Everything which is good, unfortunately, has to end. This morning finished Copa America Centenario, one of the oldest international competition who already broke many records, like attendance and worldwide TV viewership. We all knew that this was an anniversary, a 100 year old event, edition number 45, which from total 20 teams participated in the tournament - 16 of them were playing the finals with 32 games in 24 days. For the first time in its history one North American country (USA) was the proud host of the competition with 2 confederations participating - CONMEBOL and CONCACAF across 10 cities. But there are more numbers from this tournament.

Copa America started in January with the 2 play off games for the finals. In those two games in Panama City, Panama we saw 5 goals.
As for the finals itself teams have found the net 91 times in 32 matches, or 2.84 goals per match. Most goals were scored in the second day of the group stage: in day 1 we had 14, day 2 the teams were very efficient with 30 goals and 5 goals less were scored in day 3. In the knockout stages we had 22 goals or 15 in quarters, 6 in semifinals and 1 in the finals (third place and final).
