The Western Hemisphere’s best soccer teams and best players will visit the United States this month for one of the game’s biggest prizes — Copa America 2016.
Games will be held all over the country, including at Gillette Stadium in Foxboro, Mass., and even if Team USA doesn’t stand much of a chance against the likes of Mexico, Argentina and Brazil, it’s still a chance for the U.S. to prove its place as a soccer-loving nation worthy of hosting the World Cup in future years.
The Copa America action starts Friday, June 3, and runs through June 26, and you can see the entire schedule below.
