Australia To Participate In 2020 Copa America
Australia have officially accepted their invite to compete in Copa America 2020.
The Socceroos will compete in the South American tournament alongside fellow Asian nation Qatar – who are competing at this year’s edition alongside Japan.
Football Federation Australia chairman Chris Nikou is excited to see the green and gold compete in the Copa America for the first time.
“We are ecstatic that our Socceroos will be participating in this prestigious competition for the first time in our history,” Nikou said.
The 2020 Copa America will be hosted in Argentina and Colombia and take place between June 12 and July 12.
Socceroos coach Graham Arnold is adamant the tournament is an ideal test for Australia alongside 2022 World Cup qualifying.
