Draw
The draw was held on 29 September 2014, 20:15 UYT (UTC−3), at the Hipódromo Nacional de Maroñas in Montevideo.[8] The ten teams were drawn into two groups of five. Argentina and Brazil were seeded into Group A and Group B respectively and assigned to position 1 in their group. Paraguay and Uruguay were also seeded into Group A and Group B respectively but assigned to position 2 within their group (As host, Uruguay decided to play in group B). The remaining teams were placed into "pairing pots" (Colombia–Ecuador, Chile–Peru, Bolivia–Venezuela) and drawn to determine their group as well as the position within it.[6]
First stage
The top three teams in each group qualified for the final stage.
When teams finished level of points, the final order was determined according to:[3]
- superior goal difference in all matches
- greater number of goals scored in all group matches
- better result in matches between the tied teams
- drawing of lots
All match times are in local Uruguay Summer Time (UTC−02:00).

Qualified teams for Summer Olympics
Same as previous Youth Championships that were held one year prior to the Olympics, CONMEBOL used the tournament to determine which men's under-23 national teams from South America qualify for the Olympic football tournament. Since Brazil already qualified automatically as hosts of the 2016 Summer Olympics men's football tournament, the top-ranked team other than Brazil qualified directly, while the second top-ranked team other than Brazil advanced to a play-off against the third-placed team of the 2015 CONCACAF Men's Olympic Qualifying Championship for the final berth in the Olympics.[11] Since Brazil finished third in the tournament, Argentina qualified for the Olympics,[12] while Colombia advanced to the play-off, where they defeated the United States to become CONMEBOL's third Olympic representative.[13]
