Copa America 2024: Results, highlights as Canada defeats Venezuela on penalties

A 1-1 draw through regulation Friday night in Arlington, Texas pushed the Copa America quarterfinal matchup between Venezuela and Canada to penalty kicks.

The teams were even at 3-3 after five attempts each. Following a miss from Venezuela's Wilker Ángel, Ismaël Koné stepped into the box for Canada with a chance to win the game.

He hesitated slightly before burying the ball in the left corner of the net to advance Canada to the semifinals of the team's first Copa America.

Friday's quarterfinal match saw an early goal by Canada's Jacob Shaffelburg in the 13th minute. The Copa America debutant kept that lead through halftime and into the second half as Venezuela turned up the energy and pressure.

Venezuela's vice captain Salomón Rondón notched the equalizer in the 65th minute and that score held through the end of stoppage time. Koné's shot secured Canada's second win in the tournament to move them on to another matchup with tournament favorite Argentina.

Venezuela vs. Canada predictions

Sports Mole: Venzuela 1, Canada 1 (Venezuela advances on penalties)

Joel Lefevre writes: "The Canadians have been a resilient group, but in a match that could be about holding your nerve, we trust the experience of players like Rondon to carry the Venezuelans through."

Live Score: Venzuela wins

Aidan Perkins says: "Canada have some well-known players, including Davies and David, while Venezuela are led by experienced former West Brom and Everton forward Rondon, who has scored 41 goals for his country. It looks set to be tight but Venezuela can maintain their winning form and book themselves a place in the semis."

Sportskeeda: Venzuela 1, Canada 0

Soyoye Jedidiah writes: "Venezuela have been one of the standout sides in the Copa America so far and will head into the weekend clash with a three-game winning streak under their belt... Canada, meanwhile, have won just two of their last seven games across all competitions. They have struggled in front of goal of late and could exit the competition on Friday."
