Brazil continues to win. The tenth straight victory, and third straight in the Copa América, came last night against Colombia. But it was hard, and an involuntary refereeing effort was required for Brazil to be able to win 2-1.
After a Colombian lead goal, Brazil was on for an equalizer, which delayed until the 78th minute. The Colombian players protested for a long time without result when the goal, which Roberto Firmino nodded in, was preceded by the ball in the foreplay going through the referee Néstor Pitana – which had made the Colombians stop.
