Canada coach Jesse Marsch said he was proud of what his squad had achieved at the Copa America despite the July 9 semi-final defeat by Argentina after the North American underdogs put higher ranked teams in the shade on their tournament debut.

Former Leeds United manager Mr. Marsch took over just five weeks before the tournament kicked off but Canada adapted quickly to his methods and outperformed fellow CONCACAF sides Mexico and the U.S., who failed to make it out of the group stage.
