The Copa America tournament is well underway in the United States, showcasing some of the world's most talented teams and players. With defending champions Argentina led by the legendary Lionel Messi, and other powerhouses like Uruguay and Brazil in the mix, the competition promises to be intense and thrilling. Uruguay, who share the record for most Copa America titles with the reigning world champions, are under the tutelage of Marcelo Bielsa as they begin a new chapter in their storied football history. Brazil, boasting talents like Vinicius Junior, Rodrygo, and Alisson, are always formidable contenders in any tournament they enter. The US Men's National Team (USMNT) is carrying the hopes of a nation as they compete on home soil, aiming to leave a mark and build momentum ahead of hosting the World Cup in 2026. On the other hand, Canada, led by Jesse Marsch, is looking to make strides in their own journey of progress and development in international football. As the group stage concludes, The Athletic provides a comprehensive breakdown of which teams have advanced to the knockout stage and which ones have seen their Copa America dreams cut short. The format of the tournament, with four groups of four teams, ensures that only the top two from each group will progress into the knockout rounds. During the group phase, teams accumulate points based on their results, with three points awarded for a win, one for a draw, and none for a loss. However, as the competition transitions into the knockout stage, every match must have a winner. In the event of a draw after regular time, extra time and potentially penalty kicks will determine the victor. The knockout stage features three decisive rounds: quarter-finals, semi-finals, and the grand final on July 14th. Teams that topped their respective groups will face off against those that finished as runners-up in the quarter-final stage, setting the stage for thrilling matchups and intense battles as the tournament progresses towards its climax. Stay tuned for more updates and exciting football action as the Copa America journey continues, with teams vying for glory and the chance to etch their names into the annals of South American football history.
