Brazil
may hope again for Copa America
after its wonderful match on Sunday against Chile.
A hat-trick from Robinho gave Brazil a 3-0 victory and the team
has now a chance to advance to the quarterfinals of the Copa America.
Robinho scored his first goal from the penalty spot in the
33rd minute and the others two in the second half.
"It is not my victory but the whole team's," Real Madrid striker Robinho
said. "I am very happy, but I am happier about the team's win than about
my three goals. Now we have to see the best Brazil, and I am sure we are going
to keep improving."
Despite the win, Brazilian media commented that the Dunga’s
team played badly and only Robinho’s efforts made the difference.
In the other match of Group B Mexico beat Ecuador 2-1 to
immediately qualify to the quarterfinals. Mexico
defeated Brazil
in the first round of Group B and is leading the group with six points.
Mexico’s
first goal against Ecuador
was scored in the first half Olympiakos striker Nery Castillo and Omar Brazo
made it 2-0 in the 79th minute.
Brazil is
yet to play Ecuador and Mexico will face Chile in the first round of the
Copa America.
