2015 Copa América disciplinary record

June 2015 In the 2015 Copa América, the main disciplinary action taken against players came in the form of red and yellow cards. Any player picking up a red card was expelled from the pitch and automatically banned for his country's next match, whether via a straight red or second yellow. After a straight red card, FIFA would conduct a hearing and could extend this ban beyond one match. If the ban extended beyond the end of the finals (i.e. if a player was sent off in the match in which his team was eliminated), it had to be served in the team's next competitive international match(es). In most cases, that was the first matches of 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifying.
