Argentina vs Uruguay Copa America 2024 Tickets

La Albiceleste enjoys a huge amount of support from around the world, and that’s down to a number of factors, chief among them being their incredible level of success across multiple tournaments.

This makes securing Argentina vs Uruguay Copa America tickets a tough task unless, of course, you do so via SeatPick. This clash of South American giants is sure to be one of the biggest at the upcoming tournament and is a game that sees two Copa America greats fight it out for supremacy.

Argentina hosted the first Copa America in 1916 and it was Uruguay who triumphed in that tournament. Back then, only four nations took part in what was a fairly modest affair, but by 1947, that number had been doubled to eight, and by 1975, the number of participants had risen to ten.

CONMEBOL, the body that oversees South American football, then took the decision to further expand the format in 1993, inviting teams from CONCACAF, which covers the North and Central America region.

Indeed they have even brought in national teams from further afield, such as Qatar and Japan, as part of efforts to continually evolve the tournament, and it would be fair to say that such efforts have borne fruit.

Millions of fans look to secure tickets for the event and will flock to the hosting nation, keen to double up a trip to see great football with a holiday full of vibrancy and colour.

Argentina vs Uruguay Copa America Tournament Record

At the time of writing, Argentina and Uruguay are tied for the most Copa America titles, with both nations having secured a massive 15 wins in the tournament.

Argentina’s maiden success came in 1921, and they went on to win 12 titles in a glorious spell of dominance across the 1920s, 1930s, and 1950s. Then things went a little quiet.

Between 1959 and 1991, they failed to win a single Copa America title, which is even harder to fathom given that sides fronted by the likes of Daniel Passarella, Mario Kempes, and the great Diego Maradona were happily winning two FIFA World Cup crowns over that period.

Their 1991 success, and the 1993 win that followed it, were achieved in no small part due to the amazing exploits of Serie A hot-shot Gabriel Batistuta.

Incredibly, another lengthy drought followed this time for 28 years, much of which was when a certain talent by the name of Lionel Messi was performing at the peak of his powers. The FC Barcelona man tasted three Copa America final defeats during this spell, a run that happily ended in 2021 when Argentina defeated Brazil thanks to a solitary goal from Angel Di Maria in the Copa America Final. Uruguay were near unstoppable as a footballing force when the Copa America first got underway.

La Celeste won five titles from their first eight involvements, and by the time the tournament had evolved into a ten-team competition in 1975, Uruguay had won the competition eleven times.

As of now, their most recent success was back in 2011, which came under the reign of Oscar Tabarez and saw a well-balanced side defeat all before them thanks to a solid back-line containing keeper Fernando Muslera and centre-back Diego Godin and fronted by Liverpool forward Luis Suarez and Atletico Madrid ace Diego Forlan.

Having beaten Argentina and Peru in the Quarter-Final and Semi-Final, respectively, Uruguay then eased past Paraguay to win 3-0 in Buenos Aires to collect their 15th title.

Argentina vs Uruguay Head-to-Head

Argentina and Uruguay have crossed each other's paths on countless occasions in the Copa America and often in key matches.

In 1987 the two teams played in the Semi-Finals of the Copa America in Buenos Aires, with Antonio Alzamendi netting the winner to give Uruguay a big win over their hosts.

In 2011 in their Quarter-Final clash, the two sides drew 1-1 before Uruguay beat Argentina on their own patch via penalties and went on to win the Copa America that year.
