Argentina defeated Copa America debutants Canada 2-0 in the semi-finals on Wednesday, stretching their unbeaten streak in all competitions to ten matches.
Julian Alvarez’s first-half goal was followed by an unprecedented second-half goal from Argentine icon Lionel Messi, who has surpassed Iran’s Ali Daei to become the second-highest male scorer in international football history, with 109.

Indeed, since losing 1-0 to Argentina in World Cup qualification in February 2022, Colombia has set a new record for the longest period without defeat, with Thursday’s semi-final victory over Uruguay extending their remarkable unbeaten streak to 28 matches (W22 D6) across all tournaments.
Colombia took the lead in the 39th minute thanks to Jefferson Lerma’s header, before Crystal Palace colleague Daniel Munoz got carted off in first-half stoppage time. Despite this, Los Cafeteros fought valiantly against Uruguay and won a narrow 1-0 victory in North Carolina.

Argentina fans will be relieved to learn that Opta’s supercomputer has given Scaloni’s team a 62.9% chance of defending their Copa America title this weekend, but defeating a tenacious Colombia side that has not lost in any competition in over two years will be no easy task. Having said that, the reigning champions, who have plenty of big-game experience, should win, especially if they can find a way to keep in-form Rodriguez from pulling the strings and have their own magician, Messi, step up for the showpiece.
Argentina 2-0 Colombia, predicted by us.
