Copa America Draw Yields Balanced Field, Challenge for Paraguay's Osorio

The groups are set for the 2019 Copa America, which kicks off June 14 in Brazil. The nation gets ready to host the tournament for the fifth time–it last hosted in 1989–and is out to win its first title since 2007. There will be some new wrinkles as well, as after making its introduction in Russia and mainly receiving a positive response, VAR is poised for its debut in the competition.

The Seleçao will open the competition’s 46th edition against Bolivia at Estadio do Morumbi in Sao Paulo, and the remaining 10 nations join in starting the day after, with the action continuing through the end of the group stage on June 24.
