The Copa America is the world's oldest international football tournament that is still running, and it is second only to the World Cup and the Euros in terms of viewing figures.

The 2021 Copa America, having been pushed back in 2020, was due to be co-hosted by Colombia and Argentina, but both nation's were stripped of their hosting rights by CONMEBOL, who awarded the finals to Brazil instead, just two weeks before the competition was set to begin.

So in this documentary, HITC Sevens takes a look at the chaos going on in South America right now, why Argentina and Colombia were removed as hosts, why Brazil is such a controversial replacement, and the football war between Brazil boss Tite and the country's president Jair Bolsonaro.
