Brazil vs Uruguay

Washington, Jul 3 (PL) After the end of the group stage of the 48th edition of the Copa America, the duel between Uruguay and Brazil stands out as the most striking of the quarter-final matches.

La Garra Charrúa, leader of section C with nine points from three victories, nine goals scored and only one conceded, is one of the teams with a harmonious game and order in all positions on the field capable of being a candidate for the crown of the tournament.

On the rival side, the Canarinha, second in group D, as a result of one victory and two draws, has a very strong eleven but so far unable to display all its potential and, except for the match against Paraguay, has shown irregularities in its tactical performance.

The Uruguay-Brazil duels are a classic at continental level with historical overtones that date back to the "Maracanazo" of the 1950 World Cup, an event hosted by the South American giant, who lost the final 2-1 to the Uruguayans at the emblematic Maracana in Rio de Janeiro in one of the most surprising results in the most universal of sports.

Marcelo "El Loco" Bielsa, a manager with vast experience at the helm of national teams, will have to plan his strategy well against the Verdeamarela, as a careless mistake could cost them elimination due to the quality of Vinícius Junior, Rodrygo, Raphinha, Éder Militao, Lucas Paqueta and company, all world-class players.

The Brazilians and Uruguayans will face off next Saturday, July 6, at the Allegiant stadium in Paradise, Nevada, for a place in the semifinals.

In other quarterfinal matches, Argentina will face Ecuador on Thursday, in the start of the sudden death phase, Venezuela-Canada on Friday and Colombia will face Panama on Saturday.
