It definitely feels like it should be at least a<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>semifinal match but we\u2019ll take it a stage early. Colombia finishing atop of their group was<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>definitely a surprise and the fact that Panama made it to the quarter finals at all was pretty<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>unexpected for many.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Uruguay vs Brazil, Saturday, July 6th<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Uruguay enters the knockout stage after going 3-for-3 in the group stage where they outscored<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>the opposition 9-1. That included wins over the United States and Panama which solidified their<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>spot at the top of the table. They\u2019re led by Darwin Nunez and Maximiliano Araujo who lead the<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>team with two goals a piece. They have trust in the net thanks to keeper Sergio Rochet who has<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>two clean sheets and looks to be busy against Brazil. The nation hasn\u2019t found their way out of<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>the quarterfinals since the 2011 iteration of the tournament when they ran the table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While it\u2019s not a surprise that they\u2019ve made it out of the group stage, it is a surprise that they<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>didn\u2019t finish on top. The Brazilians are coming off a hard fought match against Colombia to<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>round out group play. It went down to the wire but with a draw, they find themselves lining up<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>across from Uruguay in the knockout stage. They will be without key forward Vinicius Junior who<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>is out after one too many yellow cards. As usual, much was expected for Selecao, especially<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>after finishing as the runner-ups at the previous tournament and taking the whole thing in 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anything less than hoisting a trophy will be seen as failure for the fifth ranked squad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Betting Odds<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Uruguay +180<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Draw +205<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Brazil +174<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Colombia vs Panama, Saturday, July 6th<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Colombia came out of a battle with Brazil to cap off the group stage this week. The draw gives<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>them a 26-match unbeaten streak heading into the quarterfinal round of the Copa America.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While they were already through on points, finishing ahead of Brazil allowed them an easier<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>path as they avoided Uruguay en route to a possible semi final date. They will be without<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>midfielder Jefferson Lerma who racked up too many yellow cards prior to the knockout phase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Crystal Palace defender, Daniel Munoz leads the team with two goals from the backend but<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>they\u2019ve<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Panama wasn\u2019t picked to finish in the top two of their group. No, that spot was reserved for the<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>United States. Aside from a loss to Uruguay during the group phase, Panama did their job,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>winning two out of three matches. That includes defeating the United States 2-1 thanks to Jose<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fajardo\u2019s second goal of the tournament.
