The second game was the clash between Brazil and Costa Rica. SoFi Stadium in the Los Angeles suburb of Inglewood, California, United States hosted the game.
Brazil made a very disappointing appearance, and failed in capturing a victory in their first 2024 Copa America appearance by having a 0-0 draw with Costa Rica.
Brazil's star, who is still recovering from torn ACL injury, Neymar was spotted watching the game and he seemed very interactive with the game.
