Match Preview

The final Sunday fixture at the Copa America will see the 15-time winners Uruguay take on Panama in Group C action at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami. Uruguay, under Marcelo Bielsa, come into this match with high morale after an emphatic 4-0 victory over Mexico. Known for their intense pressing and defensive solidity, Uruguay have kept five clean sheets in their last seven matches. Key players like Luis Suarez, Darwin Nunez, and captain Jose Gimenez are set to make a significant impact.

Panama, led by Thomas Christiansen, aim to build on their solid start to the 2026 World Cup qualifiers despite a recent 1-0 loss to Paraguay. They have shown resilience in CONCACAF competitions but have a mixed record against CONMEBOL teams. Panama will rely on key players such as Adalberto Carrasquilla and top scorers Jose Fajardo and Cecilio Waterman to challenge Uruguay.

Uruguay aims to continue their march towards a record 16th title, while Panama looks to defy expectations and make a mark in the tournament. With key players on both sides ready to shine, the stage is set for an exciting encounter at Hard Rock Stadium.
