Copa America Centenario is the first Copa America tournament hosted outside of South America. The Copa America tournament is an international football competition that has been determining the continental champion of South America since 1916.
The continent features some of the biggest soccer powers in the world, including Brazil, Argentina, Chile and Uruguay.
Copa America Centenario is the first rendition involving North American teams, being held under an agreement between CONMEBOL (the South American football confederation) and CONCACAF (the football confederation for North and Central America and the Caribbean).
