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
At the same time you can lose half your games and still qualify which you could obviously never do in UEFA.
