Copa America final is as fiery as EURO

RECORD AUDIENCE, TICKET PRICES SKYRIGHT

With two exciting semi-finals (Argentina beat Canada and Colombia beat Uruguay), and a record number of spectators, Copa America 2024 once again proved to be as attractive as EURO. These matches contributed to setting a new attendance record at the Copa America 2024 semi-finals, with a total of more than 150,000 spectators, respectively MetLife Stadium (more than 80,000 spectators) and Bank of America (more than 70,000 spectators) - more than the two semi-finals at EURO 2024 (120,000 spectators).

Matches with the Argentina team always attract a lot of spectators.

Attendance at the semi-finals of EURO 2024 is expected to be lower than capacity, partly because the host team Germany was eliminated early in the quarter-finals. Meanwhile, at Copa America 2024, despite the host team USA being eliminated early in the group stage, attendance numbers have continued to increase due to the nature of the matches.

According to AS (Spain): "Tickets for the final match were put on sale by the South American Football Confederation (CONMEBOL) since the Copa America entered the knockout rounds on July 4, and were sold out early. Prices are skyrocketing. In the group stage, some matches with the Argentine team played, ticket prices have increased to 10,000 USD (more than 250 million VND)/ticket. Meanwhile, the average ticket price has also reached 2,000 USD (about 50.8 million VND)/ticket".

R ODRIGUEZ RESURRECTS , M ESSI AND RGENTINA LEVEL I WORRY

Midfielder James Rodriguez, 32, thought to be past his prime, is reviving brilliantly at Copa America 2024. The veteran star has had 6 assists in 5 matches, scored 1 goal, and won 4 Man of the Match awards. Becoming the player with the most assists in a Copa America in history, Rodriguez even surpassed Messi's record (5 assists in 2021).

Colombia is a formidable team.

This is the third time in history that Colombia has reached the Copa America final, after winning the title in 2001 and finishing second in 1975. The Colombian team, currently led by Argentine coach Nestor Lorenzo, has an unbeaten record of 28 matches since March 2022 (22 wins, 6 draws). The final therefore promises to be very exciting.
