URU vs BOL Match Preview
Uruguay started the tournament with a 3-1 win against Panama. On the other hand, Bolivia suffered a 2-0 defeat against the hosts United States in their first match of the competition.
After Maximiliano Araújo (16') scored an early goal, Uruguay wasted some chances. Only the late goals from Darwin Núñez (85') and Matías Viña (90'+1') secured the game for the joint-most Copa America champions. Only seven were on target out of their 20 shots in that match. At the end of the game, Uruguay conceded the only goal from Panama.
Meanwhile, Bolivia suffered a 2-0 defeat against the hosts USA, due to an early goal from Christian Pulisic (3’) and Folarin Balogun’s 44th-minute goal. It was Bolivia’s 13th straight loss in the Copa America, having won only once in the last 31 Copa America fixtures.
Now, Bolivia can’t afford another defeat in this group, while Uruguay are looking for another win to move closer to their knockout stage qualification.
