The USMNT is prepping for Copa America, which begins later this month. U.S. faces Brazil in its last warmup before a Copa America group stage schedule that includes matches vs. Bolivia, Panama and Uruguay.
The U.S. is coming off a tuneup 5-1 loss to Colombia Saturday (in Landover, Md.) to gauge where they are. The Americans allowed just 6 shots on target, but 5 of those ended up in the back of the net. The U.S. is 2-0-2 (W-D-L) through 4 matches in 2024. AC Milan F Christian Pulisic leads the squad with 28 goals in 67 caps, according to Wikipedia.
Brazil, on the other hand, has the 2nd-best odds to win Copa America at +220, only behind the F Lionel Messi-led Argentina (+175). Brazil beat Mexico 3-2 Saturday in a friendly at College Station, Texas. Brazil only took 5 shots, but netted 3. Brazil is 2-1-0 through 3 matches in 2024, having yet to lose. It will face Costa Rica, Paraguay and Columbia — arguably the most difficult group — in the Copa America group stage. Brazil will be led offensively in this match by F Vinicius Junior, who was the most lethal weapon for the UEFA Champions League-winning Real Madrid.
