- Brazil vs Argentina ended 2-0 in favour of the hosts as they made it through to the finals
- Goals from Gabriel Jesus and Roberto Firmino were enough to seal the win
- Lionel Messi's chances of winning a trophy for Argentina has suffered another setback
Brazil vs Argentina ended in a 2-0 win for the host nation as they qualified into the Copa America finals.
Tite's side scored a goal in each half by Gabriel Jesus and Roberto Firmino to continue their dominance over their South American rivals in the competition.
Jesus was left unmarked as Liverpool star Firmino whipped in a low cross for the Manchester City striker to side-foot home from close range.
Argentina were unlucky as Sergio Aguero's header hit the post in the first half while Lionel Messi's ball came against the wood-work 11 minutes after the restart.
The Samba Boys had to wait until the 71st minute before they doubled their lead at the Estadio Governador Magalhaes Pinto.
Jesus and Firmino combined again on the counter-attack after a brilliant move from the City striker and gave the Liverpool attacker the simplest of tap-ins to make it 2-0.
Argentina had five players booked in the match, with only Dani Alves the only player to see a yellow card for Brazil as the 36-year-old kept Messi and Angel DiMaria quiet.
