Godfathers of football named the oldest mascot

While two weeks ago we found out all groups for the Gold Cup and African Cup of Nations events (which both are beginning in couple of months time), past week the oldest international competition in the world is going one step further. Nowadays (almost) every event in this sport has to have at least a mascot just to decorate the competition.
The last continental tournament this year (who is also starting in two months time) is going to appear in Brazil with edition number 46. Copa America organizers had given spectators a chance to name the official mascot of the event. For just one week only, fans across the world had to name the cutest rodent which is friendly with other animals, and two choices were given between Capibi and Zizito. Capybara is the biggest animal of this kind who lives in South America, and football godfathers (lovers) last Friday at the official social media pages of the confederation have selected the second option.
With 65 percent of the votes the winner is a mix of words. This name is coming from the (joint) all-time top scorer of Copa America, Brazilian Thomaz Soares da Silva (better known as Zizinho) who put the ball 17 times behind various goalkeepers.
