Both teams started this tournament off against one another and now they’ll finish it the same way.
The United States and Colombia meet in the Third Place Game in Copa America, as they both were bounced in the semi finals by Argentina and Chile, respectively.
United States
The United States has not faired well against top teams here in this Copa America.
They fell to Colombia 2-0 in the opening match in a game where it could have gotten much worse. Then, in the semis, Argentina was way too much for them to handle in a 4-0 defeat.
However, the United States still have a lot to play for here. This team made it out of the group that was one of the toughest in the tournament. In fact, they even managed to win the group on goal differential.
They did miss 3 key players in their match against Argentina, that really did sway the possession game. However, they still couldn’t even manage a shot on goal in the loss.
With a place on the podium still on the line, this United States team has to attack here, especially early on.
They also must worry about not getting stretched defensively. In their two losses to Colombia and Argentina, the Americans were stretched on many occasions and allowed many through balls. Look for them to hold firm on that back line and not allow James Rodriguez to get any free space inside the 18.
Colombia
Colombia had a very difficult semi final. A 2 hour rain delay didn’t help their cause by any means either.
They were caught almost off guard by a quick early strike from Chile, a game that finished 2-0 as they could never recover.
James Rodriguez has usually been the spark to this team, but his tournament quality was rather down. He was in form against the United States and sparked the 2-0 win in the opening match of the tournament.
Carlos Sanchez will miss this match, which will cause some shifting in the front for Colombia. Sanchez was shown a red card, which was out of frustration, in the semi final game against Chile.
José Pékerman’s future is also in jeopardy right now. There is a lot of pressure on him to be relived of his duties for this team not making the final. Albeit, a win here could remove some of that pressure.
Free Colombia vs. United States Copa America Prediction:
The United States did hang tough in their opening match against Colombia. They just couldn’t put the ball in the back of the net to gain any sort of momentum.
Look for them to really emphasize on holding firm in the back, as that is what has hurt them in both losses here in Copa America.
4* Free Copa America Betting Pick: Colombia 6/4
Still, Colombia has too many weapons here. Look for the United States to find the back of the net once, but it’s all for not as James Rodriguez and the Colombians take 3rd place.
