Uruguay can get some relief after seeing the results of their matches. And anyway, like Argentina or Brazil, at least they didn’t have to face defeat. A goalless draw against Venezuela led to them. But the other two giants of Latin are sitting losing their matches. Brazil lost their match against the underdogs Paraguay. And Argentina’s forehead burned near Colombia.

The responsibility behind Brazil’s loss, however, is their own. The question of many on social media, is this the worst team in Brazil? Coach Dorival announced the final of the Junior World Cup 24 hours ago. And going to the field, Brazil was busy proving their coach wrong. Brazil did not break Paraguay’s low block defense in the whole match.

However, coach Dorival also admitted that his team lacks players who can make a difference in the opposition’s d-box. As such, Vinicius may get some forgiveness! However, coach Dorival may also want to find the answer to the question of why Danilo, Gabriel or Marcinhos are playing well in the European club but faded in the yellow of Brazil. 4 losses in the last 5 matches can be blamed on the defence.

Argentina’s loss is no less embarrassing. This is the first defeat of the season for Lionel Scaloni’s side. The last time they lost was in November last year. Along with this, Argentina’s undefeated record against Colombia for 5 years after the 2019 Copa America has also been broken today. This loss stopped the unbeaten journey of 12 consecutive matches of the world champions.

Both of Colombia’s goals against Argentina came from the deadball. First, a one-on-one from the corner and a cross by James Rodriguez. And from there Yerson Mosquera headed the goal. And the second is the penalty of Hames Rodríguez. Argentina also suffered from spot kicks in the Copa America. How Scaloni will overcome such a weakness may be a big challenge in front of Argentina.

Of course, judging by the comparative position, Brazil will seem more disorganized. This loss dropped Brazil to fifth place in the 2026 World Cup South America qualifiers. This is Brazil’s fourth loss in the last five matches including this match. Their achievement in 8 matches is a total of 10 points. Also, they managed to score more than 2 goals only once in the last match. That too in the Copa America against this Paraguay. But after two months, Paraguay beat Brazil in a new shame.

The last time Brazil and Argentina lost on the same night was in November 2023. Coincidentally, the names of Colombia and Uruguay were also linked that night. Argentina lost to Uruguay in November’s qualifying match. And Brazil lost against Colombia that day with a margin of 2-0 goals.

After this match, Argentina remains at the top of the Latin World Cup qualifiers. Argentina has 18 points from 8 matches. Colombia came second with 16 points. Uruguay dropped to third place with 15 points. Brazil has dropped below Ecuador. Seleção’s position is fifth. Their achievement is 10 points from 8 matches. Ecuador is fourth with 11 points.
