The other quarter-finals will be played on Saturday, with Argentina playing Ecuador and Uruguay facing Colombia. Friday's tie between the last two Copa America champions was more closely fought than their form coming into the game suggested. Brazil were unbeaten in 11 games and topped Group B, while Chile finished only fourth in Group A and have drawn four of their last six matches 1-1. Brazil were reduced to 10 men after Gabriel Jesus was shown a straight red for a horrific kung-fu kick that sent Eugenio Mena tumbling. "We were beaten by the favourites, the team playing at home," said Chilean midfielder Arturo Vidal.
