South America
The 2006 Sudamericano Femenino acted as qualifier for CONMEBOL. Originally, a women's football tournament at the 2006 South American Games in Buenos Aires would serve as qualifier tournament, but the South American Games committee scrapped football from the games, forcing the Argentine Football Association to organize a tournament on short notice.
On November 24, Brazil qualified by earning six points. Argentina qualified on November 26 by defeating Brazil and earning a total of 7, thus winning the tournament.

Famous quotes containing the words south and/or america:
“In the far South the sun of autumn is passing
Like Walt Whitman walking along a ruddy shore.
He is singing and chanting the things that are part of him,
The worlds that were and will be, death and day.
Nothing is final, he chants. No man shall see the end.
His beard is of fire and his staff is a leaping flame.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
“Europe has a press that stresses opinions; America a press, radio, and television that emphasize news.”
—James Reston (b. 1909)
