(UTV|COLOMBO) – Brazil forwards Gabriel Jesus and Roberto Firmino both scored as they beat arch-rivals Argentina 2-0 in the Copa America semi-final.
Jesus opened the scoring after 19 minutes when he sidefooted in a low cross from Firmino.
Sergio Aguero and Lionel Messi both struck the woodwork for Argentina, who have not beaten Brazil in a major competitive fixture since 2005.
A Firmino tap-in secured the win to set up a final against Peru or Chile.
Brazil’s win came at the same Mineirao stadium in Belo Horizonte where they were thumped 7-1 by Germany in the 2014 World Cup semi-finals.
