Suarez, Neymar and Messi are among the 8 South American players in history to reach 50 international goals.

Counting active players, Cavani is another one.

Tells you about how a massive feat that is in the region.

Qualifying for the tournaments is easier overall for the big South American teams because they are much better than the weaker teams over the course of many games, but there is no comparison between the actual difficulty of the games. Weak South American teams are still incredibly difficult to beat. There isn't a single easy game in CONMEBOL

Agreed. It's not like we have a Gibraltar or Malta or St Vincent and the Grenadines or Puerto Rico.
