The Spain team meets the England team, the Argentina team meets the Colombia team, the four names alone are enough to create a certain amount of excitement and excitement. But within its meaning, there are still more things worth waiting for. EURO 2024 has been a more convincing introduction for the young elements of the Spanish Team such as Lamine Yamal and Nico Williams. On the England side , Kobbie Mainoo was trusted later, but still enough for the Manchester United midfielder to be affirmed as "the future of English football".
Between them, one side will certainly end in sublimation, the other side will end in sadness with their teammates. But then, win or lose, everyone will have to move on and they will face each other many more times in the future, from club level to team level...
No one wants a sad goodbye, and that goes for Argentina's Lionel Messi and Colombia's James Rodriguez. Most likely, this will be Messi's last Copa America, when he is 37 years old, so M10 individuals and fans both want the farewell to be complete with the final victory.
But Colombian James and the 32-year-old midfielder's fans are equally hungry for victory at Hard Rock Stadium in Florida. A rare opportunity for James to have glory with the national team, as this is only the third time Colombia has reached the final of the 108-year-old tournament.
If a victory with Messi is a consolidation of his brilliant career, a victory could be a point of revival for James, a flamboyant midfielder whose career at the club has been quite difficult in the past 10 years. Most likely, another door from Europe will open with the midfielder playing for Sao Paulo in Brazil...
It will not be possible to compare and question that Messi has more than enough titles and awards to "cede" James, because this is a match for national honor, for the reputation of the stars themselves. It's the same for everyone, whether it's the Copa America or EURO finals. So in the end, fans just need to enjoy and share...
