The schedule for the 2016 Copa America Centenario to be held in the USA next summer, as well as the four group seeds – Argentina, Brazil, Mexico and the United States – as well as the cities each seeded nation will visit.
**The Draw to determine group stage matches will take place on February 21st at 7:30 pm ET, at the Hammerstein Ballroom in New York City! Seeding for the draw will be based upon 2015 FIFA World Rankings. Tickets will go on sale after the draw**
The tournament is scheduled to run from June 3 through June 26 with the final set for MetLife Stadium in New York. Little bit of a surprise that the final will be in New York and not in the bigger Rose Bowl in LA, where the 1994 World Cup Final was held.As the host nation, the United States earns the Group A seed, while Argentina, as the highest FIFA-ranked nation in the Americas (per December FIFA rankings), will be seeded top of Group D.We now know the seeded teams and the cities each seeded nation will visit and the dates they will play during the group phase of the tournament. The way the schedule it set up, Brazil and Argentina are in opposite brackets.2016 Copa America Centenario Tournament Schedule
