Uneven duel of cups –

Cristian Caamaño, a Chilean journalist, said that when he sees the Euro Cup and the Copa América together, he is more disappointed with the CONMEBOL tournament, which he described as “a raid with boxed wine.”

The 2024 Copa America in the United States and the 2024 Euro Cup in Germany are still underway. In the case of the Conmebol tournament, Argentina will play the final against Colombia, while in the Euro, Spain will face England. Another level.

With the Copa America being questioned due to terrible refereeing and an organisation biased in favour of Argentina, the quality of the European tournament is even more evident, even in the capacity. While in Germany there are packed stadiums, in the United States there have been poor entrances.

In the Copa America, 65 goals have been scored in 30 games, averaging 2.16 per match. While in the Eurocup, 114 goals have been scored in 50 games, which leaves 2.19 goals per game.

UEFA reported a total of 2,493,090 fans in stadiums by the quarter-finals of the European Championship; Conmebol revealed that before the semi-finals there were a total of 1.3 million spectators in stadiums.

The difference between the tournaments can also be seen on the court, as shown in the table above: while in the European tournament there are more passes per minute, in the American tournament the game is much slower.
