Youtube had announced that they will be live streaming the tournament. The Copa America is known for some of the most interesting matches and wonder goals. But because of the lack of interest in my country, we do not get to see the live action. With this announcement, I am looking forward to the start of the tournament. For those who are interest, you can check out the website, http://www.youtube.com/copaamerica

The Copa America starts on the 1st of July and the social media platform announced that they will air all games of the competition for free. "Fans will have access to all 26 matches including pool play, semi-finals, quarter-finals and the championship match, live streaming as they happen with exclusive-to-YouTube commentary, as well as a highlights from all the matches, goal compilations, full-game uploads and more," stated YouTube in a blog post. Only, the sad news is that youtube will stream the games for 50 countries around the world, but the UK is not on the list.

Hey, don't be sad. Cheer up. I have good news for you. You don't have to worry about missing a game again. Actually you can watch the game on the internet. Not just copa america, in fact a lot of sports event. All you need to do is go to this websites. www.myp2p.eu . There are a lot of live broadcast available. Some sites streaming working and some are not. All you need to do is looking for the link that really works. And if you want to watch the game in HD or HQ mode, you need to install Vettle TV or Sopcast. In myp2p, there are a few sites broadcast with this program and the quality is absolutely good. You can try to watch with myp2p now and if you have difficulty, you can ask me for help.

I am a Sopcast user and I encounter great difficulties. The service provider and the TV company with the rights to show the matches are the same. During match time, they will block access to Sopcast. I have did many trials and error before I managed to get around it.

The main problem with Copa America is that the games are held too late for us, because the time zone difference. I would be very interested to watch some of the games, but I won't stay up the whole night for this. Maybe I will watch a few games, and I think it is great that Youtube is broadcasting the tournament.

I am from Asia and is used to the matches being played at odd hours, especially the european ties. In fact, South American games are played in a more "sane" timing but the problem is that I should be in office working when the action is going on.

wow... that's great. It's good for youtube to broadcast live football. But besides that, there is another sites where we can also watch live broadcast on the internet. www.myp2p.eu . We can also watch in HQ or HD when we had Sopcast and Vettle TV. Not just football, we can watch any sports from myp2p.

This is very good news. In my country, most of the games will be televised, but not all so it will be nice to be able to see all the matches. Also, others countries will get to see this tough tournament. This year Copa America promises to be really interesting with the rise of Uruguay and, of course, with the rivalry between Brazil and Argentina.

I am not sure if they will stream the live actions from the big european and champions League. The TV companies that bought the rights to screen those matches will definitely be crying foul and will do all things to stop it from going through.

This is good news because I don't know of any television that will broadcast this event in my country,so I will try to watch some of the matches on youtube,although it will be very late at night in Romania.Anyway,Copa America is the oldest continental tournament in the world and I'm sure it will offer many spectacular moments,so it's definitely worth watching.
