2015 Copa América disciplinary record
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
In the 2015 Copa América, the main disciplinary action taken against players comes in the form of red and yellow cards.
Any player picking up a red card is 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 will conduct a hearing and may extend this ban beyond one match. If the ban extends beyond the end of the finals (i.e. if a player is sent off in the match in which his team was eliminated), it must be served in the team's next competitive international match(es). In most cases, that will be the first matches of 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifying.
