Ex-Chile goalkeeper Johnny Herrera makes bold prediction for Messi's Copa America campaign

The 2024 Copa America campaign kicks off in the United States today. The reigning champions, Argentina, led by Lionel Messi, will start their title defence with a clash against Canada.

The Albiceleste are the tournament favourites, according to most experts. But not for Johnny Herrera.

The two-time Copa America winner with Chile believes that Brazil will win the tournament, with Uruguay finishing second.

More than that, according to TNT Sports, the ex-Chilean goalkeeper believes that Messi ill be the “main disappointment” of the tournament.

Herrera didn’t elaborate on why he thinks this, but it won’t be long before we find out if his bold prediction holds water.
