The 2015 Copa Amrica was the 44th edition of the Copa Amrica, the main international

football tournament for national teams in South America, and took place in Chile between 11
June and 4 July 2015.[1] The competition was organized by CONMEBOL, South America's
football governing body.
Twelve teams competed, the ten members of CONMEBOL and two guests from
CONCACAF Mexico and Jamaica, the latter of which competed in the Copa Amrica for
the first time. Uruguay were the defending champions, but were eliminated by the hosts in the
quarterfinals. Chile won their first title by defeating Argentina in the final on a penalty
shootout after a goalless draw. As winners, they qualified for the 2017 FIFA Confederations
Cup in Russia.
