Rei” Pele, who often said that Zizinho was the best Brazilian footballer he had ever seen play.



Zizinho never won the Golden Boot but his goals over five Copa America tournaments earned him a place at the top of the list of goal scorers in Copa America history. He definitely would have been a player that everyone would have loved to watch.

<h3>Norberto Mendez</h3>



Mendez’s 17 goals in the Copa America place him as the joint-top scorer of the competition. The amazing part of this feat is that he only played 31 times for his country. He won the Golden Boot in 1945, scoring 6 goals, and in 1946, with 5 goals



His short international career and goals-to-game ratio mark Mendez as one of the greatest of football and the Copa America tournament. Messi will be chasing down his record in this year’s tournament.



<h2>Who will win the Copa America Golden Boot?</h2>



Winning the Golden Boot is always an individual prize for the forwards, wingers, or attacking midfielders. Scoring the most goals in the tournament would be a proud achievement and something no player will forget.



Here are this year’s Copa America’s top 10 favorites to win the Golden Boot:

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/copa-america">Copa America</a> is one of the oldest soccer competitions in the world, with its 108 years. Days before the start of the 48th edition, let’s take a look at the greatest victories and the worst defeats in the history of this tournament.



<h2>1942: Biggest win in the competition ever</h2>



<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/argentina">Argentina</a> won the title against Uruguay in the Copa America 1942 held in Uruguay. Within that incredible campaign, the highest score in the history of the Cup was recorded: Argentina beat Ecuador 12-0. Goals were scored by García, Moreno (x5), Pedernera, Masantonio (x4) and Perruca.



<h2>1975: The second biggest victory also was from the Argentinians</h2>



Peru won the 1975 Copa America and Argentina couldn’t make it through the group stage. But the Albiceleste did achieve the biggest win in that tournament, defeating Venezuela 11-0 in a group stage game. The goals were scored by Killer (x3), Kempes (x2), Zanabria (x2), Ardiles, Gallego, Boveda and Luque.



<h2>1927: Uruguay did achieve the third biggest win in Copa America history</h2>



<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/uruguay">Uruguay</a> finished second in the Copa America 1027 after losing against Argentina, but they did have the first place at being the biggest winner at the tournament. The Uruguayans defeated Bolivia 9-0 with Pedro Petrone and Roberto Figueroa as the stars, scoring a hat-trick each.



<h2>1949: Brazil made it twice at the same Copa America</h2>



<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/brazil">Brazil</a> not only won the Copa America 1949 but also became the top scorer team in that tournament. They achieved the two biggest wins in that edition: first a 10-1 win against Bolivia and then a 9-1 victory over Ecuador.



<h2>2016: The last biggest win at Copa America</h2>

The Copa America 2024 teams will all have their ambitions going into this tournament. Each team has its own history in this year’s <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/copa-america">Copa America</a> – except for Canada as it’s their first appearance. Here’s the run-through on the key players at the Copa America 2024 teams list.



<h2>Argentina</h2>



World Cup champions and defending Copa America champs shouldn’t have any issues coming out of the group comfortably and are expected to get to the business end of the tournament. Key players such as Lionel Messi, Julian Alvarez, Lautaro Martinez and Alexis MacAllister are just a few world-class players that this star-studded <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/copa-america/argentinas-squad-for-copa-america-2024-messi-and-the-rising-stars-to-watch">Argentina Copa America squad</a> possesses.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20240619_BUS_134114_Lionel-Messi-1-1024x576_32bfca22.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="Lionel Messi" class="wp-image-133768" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/06/Lionel-Messi-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/06/Lionel-Messi-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/06/Lionel-Messi-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/06/Lionel-Messi-1-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/06/Lionel-Messi-1.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Lionel Messi of Argentina. IMAGO / Sports Press Photo</figcaption></figure>



<h2>Canada</h2>



The highest-ranked from the Copa America 2024 Concacaf teams, Canada have made a name for themselves on the big stage as their impressive performances in the 2022 World Cup have gained them a lot of followers. The blistering pace of Bayern Munich’s star Alphonso Davies will always be a threat to opposing defenders.



<h2>Chile</h2>



An ageing Chilean squad still has enough power and quality to get out of this group, 35-year-old Alexis Sanchez is playing for Italian champion Inter Milan and fellow national strike partner Bereton Diaz plied his trade in the English Premier League. This Chilean squad, although in need of more youth, still packs a punch to cause problems to their opponents in the group.



<h2>Peru</h2>



A dark horse to get out of the group, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/copa-america/perus-official-squad-for-copa-america-2024-veterans-young-talents-and-expectations">Peru Copa America squad</a> doesn’t have high profile names that the other teams have in the group, although it does have the experience of recent success in the tournament as they made the final in 2019. Feyenoord defender Marcelo Lopez will look to lead the way for the Peruvians.



<h2>Ecuador</h2>



A favorite along with Mexico to get out of Group B, Ecuador showcases a solid spine through their team with key players Moises Caicedo, Piero Hincapie and Willian Pacho all having a strong season where they’ll look to carry on that form into the Copa America.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20240619_BUS_134114_Moises-Caicedo-1024x576_0e317739.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="Moises Caicedo" class="wp-image-69126" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/Moises-Caicedo-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/Moises-Caicedo-300x169.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/Moises-Caicedo-768x432.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/Moises-Caicedo-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/Moises-Caicedo.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Moises Caicedo at Chelsea. Eddie Keogh/Getty Images</figcaption></figure>



<h2>Jamaica</h2>



An outside chance of qualifying for the next stage of the tournament, Jamaica has a few dangerous players who play in England’s top flight that could cause the other teams in the group issues. Powerful West Ham striker Michail Antonio and tricky Fulham winger Bobby De Cordova-Reid will look to cause havoc and give their team every possible chance of advancing to the elimination phase.



<h2>Mexico</h2>



Group B’s Mexico are strong favorites to progress out of their group. Although they have been struggling recently, Mexico will look to improve their form in this year’s Copa America. Premier League star Edson Alvarez and Genoa’s commanding centre-back Johan Vasquez are the top players in <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/copa-america/mexicos-official-squad-for-copa-america-2024-stars-young-talents-and-expectations">Mexico Copa America squad</a>.



<h2>Venezuela</h2>



On paper, Venezuela seems to have the weakest team in the group however as we know, anything can happen in soccer. Having only progressed to the quarter-finals 3 times in their history of Copa America, this year’s tournament also looms to be a difficult test for the Venezuelans. Shining light Yangel Herrera had a sparkling season with Girona and will have to carry the weight of a nation on his shoulders.



<h2>Bolivia</h2>



A difficult campaign lies ahead for Bolivia especially now with their star man Marcelo Moreno hanging up his boots. It will be a tough tournament for the Bolivians but if they were to have any hope of progression, then they will need their key players Miguel Terceros, Carmelo Algarañaz and Rodrigo Ramallo to have a strong and consistent Copa America.



<h2>Panama</h2>



Panama breezed through the qualifiers topping their group undefeated. Can they take that form into the Copa America? If they are to do so, then their main men such as MLS duo Anibal Godoy and Adalberto Carrasquilla will need to show the form from their qualifiers into this tournament.



<h2>USA</h2>



Pressure will be on the host this tournament as they are expected to at least make it out of the group and on to the quarter-finals. With stars playing all over Europe, the vocal home crowds will anticipate results and performances from their team. The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/copa-america/copa-america-2024-full-usa-mens-team-announced-key-players-and-rising-stars">USA Copa America squad</a> counts on superstar Christian Pulisic along with Juventus duo Weston McKennie and Timothy Weah, who will always look to be a danger going forward.

Heavy favorites to top the group, Uruguay has a heap of talent spread around their squad. Veteran Luis Suarez is still scoring goals for fun in the MLS and even though Darwin Nunez has had a hot and cold season at Liverpool, his return for Uruguay is a different story.



<h2>Brazil</h2>



Along with Argentina, Brazil is a firm favorite of Copa America. Even with main man Neymar out of the tournament, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/copa-america/brazils-squad-for-copa-america-2024-new-faces-and-key-players-in-the-lineup">Brazil Copa America squad</a> has an array of talent. Champions League winners Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo will look to lead the way in a tournament where Brazil will look to make amends from their 2021 finals loss to Argentina.

<h2>Colombia</h2>



Luis Diaz will look to lead the way for his national team this Copa America, the flying winger consistently performs for his country along with captain James Rodriguez. Other stars of this impressive <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/copa-america/copa-america-2024-full-colombia-squad-revealed-key-players-and-surprises">Colombia Copa America squad</a> include Rafael Santos Borre and Jefferson Lerma. Colombia will be one of the favorites to go close to winning the Copa America outside of Argentina and Brazil.



<h2>Costa Rica</h2>



It’s going to be a difficult group for Costa Rica to get out from. They have shown in recent times they are capable of a win in the group stage of a World Cup against Japan and giving the almighty Germany a scare. With Brazil and Colombia in their group, it may be a bit too much for the Costa Ricans. Star striker Manfred Ugalde will be a threat in the opposition box throughout the tournament and will be hopeful about taking the chances that come his way.



<h2>Paraguay</h2>



An uphill battle awaits the Paraguayans as they have a difficult group to navigate out of. Newcastle United winger Miguel Almiron and Inter Miami midfielder Matias Rojas will cause fullbacks headaches with their speed and trickery but it may not be enough to get them into the quarterfinals.



<h2>Who makes it to the knockout stage?</h2>



The 2024 Copa America teams are placed into four groups. Each group includes four teams and the top two teams per group will compete in a points system format to qualify for the knockout stage of the tournament. The Copa America teams will get three points for a win, one point for a draw and zero points for a loss. The top two teams from each group then advance to a knockout stage of the tournament where there are four quarter-final matches to be played. The four winners of those games go through to the semi-finals. The semi-finals consist of two matches where the winner will progress to the final.
