Uruguay vs Colombia History
Uruguay are one of the most decorated national teams in the history of this competition, having claimed South American honours no fewer than 15 times. 11 of those triumphs were achieved prior to 1975, when the tournament was rebranded from the South American Championship to the Copa America.
In recent times the Uruguayans have struggled to add to their collection, with Argentina & Brazil ruling the roost for much of the 21st century.
Colombia, meanwhile, only clinched a maiden Copa America title in 2001. Los Cafeteros hosted the tournament and went on to lift the trophy without conceding a single goal in their six matches.
