I live in Miami, and the saddest thing to me is that no Colombian person, or Argentine person in my community stepped up and voiced an apology or regret for destroying property in my city, that place is my Dolphins home stadium, and a stadium we are proud of and they break in through vents. I am not happy..

[IvanRivera-hn]

I attended the Colombia vs Brasil game on July 2nd at Levi’s stadium. The same thing happened but at a smaller scale. Some colombian fans broke the fences and stormed into the stadium.

I arrived 2 hours in advance and almost missed the start of the game. It was a nightmare. At one point after 45 minutes under the sun with my wife and children, everybody shoulder to shoulder, the environment started to get tense and dangerous. We decided to move to the back and abandon the “line”.

Never saw anything reported about that.

To all the Colombians saying it was Uruguay. Who are they gonna blame now.

[cristianrojas]

Let's be honest they were mostly Colombians, all I saw were yellow shirts . Colombias soccer federation should be fined as they were at the center of huge problem at 2 games in a row.

[dhatroit]

they need to get rid of artificial surfaces for fields!!!

[seanmac]

finally. a panel that spits FACTS. im so tired of echoing to people exactly what ya’ll said.

[TrainerAQ]

The thing is people don't look at the facts and details. They associate Copa America with USA whether or not USA actually had anything to do with it. And they associate USA with being the host to the next World Cup

[R.A.C.A]

The problem is that United States is not ready for the big events like copa America

[actthree]

Read the chart showing past champions. Why does the frequency of this tournament vary so much?

[bladablitz]

I agree with Nico 85% of the time. Except for the following point: the security forces, including the police, were not well instructed, there were too few of them and they didn't know how to handle the situation. To claim that you don't know how some nations - i.e. their fans - behave and that this was all unforeseeable is (sorry) very naive. Here in Europe, the bigger issue is actually how it can happen that the law enforcement, security and the guidance system has failed so badly.

[pelipequi]

1100 security officers for the Clasico are always in the Centenario stadium in Montevideo, these guys had half of that with twice the attendance. Utter failure! Velverde's wife and baby were able to get down as Darwin Nunez was pushing back on fans. I still don't think essentializing nationalities when the majority of the spectators were Colombians is fair. Also national jerseys don't correlate with the country.

[anlerden]

I'm not so happy because My Team USA wouldn't have won the Copa America.

[lloyd_r]

Wonder if there will be a xenophobic Netflix documentary like there was for the Wembley incident?

No I wouldn't think so, wrong colour...

[Ngooo]

I disagree w almost nothing that was said, but …”Choas”? Really?

[artrobles]

Isn’t it the FISH rots from the head? Point taken.

[adrianalaleona]

He also missed the fields, they are so bad! And they changed the grass 2 days before

[Jrgfb]

Different type of people in 2016 to 2024. It’s not just COMEBOL the US has to take a share of blame too. It’s too easy and lazy to just blame the one confederation

[cholo]

He is mad at media being charged for food hahahah…
“from what i heard..” so this jean jacket boy can’t even confirm with facts an names what he is implying LOL
Then he gets asked: why in 2016 these issues didn’t happened and his answer is “well maybe this or maybe that…i dont know how ton answer that”
Then shut the *** off hahaha

[hennyHBK]

France might as well be an African team with all them brothers 😂

[RaySmith]

From the racist argentinian fans to canadian players, to the fight club in stands, to freeloaders.
