  • Seeds: The seeds are drawn and assigned to each group.
  • Remaining Teams: The remaining teams are drawn from their respective pots. Each team is placed in a different group to ensure competitive balance.

5. Rules and Restrictions

The drawing takes place at a public event, usually live-streamed, to ensure transparency. Representatives of the participating teams and CONMEBOL officials are usually present.

Regulations in the America Cup

The America Cup follows specific regulations established by CONMEBOL to ensure a fair and competitive tournament. Below are some of the key aspects of this regulation:

1. Tournament Format

The America Cup is usually played with 10 CONMEBOL teams, divided into groups for the initial phase. Sometimes, teams from other confederations are invited to complete the field of participants. Teams are divided into groups, and the best teams advance to the knockout stages.

2. Group stage

Teams are divided into groups and play in a round-robin format. The best teams in each group, usually the top two, advance to the quarterfinals along with the best third-place teams.

3. Elimination Phases

Starting in the quarterfinals, the teams play direct elimination matches. In the event of a tie, extra time is taken and, if necessary, a penalty shootout to determine the winner.

4. Rules of the game

Standard FIFA rules apply, including the duration of matches, the number of substitutions allowed, and disciplinary sanctions. During the tournament, the VAR (Video Assistant Referee) is used to assist in making important decisions.

5. Player Eligibility

Only players officially registered by their respective federations can participate. Each team submits a final list of players before the start of the tournament, with a limited number of changes allowed in case of injuries.

6. Tie Break Criteria

In the group stage, if two or more teams have the same number of points, various tie-breaking criteria are used, such as goal difference, the number of goals scored and the result of head-to-head matches.

7. Fair Play

The conduct of teams and players is closely monitored. Yellow and red cards can affect the classification and are accumulated throughout the tournament.

These regulations guarantee that the Copa América is played in an orderly, competitive and fair manner, promoting sportsmanship and football excellence.
