Richarlison watches on as Brazil progress to Copa final

Tuesday, 2 July, 2019 1comment | Jump to most recent

Richarlison was an unused substitute as Brazil moved on to the final of the Copa America with a 2-0 win over Argentina.

Goals by Gabriel Jesus and Roberto Firmino were enough to eliminate the Albicelesti who twice hit the woodwork but couldn't find a way through.

Richarlison was cleared of an illness thought to be mumps this week but wasn't called upon.

Brazil will face Peru, the winners of the other semi-final after an impressive 3-0 victory over Chile that relied on some finely crafted breakaway goals by Flores, Yotàºn and Guerrero. The Copa America final kicks of at 21:00 BST on Sunday.

He'll score the winner in the final and come back feeling 10 feet tall, which will be a good thing for all concerned.
