The 2021 Copa America is five days away from its championship match at the Estadio do Maracana in Rio de Janeiro, and Brazil will be there.
The defending champion Selecao is the first team to advance to the July 10 title match, where it will have the chance to repeat as champs. The Brazilian side beat Peru 1-0 in the semifinal round on a goal by Lucas Paqueta, relegating Peru to play in Friday’s consolation third-place match.
Many were expecting to see a Brazil vs. Argentina final before the tournament started and that may still materialize with Lionel Messi & Co. facing Colombia in Tuesday’s other semifinal.

Copa America 2021: How it works
One of the 10 South American nations that comprise the CONMEBOL soccer confederation will be crowned continental champion at the Copa America. The 10 teams were split into two groups of five, with the top four finishers in each group advancing to the quarterfinals. It’s now a straight single-elimination knockout phase starting with the quarterfinals.
Group stage: After round-robin group play, the top four finishers in each of the two groups advanced to the quarterfinals and the fifth-place team in each group was eliminated.
Knockout stage: The single-elimination knockouts began with the quarterfinals. The four teams qualifying from Group A faced the four teams advancing from Group B with respective top seeds facing the lowest seeds in the opposite group: 1A vs. 4B, 1B vs. 4A, 2A vs. 3B, 2B vs. 3A.
