Colombia, who topped Group D with seven points, will face Panama in the quarter-finals after a hard-fought draw against Brazil. It was a match that lived up to its billing, with both sides giving it their all from the get-go. Daniel Munoz’s first-half strike for Colombia canceled out an early, impressive free kick from Brazil’s Raphinha. The result extended Colombia’s unbeaten streak to an impressive 26 games, although it did end their 10-match winning run. Colombia coach Nestor Lorenzo said of the match, “It was a game we all wanted to play to measure ourselves, and I think we took another step forward today. With Brazil, you can’t afford to take your eye off the ball for a second. We’re satisfied with our performance against a tough opponent, and now we focus on Panama.” Brazil defender Marquinhos acknowledged that the team has room to improve: “We have to be honest with ourselves; we still have a lot of growing to do and a lot to improve, especially in these big games.” The matc...

Colombia have secured their spot in the quarter-finals, leading Group D with six points from their first two games. Brazil sits comfortably in second place with four points. Costa Rica and Paraguay bring up the rear, with one and zero points respectively. Paraguay’s hopes of advancing have been dashed after consecutive losses. The match sprung to life from the first whistle, with Vinicius’ pace and trickery causing havoc for Paraguay down the left flank. This was a marked improvement from his lackluster performance in Brazil’s goalless draw against Costa Rica, where he struggled to make an impact. Brazil dominated the early exchanges, but it was Paraguay who came closest to opening the scoring in the 15th minute. Damian Bobadilla’s effort took a wicked deflection off Eder Militao, forcing a quick reaction save from Alisson Becker to keep the scores level. The game took a turn in Brazil’s favor when they were awarded a penalty for a handball in the 28th minute. However, Lucas Paquet...

Colombia sits atop their group with an impressive six points from their first two games, leading Costa Rica and Brazil, who have one point each. Paraguay brings up the rear with zero points and will face Brazil later today. ‘Los Cafeteros’ are on a remarkable run of form, having secured ten consecutive victories and an unbeaten streak of 25 matches. With their sights set on their first Copa America title since 2001, they look unstoppable. Nestor Lorenzo’s squad could potentially secure their top spot in the group if Brazil and Paraguay draw later today, which would spare them from a likely quarter-final clash with Uruguay. Even if that doesn’t happen, a draw in their final group game against Brazil on Tuesday will likely be enough to see them through. Costa Rica, despite their loss, still has a chance with one point. However, they need to win their last match against Paraguay and hope for favorable results in other games. Colombia dominated from the start and took the lead in the ...
