The Cup is the most prestigious tournament in South America and has been held since 1916, once every four years. Initially only Southwood to participate, and then gradually increase the North America and the Caribbean teams, has now become one of the highest level of soccer tournaments in the Americas. So far, it has been held 47 times, and jointly won 34 championships.
The America's Cup is four times in five years due to the Copa America Centenario. In strict calculations, the Copa America is actually organized four times in six years from 2015-2021. The CONCACAF tournament regulations do not specify how many years it should be organized, sometimes 1 year, sometimes 2 years, and there have been occasional attempts to do it once every 4 years as CONCACAF always adjusts for various reasons.
As 2016 is the Centennial Copa America, so in addition to the normal year held in the Copa America, 2016 again held once, so it is held for many consecutive years.2011 Argentina Copa America after four years after the Copa America was held normally in 2015, the team in the home country to take the Copa America title. And in the 2016 Centennial Copa America, the Chilean team successfully defended the Copa America title, and the Chilean team's two consecutive titles are in the final to beat the Argentine men's soccer team. This has become a permanent pain for the Argentine men's soccer team.
Even though the Copa America has been played four times in five years, the tournament's success has not been affected at all by the fact that the level of soccer in South America is quite high. It's also good to see the Copa America as the next best thing to the tournament. Although this five years and four tournaments for Messi is not a wonderful memory, after all, in the final of the successive losses make Messi once announced that he left the Argentina national team. But it was Messi's exit that made Argentina's men's soccer team finally cherish Messi's contribution, and Messi harvested his first Copa America with Argentina in 2021 and his first World Cup in 2022.
