Copa America 2024

The Chilean national team was eliminated early in the 2024 Copa América against Canada. The goalless draw, conditioned by the refereeing of Wilmar Roldán, doomed the aspirations of The Red in continental competition.

The controversies of the match took place in the first half hour of the match. An early yellow card on Gabriel Suazo, the elbow of Moses Bombito in Echeverría, and the subsequent expulsion of the former Colo Colo captain after a play that obviously did not even warrant a foul.

The media in South America and around the world have warned about this situation. This is not the case for Canadian sports media, which have limited themselves to announcing their team's ranking and that's it.

And Canada is a country where football isn't even in the background, so the analysis of controversial plays has taken a complete backseat. In fact, they weren't even mentioned.

Canadian media ignores controversial games against La Roja in Copa América

From Canada, they announced their team's ranking for the quarter-finals of the Copa América 2024. However, they ignored several points.

And among the three media analyzed, none mentions Moise Bombito's elbow to Rodrigo Echeverría, even less the controversial expulsion of Gabriel Suazo for a double yellow.

Simply, Sortnet, Radio-Canada And TSNthey focused on making a brief chronicle of the meeting, announcing the ranking and that's it.
