Officials

Group stage

The teams were divided into three groups of four teams each. The formation of the groups was made by CONMEBOL in a public drawing of lots.[2]

Each team plays one match against each of the other teams within the same group. Three (3) points are awarded for a win, one (1) point for a draw and zero (0) points for a defeat.

First and second placed teams, in each group, advance to the quarter-finals. The best third placed team and the second best third placed team, also advance to the quarter-finals.

Tie-breaking criteria

Teams were ranked on the following criteria:

1. Greater number of points in all group matches
2. Goal difference in all group matches
3. Greater number of goals scored in all group matches
4. Head-to-head results
5. Drawing of lots by the CONMEBOL Organising Committee

Theme songs
  • "Más Allá de los Sueños" by Peruvian singer-songwriter Gianmarco was the official theme song for the tournament.[5] The song was well received and became popular in Latin America but mostly in Perú.[6][7][8][9] Despite it being the official tournament theme song, Gian Marco was unable to perform it during the closing ceremony due to him being on tour at that time.[10]
  • "La Copa Será Tuya Al Final" by Betzaida was used by Univision as their theme song.[11][12][13]
