Costa Rica Beats Paraguay 2-1 in Copa América Group D Match
Costa Rica advances to the knockout round despite loss
Costa Rica defeated Paraguay 2-1 in their final Copa América Group D match on Tuesday night, but the victory was not enough to secure a spot in the knockout round. Costa Rica finished third in the group with four points, behind winners Argentina and runners-up Chile.
Paraguay took the lead in the match through Miguel Almirón in the 30th minute, but Costa Rica equalized through Joel Campbell just before halftime. Anthony Contreras scored the winning goal for Costa Rica in the 58th minute.
