After a chaotic last few months, CONMEBOL has finally decided to host the Copa America in Brazil. The tournament was meant to be held in Colombia and Argentina in 2020. However, due to the coronavirus pandemic, it was postponed. In 2021, Colombia was removed as co-host of the tournament after protests against the country's president. Later, Argentina was removed as host because of Covid-19 related issues. The South American confederation finally decided to give the hosting rights to Brazil, just two weeks before the tournament was scheduled to begin. It is scheduled to begin on 13th June and end on 10th July 2021.

Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay, and Chile are the favourites of the tournament. Argentina, which has lost too many finals in the last few years, will be hoping to do it this time. Despite having the superstar Lionel Messi, Argentina lost the 2014 World Cup. Then it lost in the Copa America final in 2015, 2016, and finished third in the 2019 edition. However, Argentina is the second most successful team in the tournament with 14 titles, just one behind Uruguay’s 15. Argentina’s biggest rival Brazil has 9 titles. Chile have two titles, both won after defeating Argentina in the finals of 2015 and 2016 edition.
