The Copa America schedule has been announced. The best Latin American football competition will take place in the United States next year. Messi and Neymar will once again take the field. The Copa America has returned to America, as announced by CONMEBOL. From June 20 to July 14, Latin America's premier football tournament will be held in Biden's country. The wind will blow in favor of American football development. After 2016, the Copa America will be played on American soil again. In 2026, Mexico, Canada, and the United States will host the World Cup. Ten countries from CONMEBOL will participate in the Copa, as well as the top six countries from CONCACAF. In addition, the six CONCACAF nations will have the opportunity to qualify for the Copa through the CONCACAF Nations League 2023-24.

In 2021, the Copa America was last held. The host country was Brazil. Argentina emerged victorious, defeating Neymar's home team. Messi and Kang won the Copa after 28 years. Uruguay holds the record for the most championships in the Copa, having won it 15 times, along with their iconic blue and white jerseys. Last year, there were talks of Colombia and Argentina hosting the Copa, but CONMEBOL withdrew the tournament from politically unstable Colombia. Later, due to the impact of COVID-19, the Copa was also withdrawn from Messi's country. CONMEBOL President Alejandro Dominguez said about the 2022 Copa, "Our unity is based not only on historical and emotional ties but also on the same enthusiasm for football. We hope to expand and promote multiple projects and initiatives together in this way. We will advance our passion in a more meaningful way." Those who love Latin American artistic football are eagerly awaiting the Brazil-Argentina match. Besides the World Cup, this Copa offers that opportunity as well.
