Uruguay Beats Brazil in Copa America Shootout

Uruguay defeated Brazil 4-2 in a penalty shootout after a physical 0-0 draw, advancing to the Copa America semifinals where they will face Colombia. The match, held at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, was marked by a tournament-high 41 fouls and saw Uruguay's Nahitan Nández sent off in the 74th minute. Despite the man advantage, Brazil, missing key players Vinícius Júnior and Neymar, struggled to capitalize. Manuel Ugarte scored the decisive penalty for Uruguay, who displayed a tenacious defense and high-pressing style under coach Marcelo Bielsa. Brazil now shifts its focus to World Cup qualifying, sitting sixth in the South American standings.
