well, it is what it is...the World Cup is going be held in higher esteem than anything else.
Copa has a long history in SA though, and winning in Brazil is pretty huge for Argentina. Happy for Messi to win something at the senior level, even if it is a step below the WC and the Olympics (presumably)
It would be better if Mexico and the USA (and some of the other carribean countries) were a part of Copa though...and Canada if they ever get up to that level
