The competition, which was held from September 2016 to June 2017, was won by Brazil, who succeeded in 7 of the 9 matches played—with 23 points in total. The podium was completed by Peru (15 points) and Chile (13 points), who obtained the silver and the bronze medals respectively.
As winners, Brazil secured the right to compete at the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia (competition to which actually they already qualified via the round robin).
