That concludes our coverage of this match, but stay tuned with Tribe as the UEFA Euro knockouts kick off later tonight. This is Sanil Karan signing off for now.
Brazil's triumph propel them to four points, trailing leaders Colombia by two points. Their upcoming clash on Wednesday will determine the Group D winners and quarter-final qualifiers. Meanwhile, Paraguay's upcoming match against Costa Rica will serve as a matter of pride, following Costa Rica's defeat to Colombia and Paraguay's exit from the tournament due to tonight's outcome.
After four consecutive matches without scoring against their opponents and desperate for a breakthrough in Las Vegas, Paraguay finally ended their drought three minutes into the second half, with Alderete redeeming himself with a remarkable long-range strike. However, Daniel Garnero's team suffered another setback when Mathias Villasanti committed a handball, resulting in Lucas Paqueta successfully converting the penalty. Adding to their woes, Andres Cubas received a straight red card in the 81st minute, further complicating Paraguay's night.
Brazil, eager to recover from their initial match disappointment, began aggressively with Joao Gomes and Lucas Paqueta missing early chances. Paraguay responded with a threat from Damian Bobadilla, requiring Alisson's intervention. A penalty miss by Paqueta added drama, but Brazil found the breakthrough with Vinicius Júnior's composed finish. In a devastating seven-minute period, Brazil sealed Paraguay's Copa América exit, with Savio and Vinicius scoring to secure a decisive victory before half time!
