On Wednesday morning, Argentina and Canada will compete in the Copa America semi-finals.

Strength Analysis
Argentina is the defending champion of the Copa America and the winner of the 2022 World Cup. They have united players and have established a style of play with 
Liano Messi as the tactical core. In the group stage of this Copa America, Argentina is the only team among the 16 teams that has not conceded a goal. They have won all three games and reached the semi-finals. The match with Ecuador also showed that even if Argentina is forced to play a penalty shootout, they still have the confidence to laugh to the end. As for Canada, although they beat the two-time champion Chile in the group stage, they are not favored by the outside world because of their negative goal difference. In the semi-finals, they were lucky to eliminate Venezuela through a penalty shootout, but they were not confident enough to advance to the semi-finals. Whether it is Cillessen Lallien or Jonathan David , they are not good enough compared with Argentina's luxurious team. Canada can only accept the fate of stopping in the semi-finals.

with Mastier, Scaloni has little coaching experience and mainly focuses on the Argentine national team. However, in terms of results and honors, Scaloni obviously crushes Mastier. Scaloni has important honors such as the Copa America and the World Cup, and his players are outstanding and hardworking. Scaloni is expected to lead Argentina to achieve more success. Before becoming the head coach of Canada, Mastier coached several European clubs and led Salzburg to win the Austrian Bundesliga. He only became the head coach of Canada in mid-May this year. Although he led the team all the way out of the group stage and into the knockout stage, the team's mediocre performance is really unconvincing.

Key player
Nadal Martinez played 4 times in this Copa America. Although he played as a substitute in 2 games, he achieved extremely impressive data with limited playing time. He scored 4 goals and is a hot favorite for the Golden Boot. With the help of pass masters such as Liliano Messi behind him, Nadal Martinez has no shortage of shooting opportunities. Jonathan David plays as a shadow striker and one of his responsibilities is to create opportunities for his teammates. He has scored 1 goal in this tournament but has yet to record an assist.
