FOR the second time in its history, the Copa America is being played outside South America, and for the second time, that guest host country is the United States.
The US had previously been gifted the Copa America Centenario in 2016 — a tournament that marked 100 years since the first edition held in Uruguay in 1916.
It’s now 108 years since that first tournament was played, making the Copa America the oldest and longest-running of the major international football tournaments that are still being played.
