Football: Brazil reach semi-finals of Copa America after beating Paraguay in penalty shoot-out

Goalkeeper Alisson made a save and Gabriel Jesus scored the decisive penalty as Brazil defeated 10-man Paraguay 4-3 in a penalty shootout to reach the semifinals of the Copa America. Alisson dived to his left to stop the penalty taken by defender Gustavo Gomez, and Gabriel Jesus sealed the victory to lead Brazil to its first semi-final appearance in the South American tournament since 2007. Brazil had been eliminated by Paraguay the last two times the teams met in the Copa America quarter-finals, in 2011 and 2015, both times in penalty shoot-outs.
