04:00 AM: Hello everyone and welcome to Khel Now’s LIVE COVERAGE of the Copa America Group A match between Argentina vs Canada. The kick-off is just a few hours away! Please wait for 30 seconds for the Live blog to load.

Defending champions and the most successful nation in Copa America, Argentina will kick off the 48th edition of America’s premier international football tournament when they face Canada. Riding high on recent triumphs, with Lionel Scaloni’s tactical acumen and Lionel Messi’s leadership, La Albiceleste will look to continue their champions run.

Canada on the other hand, riding on young captain Alphonso Davies’ back will look to shock the world champions as they set foot for the first time on the main stage of Copa America. Newly appointed Jesse Marsch has a golden chance in front of him to shock the formidable opponents and prove his genius.

Debutants Canada will face their toughest challenge in the past few years when they face an in-form world champions Argentina but knowing how they recently forced mighty France for a draw, slim chances of a shock for Argentina are not negligible.

Players to Watch:

Lionel Messi (Argentina)

Lionel Messi continues to be in hot form while serving his nation. He has been the biggest impact player for Argentina in over a decade. His magical skills and unbelievable stats are always the biggest threats for opponents.

The legend continues to score goals and create chances for his team from the right wing. His fans from all over the world will expect him to score not just one but many goals in this campaign opener.

The veteran left Europe last year to join MLS side Inter Miami. He hails an exciting stat of 12 goals and nine assists in just 12 MLS games for his new club this season.

Alphonso Davies (Canada)

The 2001-born highly talented player will shoulder huge responsibilities when his nation faces the world champions in the debut game itself. The pacy left-back needs to be at his best to stop the lethal attack line of Argentina consisting of legends like Messi and Angel Di Maria along with young beasts like Lautaro Martinez, Julian Alvarez and Alejandro Garnacho.

Davies hails the ability to move front and cater the forward line with perfect passes along with shouldering his defensive duties. Since his debut in 2017, Davies has played in 47 games for Canada, scoring 15 goals and providing 18 assists, which for a defender looks unreal.
