Bronze medal match

In the penultimate game of the tournament two old rivals are meeting again. In the opener the hosts missed the opportunity to write the first three points in the group against the South Americans, and now, three weeks later they are also meeting in an important game for the third place play off. USA will have the opportunity to avenge the loss to Colombia, who after Chile wants to retaliate and grab that bronze medal.
Even if they are playing at home, USA are having hard time to accommodate themselves and the team is playing with a lot of stress. Wanting to release that stress at the last game they have to, at least, play better than before. But their South American rivals look very skilled and better prepared coming to this tournament. Colombia's (unlucky) loss in the semifinal marathon match against Chile just made them more determined and they should return home with a medal.
