Venezuela kept their perfect record intact in Copa America 2024 as they cruised to a 3-0 victory against Jamaica to send the Caribbean team home without any points. Venezuela won all their three games and thus topped Group B to avoid clashing with World Champions and defending Copa America champions Argentina in the quarter-final.
