The 2024 Copa América final was an international soccer match to determine the winners of the 2024 Copa América. The match was the 48th final of the Copa América, a quadrennial tournament contested by the men's national teams of the member associations of CONMEBOL. The edition also featured teams from CONCACAF and was hosted in the United States. The match was played at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida, on July 14, 2024.[3]

The match was delayed by over an hour and twenty minutes, due to a series of incidents which occurred near the stadium.[4][5]

The match was contested between defending champions Argentina, in their record-extending 30th final appearance, and Colombia, in only their third final. Of the 29 previous finals, Argentina won a joint-record 15 titles, while Colombia won their most recent final in 2001. This was Argentina's third major tournament final in row, after the 2021 Copa América and 2022 FIFA World Cup finals, a feat only achieved five times before, by West Germany (1972, 1974, 1976), Brazil (1994, 1995, 1997, 1998, 1999), Spain (2008, 2010, 2012), Argentina themselves earlier on (2014, 2015, 2016) and Mexico (at the CONCACAF Gold Cup). Argentina defeated Colombia 1–0 after extra time to win a record-breaking 16th Copa América.[6]

Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida, near the city of Miami, hosted the final. It was confirmed as the host on November 20, 2023.[7] The United States had been announced as host in January 2023; the country had previously hosted the Copa América Centenario in 2016 with the final played at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, near New York City, which would also host the 2026 FIFA World Cup final.[8][9]

Hard Rock Stadium is primarily the home of the Miami Dolphins of the National Football League and has a grass surface and 65,000 seats.[10] It opened in 1987 and underwent major renovations from 2015 to 2017 that added a roof and other features.[11] The stadium is also a 2026 FIFA World Cup host venue.[10]

Pre-match overcrowding

The stadium was expected to be sold-out with a crowd of over 65,000 attendees.[16] At around 5:40pm ET, hours before the scheduled match kick-off of 8:00pm ET, dozens of Colombia fans jumped over security railings and ran past police officers into the Hard Rock Stadium.[17][18][19] Several of the incidents occurred at the southwest gate dedicated to journalists, VIPs, and players' families.[18][19] In response, police officers locked the entrance gates.[17] At around 8:10pm local time, stadium security re-opened the gates to avoid a crowd crush and to slowly allow ticket-holders into the stadium.[17][16] Thousands of fans were prevented from entering the stadium due to the incidents.[18]

Hard Rock Stadium issued a statement that "In anticipation of tonight's Copa America Final, thousands of fans without tickets attempted to forcibly enter the stadium, putting other fans, security and law enforcement officers at extreme risk."[17][18] The start of the final match was delayed by 82 minutes until 9:22pm ET.[17][18] An estimated 7,000 people gained entry without tickets.[16] Stadium security continued to check tickets of those inside the stadium and clear crowded aisles while the match was underway.[16]

550 officers from the Miami-Dade Police Department were assigned to the match.[17] Multiple arrests were made for trespassing and battery on a police officer.[18] The Miami-Dade Fire Rescue Department set up an emergency station inside the for fans suffering from heat exhaustion in the 88 °F (31 °C) heat.[18]
