The CONMEBOL Copa América couldn't have asked for a better final matchup for its 2024 edition across the United States. The teams Argentina and Colombia have secured a spot in the final game, which takes place right here in Miami, with Canada and Uruguay duking it out in Charlotte, North Carolina, for third place.

Miami is home to large immigrant communities from both South American countries, so in a way, it feels like South Florida will come out winning no matter who takes home the trophy.

Also, expect plenty of star power both on and off the pitch. Miamians have, of course, adopted Lionel Messi as one of their own, and he's hoping to lead the Argentina team to victory. Still, Colombian midfielder James Rodríguez would like nothing more than to spoil that and give his country its first championship since 2001. With plenty of Latin stars like Feid and Karol G and deep-pocketed billionaires like Alan Faena calling Miami home, expect the stands to be filled with familiar faces.
