CONCACAF has announced the kickoff times for all of the Copa America Centenario games that will be played on US soil this summer.
The good news for soccer fans is that none of the games clash with the Euro 2016 competition, so fans will be able to watch the best teams in Europe play on TV in the morning and afternoons, and then have a chance to watch soccer in-person in the evenings to see the stars from North and South America.
The tournament will include Brazil, Argentina, USA, Mexico, Colombia and the following other countries: Chile, Ecuador, Uruguay, Bolivia, Paraguay, Peru, Venezuela, Costa Rica, Jamaica, Haiti and Panama.
That means we have the prospect of seeing many of the best soccer players in the world on US soil including Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez, Neymar, Sergio Aguero, James Rodriguez and more.
