Cuartos de final de la Copa América, Jun 28
June 28, 2019 - Venezuela y Argentina se enfrentan en el segundo partido de cuartos de final de la Copa Améria 2019, que se juega en el Estadio de Maracaná en Río de Janeiro.
Organized by the ruling body of South American soccer, CONMEBOL, the 2019 tournament sees the Copa América return to Brazil after 30 years. Rio de Janeiro’s famous Maracana stadium will host the final on July 7.
Since 1993, the tournament has generally featured 12 teams – all 10 CONMEBOL teams plus two teams from other confederations. This year guest nations Japan and Qatar joined Brazil, Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Paraguay, Peru, Uruguay, and Venezuela in the South American showpiece.
Uruguay, Argentina or Brazil have claimed all but eight trophies over the tournament’s history, but Chile have won the last two editions and could become the first nation to win three successive titles since Argentina managed that feat in 1947.
