Canada falls to Uruguay in third-place match at Copa America

Canada will leave the 2024 Copa America with a fourth-place finish to its name.

The Canadians fell to Uruguay in penalties on Saturday in the Copa America third-place match on Saturday.

After falling down 1-0 just eight minutes into the game, Canada responded in the 22nd minute thanks to a stunning scissor-kick goal from Ismael Kone.

Jonathan David would put the Canadians up 2-1 in the 80th minute when he buried a rebound past the Uruguayan keeper.

But then Uruguay’s Luis Suarez would tie the game with an stoppage-time goal to send the game to penalties.

The Canadians started a young, new-look lineup, but then brought in the likes of Alphonso Davies and David in the second half.
