The world champions will face Canada within the ‘A’ Group match on the Mercedes Bench Stadium in Atlanta on Friday morning, Bangladesh time. After 2016, the US is the host of Copa once more.

However sadly for them, within the first match they’ll face the present champion of Copa and the world champion Argentina. Those that have gained 5 matches in a row will enter the sector as we speak on a mission to retain the title. They final misplaced 2-0 to Uruguay in a World Cup qualifier in November 2021. Then they gained the 2022 World Cup. On this journey, they’re unbeaten in 13 consecutive matches. I misplaced just one.
Argentina has not performed many matches with Canada. They performed a pleasant match in 2010. Argentina beat Canada 5-0 in that match.
Canada is the exact opposite of Argentina. Whereas the Albiceleste have a wealth of Copa expertise, a file 15 titles on show. Canada is coming down there for the primary time. They’re undoubtedly far behind in expertise.
Canada is undoubtedly the underdog towards Argentina led by soccer wizard Lionel Messi and coached by Lionel Scaloni. If Canada in some way attracts on this match, it is going to be thought of a non-event.
Nevertheless, the sunshine of hope for Canada will be Alphonso Davies taking part in in Bayern Munich and Jonathan David taking part in in Lille. The Reds can even draw inspiration and confidence from their expertise of a goalless draw with 2018 World Champions France, a 2-0 win over Trinidad and Tobago and a 2-1 win over Jamaica.
