Copa America schedule for 2024

On June 20, 2024, the 2024 Copa America will begin, with the first group stage match taking place in Atlanta, Georgia. The top two teams from each group will advance to the knockout stage, while the bottom two teams will be eliminated, with the group stage set to end on July 2.

As we advance to the knockout phase, the quarterfinals take place on July 4–6. In the meantime, the semifinals are scheduled for July 9–10. Notably, the championship match is scheduled for July 14, and the third-place match is scheduled for July 13.

We now know the route to the Copa America final. Everyone will try their hardest to prevent Argentina from winning the tournament twice when it takes place in 14 American cities between June 20 and July 14. Six Concacaf countries have been invited, making up the ten CONMEBOL nations for the first time since 2016. This will be an extremely competitive tournament. The United States and Uruguay were drawn together, so it looks like they will face off in the knockout stages to see who can get past Brazil. However, teams cannot get ahead of themselves because nothing in a knockout tournament can be taken for granted.

Since these countries had to qualify through the Nations League, Concacaf adds more balance to the mix, making none of the groups especially easy. Let’s examine the tournament schedule and all of the groups:
