Canada are on course to book their spot in the knockout stages of Copa America 2024 as they face off against Chile in a Group A finale.
Jesse Marsch’s men suffered a 2-0 loss to World Cup holders Argentina in their opening match before rebounding with a 1-0 win over Peru.
Chile have struggled to match the heights that led them to win this competition back-to-back in 2015 and 2016 and know they need to secure their first win of the tournament if they are to progress to the quarterfinals. They will hope veteran striker Alexis Sanchez can deliver them a moment of magic.

Canada vs. Chile live updates, highlights from Copa America 2024
10 mins to kickoff: Argentina manager Lionel Scaloni isn’t the only suspended national team coach who won’t be on the sidelines in Group A action tonight. Chile coach Ricardo Gareca was also hit with a one-game suspension by CONMEBOL for delaying the restart in Chile’s last game, against Argentina.
30 mins until kickoff: Canada coach Jesse Marsch rewards Jacob Shaffelburg with a start after his tremendous performance off the bench against Peru. He dominated the left side and Peru couldn’t keep him from delivering dangerous crosses over and over again.
45 mins until kickoff: The huge news is that Chile’s Man of the Match in their 1-0 loss against Argentina, Claudio Bravo, is out of tonight’s match against Canada. That’s a massive loss for Chile and a huge boost to Canada. Gabriel Arias takes his place, but the veteran Argentine-born goalkeeper has never played club soccer outside the continent and has only 16 caps with Chile since 2018. The Chilean backline will be under a lot of pressure to keep the ball moving and help Arias feel comfortable coming off his line.
50 minutes until kickoff: And here’s Canada!
Massive opportunity ahead! 💪

hour, 5 mins before kickoff: After the scorching heat of Kansas City, Kan. and New Jersey last match, tonight’s game in Orlando will be considerably cooler. With showers in the area, the temperature is currently sitting at 75 degrees F.
1 hour, 20 mins before kickoff: Canada’s 1-0 win over Peru was Les Rouges’ first shutout against a South American opponent since a scoreless draw against Brazil in June 2001. Canada captain Alphonso Davies was less than 1-year-old at that time.

1 hour, 40 mins before kickoff: There’s a ton on the line tonight for Canada and Chile in Orlando. If Argentina takes care of business with a win or draw against Peru, Canada only needs draw to advance over Chile. But Chile knows that it needs to win tonight, meaning that we should see some goals and plenty of end-to-end action in Central Florida.
2 hours before kickoff: Can Canada book themselves a spot in the quarterfinals of Copa America? They’re seemingly better poised to do so than neighbors USA…
