A remarkable day due to the Paraguayan temperature. Firstly, in the morning, under the radiant sun, the fate of the members of Group B of the competition was decided. Then, in the cool afternoon, Group A found its qualifiers after two exciting matches.
GROUP A
The first zone of the competition was clearly dominated by the Argentine team, which won all three of its presentations without suffering any goals against.
On today’s day, they thrashed Paraguay 12-0 to secure first place. Uruguay qualified as second. The charrúas earned the right after defeating Canada 3-0 in the first round of the afternoon, in a direct duel to get into the semifinals.
GROUP B
The development of this zone was similar to the previous one, with a marked difference from the United States over the rest. The North Americans were victorious in their three games, in which they accumulated 23 goals in favor and none against.
They confirmed their leading position today by defeating Guyana 11-0. The second in the zone, and also qualified for the fight for the medals, was Chile, which defeated Mexico 4-2 in a vibrant match in the direct clash for that ticket.
SEMIFINALS
The semifinal will take place on Sunday afternoon when, in the first turn, Argentina faces Chile and, later, the United States meets Uruguay. Before, on that same day, the matches for the reclassification of the tournament will be played.
