Copa America 2024: Vinicius Jr. stars with brace as Brazil thrash Paraguay 4-1

India Today  

Brazil's Vinicius Jr scored twice in a 4-1 victory over Paraguay in a Group D clash at the Copa America on Friday in Nevada, marking a significant turnaround from his underwhelming performance in Brazil's 0-0 draw against Costa Rica in their opening match. This match also marked Brazil's first victory in six competitive matches and the first under their new manager, Dorival Jr, who took over the team in January. However, Paraguay almost took the lead in the 15th minute when Damian Bobadilla's deflected shot nearly beat Brazil goalkeeper Alisson Becker, who made a crucial save. Girona winger Savio extended Brazil's lead by capitalising on a rebound inside the box, and Vinicius added his second goal just before halftime by redirecting a clearance from Omar Alderete into the net.
