Brazil vs Peru: Copa America semi-final, times, TV & how to watch online

All the information you need on how and where to watch Brazil face Peru in the 2021 Copa América at the Estádio Olímpico Nilton Santos.

Update:
Brazil-Peru: Copa America

Brazil survived losing Gabriel Jesus to a red card early in the second half to defeat Chile 1-0 in a thrilling Copa America tie last Friday and move into a semi-final tonight against Peru.

The host nation will play Peru, who beat Paraguay on penalties late last week at Rio de Janeiro’s Nilton Santos stadium on July 5 with a kick-off of 20:00 (local time) / 01:00 (CEST on Tuesday).

Tite touts history

Brazil head coach Tite will attempt an historic result on Monday as his side face Peru in the Copa America semi-finals.

The defending champions battled into the last four after beating Chile 1-0 despite playing almost all of the second half with 10 men following Gabriel Jesus' red card for an awful high challenge.

They have now gone 12 games in all competitions without defeat, keeping a clean sheet in nine of those, while Tite is yet to lose a match in this competition while in charge of the Selecao.

Should they reach the final this time around, the 60-year-old will equal Mario Zagallo as the Brazil coach with the longest unbeaten run in Copa America history (12 games).

Standing in the hosts' way are a Peru side who came through a thrilling quarter-final against Paraguay, which ended 3-3 after extra time and with each side down to 10 men.

In the end, Miguel Trauco's sudden-death penalty secured Peru's place in the semi-finals for the fourth time in five tournaments.

Head coach Ricardo Gareca has only managed to beat Brazil twice in 10 attempts, with their previous meeting in the 2021 group stage ending in a 4-0 win for the five-time world champions.

Brazil have also not lost a Copa America match on home soil since 1975 – but that 3-1 defeat came at the hands of Peru in the semi-final first leg of their triumphant campaign.

What time does Brazil vs Peru kick off?

The 2021 Copa América semi-final match between Brazil and Peru will kick off at the Estádio Olimpico, (Rio de Janiero), on Monday 14 June 2021 at 8 pm local time.
