Argentina and Brazil renew their historic rivalry in tonight’s 2021 Copa America Final.
Given that the Euro 2020 showpiece between England and Italy follows this weekend, it is slightly going under the radar somewhat on these shores that two of the world’s great footballing powerhouses are clashing once again in a high-profile contest at the iconic Maracana Stadium in Rio de Janeiro.
After knockout wins over Ecuador and Colombia, Lionel Messi will once again attempt to win his first major tournament with Argentina... and he’s quickly running out of chances.
The Albiceleste - 14-time champions of South America - are without a top-level triumph now since 1993, while hosts Brazil, after squeezing past Chile and Peru thanks to Lyon’s Lucas Paqueta, are aiming for a second straight continental title on home soil.
