    Came across an interesting article listing 10 heroes of the Copa America from over the years

    http://www.midfielddynamo.com/cups/ca/10_heroes.htm

    Got me thinking who else over the years has perfomed well at the Copa ?

    What about Luis Hernández in Bolivia 1997 ? Great tournament helped seal his move to Boca, although it all went a bit pear-shaped after that !

    well, considering their last-minute inclusion into the tournament, Honduras did an excellent job in 2001.

    Though the 2001 tournament was kind of dubious, unusual.

    Los puntajes como se obtuvieron??

    Algo que veo en muchos rankings, sobre todo, con votaciones abiertas a cualquier fan, es que la mayoria de jugadores son de los ultimos 10 años.

    Cuando la Copa America tiene casi 100 años, realmente se toma en cuenta una pequeña muestra del 10%.

    Muchos deberian ser mas honestos y decir "los mejores jugadores que vi en mi vida" o "los mejores de los ultimos 10 años", etc.

    Creo que esta copa nos dejo 4 nombres

    4 leyendas: PAOLO GUERRERO- SUAREZ- FORLAN Y MUSLERA

    la mejor atajada de la copa: la de muslera a tevez en tiro libre y el rapido remate al pecho

    el mejor gol de la copa (segun ESPN top 10) #2venezuela en triangulacion para vencer a elizaga por primera vez, gol del maestrico gonzalez

    #1 el gol de tevez a pase de pechito del pipita....vs Bolivia
