Copa America 2021 Discussion [Pregame/Match Thread]

Multiple sources are saying FIFA confirmed theres gonna be a COPA DIEGO ARMANDO MARADONA to be played in December between the Euro Champions and Copa America Champions. It would be played in Napoli.

 

Imagine losing the Maradona Cup? Lol

Bomb threat at Rosario airport in Argentina, hours before Lionel Messi's flight

 

Well, technically its just a minor thropy though. Even a confederation cup isnt considered as major thropy. Still, it would be cool to have a match against European champ . I'm still double happy with England losing the final at Wembley.

 

Last couple of days I’ve been strutting with my stuff with my jersey. Kinda like Travolta in Saturday Night Fever and random strangers congratulating me on the victory.

And the current jersey is sold out pretty much on all the websites. I kinda want to get my hands on the match winners shirt.


As for the Argentina vs Italia match, I knew it was going to be called the Copa Maradona. The Italians do nothing to worry me to be honest. Chiesa is crack, no doubt. But this isn’t the Italian sides where they had loads of talent. They’ve got a great goalie, top 3, their defense is penetrable, the midfield, Jorginho is a brazuca who wants good enough to play for the seleção, and their overall attack isn’t anything to behold.




We won’t face any problems against them.

 

What are the chances of pairing Dybala again with Messi..?

 

very low imo.

 

i wouldn’t even say Don is a top 3 keeper.


Anyone know where I can get the copa america winning shirt the player wore after the match? That shit was classy.

 

Anyway, this got to be the first "tournament" thread in this section that has a happy ending ... (not counting youth level)

 

this thread should be stickied for a long time for the good memories

 

Cholo assist for Bati in 1993 final. Dejavu..

 

We w1ll w1n q4t4r

 

This dribble alone is better than all of Euro 2020.

 

Finally able to rewatch an entire tournament, including the final! Really excited for the Olympics as well. Hope our youth players have been inspired!

 

I cannot find one shirt in the home strip that is a genuine product. I have most of the kits since 2006 so I do feel a bit miffed.

This is quite nice casual wear:

Sorín shaving after the Copa victory. I did the same. I didn’t shave for about month, before the tournament and did after.

What a great player he was.

 

The only sad part is Masche not being part of this.

Losing 3 out of 4 Copa finals on penal... :/

 

I guess we shouldn't have been surprised what he did with the golden gloves trophy in hindsight

 

Holy hell, guys, i called it July 17, 2021

 

July 10th for yourself a truly. Not that I like to pat myself on my back or anything…
