Uruguay and Colombia are set to clash in a thrilling Copa America 2024 semi-final at the Bank of America Stadium in North Carolina on Wednesday. Marcelo Bielsa’s Uruguay secured their spot in the semi-finals by narrowly defeating Brazil in a tense penalty shootout, while Colombia dominated Panama with an impressive 5-0 victory in their quarter-final match. The Uruguay vs Colombia Live Streaming will not be available in India.

Uruguay vs Colombia Preview

Uruguay, known for their formidable defense, managed to keep Brazil scoreless for 120 minutes despite facing significant challenges. They endured the loss of Ronald Araujo to a first-half injury and Nahitan Nandez’s second-half red card. Despite these setbacks, Bielsa’s men held on to force a penalty shootout, where Sergio Rochet saved Eder Militao’s shot, and Juventus newcomer Douglas Luiz missed his attempt.

On the other hand, Colombia cruised past Panama with a commanding performance led by captain James Rodríguez, who scored once and provided two assists. This victory marks Colombia’s biggest win in Copa America history and a testament to their attacking prowess.

Uruguay vs Colombia Team News

Uruguay will face the semi-final without Nandez, who is suspended, and Araujo, who is out for the remainder of the tournament due to a leg injury. This absence will likely see Atletico Madrid’s José Giménez step in, and Flamengo’s Guillermo Varela is expected to replace Nandez.

In contrast, Colombia will be boosted by the return of Jefferson Lerma. Head coach Nestor Lorenzo has little reason to make significant changes to his lineup following their dominant display against Panama, where Rodríguez was instrumental, contributing to three first-half goals. Rodríguez has now become the second player on record to assist five goals in a single Copa America campaign since 2011.

Uruguay vs Colombia Predicted XI

Uruguay Predicted XI:

Rochet; Varela, Gimenez, Olivera, Vina; Valverde, Ugarte; Pellistri, De la Cruz, Araujo; Nunez

Colombia Predicted XI:

Vargas; Munoz, Sanchez, Cuesta, Mojica; Rios, Lerma; J. Arias, Rodriguez, Diaz; Cordob
