Like many major sporting tournaments, the Copa America is an event that you’ll need to pay to watch in Australia (sigh). Unless you’re catching games live in the wee hours at a sports bar or your mate’s place, you’ll need to sign up for an Optus Sport membership to watch this one.

Certain Optus customers can access a subscription for only $6.99 per month, but others will need to fork out $24.99 per month or $199 for an annual plan.

Where is the event being held?

The 2024 Men’s Copa America is being hosted by the United States, with the first leg of the tournament beginning in Atlanta.

Who won the last tournament?

Argentina is the most recent winner of the Copa America men’s tournament (like the World Cup). They defeated Brazil in the 2021 final, so Brazil is likely looking to prove themselves this time around.

Looking at the history of the tournament, Uruguay and Argentina have won the most titles overall.
