COPA AMERICA 2024 - Groups / Scheds / Posting Thread

[BMR Genie]

The debate is going to be pure comedy/entertainment.
We won't get any decent information from either candidate. I just want to see

1. How they control Trump in the debate. He was off the rails in 2020.
2. What dumb comments will be made by both that each side will use to ridicule them for weeks.

Don't forget to update WAS thread later. lol

Donald Trump vs Joe Biden Debate #1 June 27th *LIVE DISCUSSION

 

[Franz555]

Obviously, you know our politics south of the border (the Canadian border that is).

I've been a fan of several presidents over the years , but these 2 dont really merit a ranking imo

 

[BMR Genie]

I was looking at the USA / Panama game. Excuse my ignorance but I was shocked to see FIFA rank The US #11. Thats a better ranking then most of Euro 24 teams. When I looked into their line up vs Bolivia I realized how much individual talent they have right now. The front 3 of Pulisic ( AC Milan ) , Weah ( Juventus ) and Balogun ( Monaco ) are top line strikers. McKennie of Juventus is another experienced midfielder , and Adams is just coming off an injury filled season @ Bournemouth. Reyna of Nottingham is another player with huge upside ( and transfer value @ 21yrs of age ). I'm having a hard time seeing Panama's young and questionable defense , stopping that US 6 man front. Loving the Over 2.5 @ 1.87. Any thoughts ?

It's so amazing how you know each of their particular league clubs, Franz.

I am not good at giving predictions but if you decide to take the over, all I can say is.. I hope to see a high-scoring goal for this game later. Good luck!

I think I'll pass on that.
Politcal discussions seem to get people riled up and create drama.
Remember this post by you Genie?

Another big game challenge for CR tonight.

Good luck, Franz!

Brazil are an elite side on this planet. They are due , and angry enough , to explode on some poor team. Paraguay suit that need
Costa Rica played their hearts out and defended very well' That said , Brazil were robbed in the 1st half with 3 penalty claims that went unheard. Replays showed that both contact plays were 100% PK's and the hand ball was a 50/50 decision.
Final stats :

Possession - Brazil 70%
Shots - Brazil 19 - 2
Dangerous Attacks : Brazil 90 - 11

Genie , I would also have celebrated a tie against mighty Brazil. It would be a national holiday in most countries. An amazing result

Just giving my 2 cents

Respect

 

[playmaker]

Take CR +1.5 -110, smart pick, Brazil will destroy Paraguay

 

[BMR Genie]

CR is going to play full defense again tonight. Even if they want to possess the ball, it will be hard...so defense all the way.

 

[Franz555]

Brazil vs Paraguay : 9pm

Brazil -1 1st half @ 3.10 ( 1 unit )
Brazil 1st half @ 1.88 ( 2 units )
Brazil -1.5 @ 2.08 ( 2 units )


Against Colombia , a 2 - 1 loss , Paraguay were steamrolled out of the gates. Down 2 - 0 by halftime , changes were made early 2nd half. Almiron , arguably the best player to come out of Paraguay , was taken off in the 59th min. He is the heart and soul of the team and had very little impact . He is worth a transfer value of $30 mill with Newcastle , a diminishing value , and seems to be regressing of late. Perhaps he has a nagging injury that isn't being spoken of ? The other 2 forwards Barrios ( Libertad Asuncion $3 mill ) and Enciso ( Brighton $22 mill ) who played limited minutes in the EPL. The midfield is inexperience by comparison to Brazil with Benitez of Libertad Asuncion in Paraguay ( $ 460k ) Cubas of VCR and Villasante of Gremio ( $10 mill ).
Brazil starting 3 up front were Viniscus Jr ( $ 190 mill - R.Madrid ), Rodrygo ( $104 mill - RMadrid ) and Barcelona star Raphina ( $50 mill )

Brazil NEED to win this game in order to travel back to Brazil without a lynching mob awaiting them. The weather in Paradise , Nevada at game time is 41c / 106f. The team that owns the possession game , and limits the chasing of shadows , wins this going away. Expect Paraguayan players to fake injuries and stall as much as possible in order to catch their breath in the sweltering heat

I really can't see this playing out any different. I see a 4+ goal game for Brazil. I think they come out like gang-busters.

Yeah... Columbia coming on strong after CR held tough for most of 1H.

They became disorganized after that 1st penalty on Sequiera the goalkeeper.

Costa Rica is a bad bad team like the United States
