The 2022 Women's Copa América is underway. The tournament started last Friday, July 8, and has already given us a few sweet highlights.
One example is this magnificent free-kick rocket from Manchester City striker Deyna Castellanos in Venezuela's 1-0 win over Uruguay.

And, of course, the fantastic exhibition of Brazil putting four over Argentina.
How to watch the 2022 Women's Copa América in the U.S.?
Even though some games are already history, there's still a lot of action ahead. And best of all, you can watch them from your couch in the U.S.
The options are multiple, depending on your language of preference:
- Fox Sports (FS1 and FS2) for English audiences
- TUDN and ViX for Spanish audiences
2022 Women's Copa América Format
In the first part of the tournament, the 10 members of CONMEBOL have been divided into two groups of five teams each.
Group A: Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador and Paraguay
Group B: Argentina, Brasil, Perú, Uruguay and Venezuela
The two best teams from each group advance to the semifinals, and then the two winners of those matches will decide who's going to be champion. The event, by the way, determines places for the 2023 World Cup and the 2024 Olympics Games.

Who gets those spots?
2023 World Cup: CONMEBOL has three direct tickets to the tournament and two slots for an intercontinental playoff.
The finalist and the third-place winner are going straight to the World Cup in Australia and New Zealand. On the other hand, the third-place loser and the fifth-place winner (to be decided between the two third-placed teams in the group stage) will have a second chance in the intercontinental playoff.
2024 Olympics Games: CONMEBOL has two spots in the Parisian event, and those two tickets are for the finalists in the Copa América.
