The Copa America 2021 will be the 47th edition of the Copa America , the international men’s football championship organized by South America’s football ruling body CONMEBOL. The tournament will take place in Colombia and Argentina from 11 June to 10 July 2021. This will mark the first time it will be hosted by more than one country since 1983, when it was played in a home–away basis, and the first time in two countries.
In March 2017, CONMEBOL reportedly proposed that the Copa América take place in 2020 as part of a calendar change. Following the 2019 edition in Brazil, the quadrennial tournament would move from odd to even years starting in 2020, with the following edition taking place in Ecuador in 2024. This would move the tournament in line with the UEFA European Championship, which is also held in even years with a 2020 edition taking place. Reports suggested that the United States may host the tournament, having previously held the one-off Copa América Centenario in 2016, which celebrated the centenary of CONMEBOL and the Copa América. On 18 September 2018, plans for a calendar change were confirmed by CONMEBOL president Alejandro Domínguez after submitting an official request to FIFA.
In June 2019, the CONMEBOL Council officially approved the participation of Australia and Qatar as the two invited teams, who were the previous two winners of the AFC Asian Cup. Australia would be making their debut appearance in the Copa América, while Qatar would be making their second appearance, having participated in the previous edition. copa america 2021 group.
The full original schedule and kick-off times for the tournament were announced on 3 December 2019 and 4 March 2020 respectively. the tournament was postponed until 2021 and the new schedule with several modifications was announced on 13 August 2020
