Brazil beats Ecuador, wins Group B

Brazil finished first in Group B and will play Paraguay in the next round. Ecuador was eliminated.

Striker Felipe Caicedo scored for Ecuador in the 37th and 58th.

Earlier, in Salta, Argentina, Grenddy Adrian Perozo scored two minutes into second-half stoppage time as Venezuela rallied for a 3-3 draw with Paraguay.

The result was still good enough to get Paraguay through to the quarterfinals from Group B, eliminating Costa Rica from the South American competition. Venezuela had already advanced.
