On the 28th (Korean time), many foreign media outlets, including the Associated Press, said, “Copa America will be held in the United States. A total of 16 countries will participate.”
The United States is set to host the 2026 World Cup in North and Central America. It seems that they are trying to gain experience in hosting the 메이저놀이터 tournament through Copa America ahead of the World Cup. Due to this, the Copa America is a tournament held under the supervision of the South American Football Federation, but it will be held in the United States in association with the North and Central American Football Association.
Of the 16 countries, 10 are from South America and 6 are from North and Central America. At the same time, the women’s soccer Copa America is also planned to be held as a large-scale competition.
This Copa America is also focused on Messi. Messi scored 7 goals and 3 assists in 7 matches at the World Cup in Qatar and succeeded in winning the World Cup he had so longed for. He won the Golden Ball (Best Player) and became the first player in World Cup history to be named the winner twice (2014 and 2022).
The 35-year-old predicted the World Cup in Qatar would be his last. After he won the World Cup, he was beautifully expected to retire from the national team, but no announcement of his retirement has yet been made. There are also observations that he can continue his national team life.
As a result, attention is focused on whether or not Messi will play in the Copa America. Even in the Copa America held in 2021, there is a memory that Argentina ended up at the top after Messi’s big success.
