Copa America: Two Big PKs From Derlis Gonzalez (One In Regulation, One In The Shootout) Carry Paraguay Past Brazil

At Concepcion, Chile:

Derlis Gonzalez converted two penalty kicks on Saturday.  The first one in the 72nd minute deadlocked Paraguay's match with Brazil at 1-1 in regulation, the second one was the game winner in the penalty-kick shootout as the Paraguayans ousted the Samba Boys 4-3 in the shootout as the quarterfinal round of the Copa America came to a close.  

Paraguay will battle Argentina at Concepcion on Wednesday in a semifinal contest, with the winner to meet the Chile-Peru survivor in the final next Saturday at Santiago.
