Copa America 2016 Fixtures in Indian Timings & Locations : Download PDF of America Centenario 2016 Schedule with venue details
While many people are waiting for the Euros to kick off in France, another equally enthralling tournament involving the best teams in South America and North America will kick off in June. This time, there is no need for football fans to fret in the off season as they can catch their favorite superstars playing in the Copa America or Euros.
The competition is a celebration of the centenary of CONMEBOL and the Copa America, and is to be the first Copa América hosted outside of South America
The tournament, 100 years in the making, which will be the 45th edition of Copa América since its inception in 1916, will be held as a special edition between the usual four-year cycle, and will feature an expanded field of 16 teams (an increase from the usual 12), with all ten teams from CONMEBOL and six teams from CONCACAF.
The tournament is held for purely ceremonial purposes and the winners will not be awarded a place in the Confederations Cup as Chile already have it thanks to their Copa America triumph over Argentina in the finals of the 2015 Copa America.
However, this tournament will not be taken likely as the world’s biggest stars such as Luis Suarez, Lionel Messi and Arturo Vidal are expected to take part. This could prove to be a good opportunity for Lionel Messi to win a trophy with his national team.
An international trophy is the only thing missing in the trophy cabinet of the Argentine maestro and he will be looking to correct that fault as soon as possible. Messi’s Barcelona team-mate, Neymar might miss the Copa America as he is also keen to take part in the Olympics which will be held in his home country Brazil.
The tournament will also prove to be important for many players as some of the world’s biggest clubs will be keeping an eye out for talented footballers and a good performance in the Copa America can go a long way in securing a move to the club of their dreams.
The competition begins on the 4th of June as hosts USA take on Colombia in the first Group A fixture.
