Ecuador vs. Jamaica FREE LIVE STREAM (6/26/24): Watch Copa America 2024 soccer match online | Time, TV, channel. Ecuador faces Jamaica in a Copa America 2024 group stage soccer match on Wednesday, June 26, 2024, (6/26/24) at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Coming off a stunner of a defeat to kick off their Copa America tournament, Ecuador and Jamaica will be both seeking their first points when they square off in Group B action at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas on Wednesday.
The Reggae Boyz asserted themselves well enough as underdogs against a strong Mexican side in their opener, falling by a narrow 1-0 scoreline. La Tri, meanwhile, conceded two quick-fire goals in the second half of their opener, going down 2-1 to Venezuela.
After losing their first games of the tournament, who can get back on track?
With Argentina advancing to the knockout stages of Copa America after winning their first two matches, it shows how important early points are, especially as we come to a match between teams who lost their opening matches by just a goal. Ecuador are a dark horse to win the entire tournament but with Enner Valencia being red carded in their opening match, they fell to Venezuela and will now look to get things back on track against a Jamiaca side that hung in there with Mexico before picking up a narrow loss.

When: June 26, 2024
Time: 6 p.m. ET
Where: Allegiant Stadium
TV: FS1
Storylines
Ecuador: Not having Valencia in this match may come as a boon to the squad as it allows them to utilize a more balanced attack while figuring out how to play without their talisman. Young Kendry Páez was bright in the opening match for Ecuador along with Brighton's Jeremy Sarmiento but Kevin Rodríguez may be the player to watch in this one. The 24-year-old forward is a player who can take on defenses alone to streach the pitch and after seeing how Mexico struggled to break through the Reggae Boyz defense.
Jamaica: Still in search of their first Copa America goal ever, there are positives from Jamaica's match against Mexico but the midfield will need to be better to see off Ecuador. This is a match that will be physical and Jamaica can handle that with what they're used to in Concacaf but if Michail Antonio can't occupy multiple defenders, it will be quite a challenge for Bobby Reid and Demarai Gray to get into space.
Prediction
While the Reggae Boyz will find the back of the net, it won't be enough as Páez gets a goal and an assist to push Ecuador over the line and back to the road of qualification. Pick: Ecuador 2, Jamaica 1
Team news & squads
Ecuador team news
Ecuador will be missing their captain, Enner Valencia, for this encounter after VAR ruled his tackle to be worthy of a red card on matchday one.
Jeremy Sarmiento, who plays for newly promoted Premier League side Ipswich Town, scored his second goal for La Tricolor last time out, though he and Kendry Paez both received a yellow card and are at risk of missing their final group fixture with a caution in this match.
Ecuador possible XI: Dominguez; Preciado, Torres, Pacho, Hincapie; Gruezo, M. Caicedo; Minda, Paez, Sarmiento; Rodriguez.
Jamaica team news
Back-up goalie Jahmali Waite started in goal once again for Jamaica in place of injured captain Andre Blake, while Damion Lowe returned to the lineup following a minor knock picked up in World Cup qualifying.
Shamar Nicholson has scored three of their four goals in World Cup qualifying and will start in attack alongside Demarai Gray and Michail Antonio.
Lionel Messi and Argentina will try to match Spain’s feat of three consecutive major titles when the Copa America kicks off Thursday night.
Coming off championships in the 2021 Copa America and the 2022 World Cup, Messi will be four days shy of his 37th birthday when the Albiceleste take the field against Canada at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta.
“I want to enjoy a couple of more matches being a world champion,” Messi said after Argentina beat France on penalty kicks to win the 2022 World Cup final.
He has 10 goals in 10 international appearances since, raising his total to 108 in 182 games for Argentina’s national team. He is either tied for second with Ali Daei or one behind, depending on whether a disputed goal by the Iranian is counted, trailing only Portugal’s Cristiano Ronaldo at 128.
“It is not easy to compete again after winning it all,” Argentina coach Lionel Scaloni said.
Argentina and Uruguay are tied with 15 Copa titles each, followed by Brazil with nine. No other nation has won more than two.
Brazil features an attack headed by Vinícius Júnior and Rodrygo, just off a Champions League title with Real Madrid, and Raphinha. The emerging star is 17-year-old Endrick, who joins Real Madrid this summer.
“If you look at every position in their proposed starting 11, it’s probably one of the world’s best players,” U.S. coach Gregg Berhalter said.
Spain is the only nation to win three consecutive major titles: the European Championship in 2008 and 2012 around the 2010 World Cup.
There will be 16 teams, just as in 2016. The U.S., Mexico, Canada, Costa Rica, Panama and Jamaica join the 10 South American nations after qualifying from North and Central America and the Caribbean.
Ecuador was to host the tournament under the rotation of CONMEBOL, South American soccer’s governing body, but declined. The tournament was then moved to the U.S., which also hosted the special centennial Copa America in 2016 as Chile won on penalty kicks over Argentina at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
Eleven NFL stadiums are being used, including eight of the 11 U.S. venues for the 2026 World Cup, plus three smaller MLS homes. The final will be at Miami Gardens, Florida, on July 14, starting five hours after the European Championship final in Berlin.
CONMEBOL says more than 1 million tickets have been sold for the 32 matches. The 2016 tournament drew just under 1.5 million, and the 2019 tournament in Brazil about 850,000. The 2021 Copa was played mostly without fans because of the coronavirus pandemic.
This will be the biggest test for the U.S. team before the World Cup — the Americans get an automatic berth as co-host along with Mexico and Canada — and most Europe-based players are expected to skip next year’s CONCACAF Gold Cup.
Christian Pulisic, Tyler Adams and Weston McKennie are the core of a team that returns 18 players from the 2022 World Cup roster.
In 2016, CONMEBOL partnered with the U.S. Soccer Federation, which was in charge of most of the logistics. This time, CONMEBOL is co-organizing the tournament with CONCACAF, the governing body of North and Central America and the Caribbean.
Unlike during the World Cup, the organizers have only short-term access to venues. At Hard Rock, a concert is scheduled for July 6, between the last group stage game and the final, and a new grass surface will be installed.
At MetLife Stadium, where a semifinal will be played July 9, staff will look at it as a preview for the World Cup final on July 19, 2026. The stadium has a camera system designed by Arecont Vision and managed by Genetec Security Center that was installed before the 2014 Super Bowl and a new system by Axis Communications is being put in place this summer in the seating bowl with 80 8K, 41-megapixel cameras.
Ecuador collapsed in their opening Copa America contest last weekend at Levi's Stadium, falling 2-1 to Venezuela. Jeremy Sarmiento put Ecuador 1-0 up on the brink of halftime despite his side playing with 10 men due to Enner Valencia being sent off for a rash challenge earlier on in the match. Venezuela would go on to take advantage of having an additional player on the pitch in the second 45 with Jhonder Cadiz and Eduard Bello getting on the scoresheet to propel their nation to three points.
Like Ecuador, Jamaica also suffered defeat in their opening match at the competition against Mexico. The Reggae Boyz had their backs against the wall for most of the match, and Gerardo Arteaga's long-range stunner was enough to for El Tri to collect all three points at NRG Stadium Saturday night.
