The Copa America has grown and matured into one of the most important events on the world sporting calendar and has evolved from relatively humble beginnings to what it is today.
In 1916, when the first tournament took place, only four nations took part, but by 1993, this had risen to 12, with CONMEBOL, the governing body for South American football, inviting teams from CONCACAF, which represents North and Central America, to help further boost the scope and scale of the competition.
Millions of fans attend the finals in the host nation, and the event is always a hugely attractive one for football supporters who are either fanatical supporters of a competing nation or just very intrigued neutrals who love the game.
Colombia vs Paraguay Copa America Tournament Record
Colombia took part in their first Copa America in 1945 and took a while to settle into the tournament, with their runners-up finish in 1975 signaling a marked improvement on previous form.
Los Cafeteros hosted the event for the first time in 2001 and proceeded to clinch their maiden title. They topped their group after beating Chile, Ecuador, and Venezuela before defeating Peru and Honduras to reach the Copa America Final.
There they took on Mexico and won thanks to a goal from Inter Milan bruiser Ivan Cordoba to send the home fans in Bogota into raptures.
To date, this is the only title Colombia have managed, but in both 2016 and 2019, they reached the Semi-Finals, losing to Chile and Argentina, respectively.
Paraguay played in their first tournament in 1921 and finished runners-up the following year but had to wait until 1953 to get their hands on the famous trophy.
That win came off the back of a somewhat surprising victory over Brazil in the Play-off in Lima.
1979 saw Los Guaraníes clinch their second title, but they have not been able to add to that tally ever since. In 2011 they came mighty close to doing so.
In Argentina, they managed to reach the Copa America Final, having drawn all five of their previous matches to get there, winning both their Quarter-Final and Semi-Final matches after penalties.
They faced a hugely talented Uruguay side in Buenos Aires, and former Liverpool legend Luis Suarez opened the scoring before Diego Forlan bagged two to see Paraguay soundly beaten 3-0.
Colombia vs Paraguay Head-to-Head
These two nations have faced each other in Copa America matches on numerous occasions, with Paraguay historically having the better time of it.
In 2007 former Manchester City man Roque Santa Cruz netted a hat-trick in a 5-0 thumping of Colombia in a group phase clash.
2016 saw Colombia edge out Paraguay 2-1 in Pasadena, and in 2019, they won again, with Gustavo Cuellar scoring the only goal of the game in another group phase clash.
