The Seleçao, who came from a series of ten consecutive victories in all competitions, did not really hit the mark in this first phase, but finished well ahead of their group, with 10 points, three more than their runner-up, Peru. On Sunday, Eder Militao opened the scoring for Brazil before Angel Mena equalized after returning from the locker room.
Ecuador snatched Group B’s fourth ticket to the quarter-finals, thanks to the precious point won against the Brazilians and the Peruvians’ 1-0 victory over Venezuela in Brasilia. Brazil will know its opponent in the quarter-finals on Monday: it will be Chile or Uruguay. In the event of a defeat against Paraguay, the Uruguayans will inherit the Brazilian favorites on Friday in Rio de Janeiro.
