Uruguay are the favourites as they take on Canada in the 3rd place playoff of the Copa America, but they don’t have a lot of time to recover from their heartache against Colombia.

Canada are likely delighted with the way things have panned out in their first-ever Copa America. Reaching the last four was beyond their wildest expectations and outperforming the USA is a further boost.

Jesse Marsch didn’t have a lot of time to work with the squad. He took the job earlier this year after being snubbed in the United States. Their only losses at this tournament came against Argentina.

Uruguay found themselves in the tougher half of the draw, so reaching the final was always going to be a tall order. They topped their group before eliminating Brazil via a penalty shootout. Despite having the lion’s share of possession, they were narrowly beaten by Colombia in the semi-finals.

Marcelo Bielsa has made tremendous progress since taking over La Celeste. The former Premier League boss is known for his high-octane style of play and it has worked well with this group of players. He hopes to continue building with Uruguay, so they can compete with the likes of Argentina and Brazil on a regular basis.
