Peru – the shape of the team and its analysis:

“The Incas” played at the World Cup 2018, and they lost only in the intercontinental play-offs before the World Cup in Qatar. Still, everything started out badly in the new cycle. A goalless draw in the battle against Paraguay was followed by 4 defeats, and only the game against modest Venezuela brought a 1-1 draw on the native field.

The coach was replaced after that, and the team managed to improve its performance noticeably under the leadership of Fossati. It tied only the confrontation with the Paraguayans, winning against Nicaragua and the Dominican Republic in March and, being already in the USA in the summer, against El Salvador. As for the Copa, the team started against Chile and ended up with a goalless draw.

Canada – the shape of the team and its analysis:

“The Reds” had modest results last year. They won the Gold Cup only once, however, and were eliminated after a penalty shoot-out with the representatives of the USA in the quarter-finals. The participation at the same level, but against Jamaica in the Nations League, was stopped according to the “away goal” rule in November.

The team started 2024 with a 2-0 result in the battle against Trinidad and Tobago – this secured the right to play in the Copa America. Speaking about the summer, it lost with a 0-4 score to Netherlands, but then held off France, ending the game in a goalless draw in Bordeaux. As for the Copa, the first opponent was Argentina: it achieved a comfortable 2-0 victory in the second half.
