International soccer takes center stage today with the continuation of the Copa America, Women’s World Cup, and the return of Euro 2016 qualification matches.

In Europe, there are two matches to highlight that could determine who ends up as group winners. Croatia host Italy, having drawn 1-1 in their first meeting last November. A win for Croatia means they’ll go five points up over Italy, but a win for Gli Azzuri puts them atop Group H.

Elsewhere, high-powered Belgium visit Wales with both teams level on 11 points and gunning for at least the top two places in Group B, with Israel not far behind.

In Copa America action, Mexico opens up their tournament campaign against Bolivia in beautiful Viña del Mar. And over in Canada at the Women’s World Cup, Australia faces Nigeria, Switzerland takes on Ecuador, defending champions Japan face Cameroon, and of course the U.S. Women’s National Team takes on Sweden in the match to watch of the night.
