To be honest, I'm a little surprised that people predict a huge number of yellow cards in the free betting contest ... 20+ cards in 4 games, seriously? While you guys may know something that I don't know, even my 12-cards prediction seems a bit exaggerated to me, ^{[I understand that this tournament is more dynamic, but still]}.

Im expecting a final between Argentina and Brazil if some surprises dont come. Chile looks really bad this year and i dont think they have a much chance in this match. Uruguay is also fighting hard to score they play good but Cavani has been struggling the entire tournament so far

Trofo, Btw, my searches for the situation you mentioned were unsuccessful ... But, this is really a discovery for me ... and the point is not even that until this year I did not track COPA America, but that I held a parallel with the European championship, (but I will still hope that in the end I will be right with my prediction).

Peru is the first semi-finalist, winning on penalties in a game that had six goals and two red cards. I hope you guys stayed late to watch it, it was well worth it. Possibly the best one so far, first match in this tournament that mattered, but don't get me started on the format we had this year, 20 matches just to eliminate two teams who were missing half of their players due to covid. Anyways, Peru should have won in regulation imo, but they gave up an easy goal from a corner with a man up, followed by a last-minute equalizer. Paraguay clearly missed having Almiron in their lineup, he was their best player in the previous matches...

I'm glad they went back to having no extra time after 90 minutes and instead we go straight to penalties, it's refreshing, plus it's 1 point for those of us who had the game as a draw ...not sure if the draw would've held the way these guys play defense. lol

So talking about hot blood south americans, first game yesterday had 8 yellow cards. 2 of those were 2nd yellows. Then in second game Jesus had a start like he watched Bruce Lee movie to prepare for the match. Did you guys ever see Jesus make a strong start in Europe? Copa brings the most emotions and rivalry from these guys and over cards or red cards are always just waiting to happen.

Copa America semi-finals we got:
Peru vs Brazil
Colombia vs Argentina
For me this is one of the best championships where Messi played with Argentina if not the best in terms of fighting, desire, influence and the numbers he is getting.
If Argentina is destined to win the championship, it is definitely Leo’s championship and if you lose the championship it will definitely be Because there weren't enough players to help him at crucial moments.

Ahh man, those Superbru wankers were handing out slam points for the meaningless group stage matches only and not the quarter-finals.

I thought we would get one, this is such a bummer, especially since we had two draws. Bad Superbru, baaad Superbru! 

Does anyone know if the third-place match will be included, or it's just the semis and the final?

We have different scoring for Copa America, rounds 1 to 5 also had 4 matches, just like the quarter-finals, but apparently no slam points here. Btw, someone from the general standings has 4 slam points...


According to Wikipedia, there is one, 9th July @Estádio Nacional Mané Garrincha.

Whoops, sorry, I knew I forgot about the mini contest haha.

And yes, third place for Copa (not for EURO) I answered that myself some time back...

And yes, toma, I was surprised myself. I booked one at around 173/10 on Fairlay, though I did notice it was even 18/1++ at Sportsbet, and I bet you there's a super boost for whoever's waiting -- 20/1 is too good to ignore.

I mean man, these were the last finalists! Yes Brazil hammered them in the end, but you know, draws, penalties. That sort of thing lives and breathes in LatAm football;)

Thanks for reminder about competition. I thought that both games will be played tomorrow.
Personally, I expect Brazil to reach comfortable win. For Argentina it's not going to be easy, but I hope to see Brazil - Argentina final.
But when I look at schedule, final will be played so late in the night from Sunday to Monday. Why not to play on Saturday, especially because there will be no EURO games. They probably forcus on South America people, but their schedule is one of reasons why Copa is so poorly covered in Europe.
