The oldest tournament featuring National teams in the world is around the corner, and Live Soccer TV comes to the rescue to provide details on where you can get a hold of this tournament during the summer.

A long three-year wait is over this summer as the the 2019 Copa América takes place in Brazil. Following the World Cup Qualifiers and the global tournament last year, national teams from South America will be joined by two "exotic" guest nations in the latest edition of the oldest national team tournament in the world.

The competition will have Brazil as its host. The South American giants are well-known for their passionate approach to the beautiful game, which will give them the honor of hosting the tournament for the fifth time. Brazil has not hosted this competition since 1989, and they will surely try to win the tournament in front of their home crowd, just like they did 30 years ago.

This will be the last Copa América to be held every three years. CONMEBOL has been granted the chance by FIFA to hold the tournament every four years, which will synchronize their competition to the UEFA Euro, starting next year. This will make it easier for teams to call their players up, while the footballers enjoy a bit more down time between football seasons.

When will the 2019 Copa América begin?

The 2019 Copa América will begin on June 14 and will conclude on July 7.

Which teams will play in the 2019 Copa América?

Argentina
Bolivia
Brazil
Chile
Colombia
Ecuador
* Japan (Invited)
Paraguay
Peru
* Qatar (Invited)
Uruguay
Venezuela

* Qatar will make their debut in this tournament, following CONMEBOL's invitaiton to the tournament. Japan will be the other guests of honor, following the snub from CONCACAF's sides that refused to send six of their teams to participate in the tournament, given that the Gold Cup will be held around the same dates in which the Copa América will be played.

Who are the defending champions?

Chile will try to win a third title in a row, following their victories in the 2015 and 2016 editions. Those tournaments saw La Roja beat Argentina in two excruciating penalty shootouts. Uruguay has won the most Copa América titles in history, with 15 trophies to their name. Argentina has won the title 14 times, good enough for second place, but they have failed to win this tournament since 1993.
