05.07 CESTUgarte scores and Uruguay go through! Full time: Uruguay 0-0 Brazil (4-2 pens) Manuel Ugarte calmly sends Alisson the wrong way to complete a memorable victory for Uruguay in a forgettable game. They will play Colombia in the semi-finals, and Brazil go out after winning only one of their four matches.

Marcelo Bielsa, a class act, leaves his players to celebrate and warmly embraces Raphinha.

05.01 CESTRochet saves from Eder Militao! Uruguay 1-0 Brazil Eder Militao strolls forward without a care in the world – but he’s got one now because Rochet has saved his penalty! It wasn’t the greatest kick, hit with pace but at saveable height.

04.59 CEST There was almost a fight before the penalty shootout. There’s some pushing and shoving in the centre circle, with Bentancur involved. Anyway, here we go, Fede Valverde is first up for Uruguay.

04.52 CEST So, a third penalty shootout in four quarter-finals. Brazil lost on penalties to Croatia at the last World Cup but beat Paraguay at this stage of the 2019 Copa. Uruguay have lost their last three shootouts, including the quarter-finals of 2019 and 2021.

04.44 CEST 87 min “Could this game have the record number of fouls in the tournament,” says Tom Mackintosh. “Or ever? Or the most dives? Or faking injuries?!”

I still have nightmares about being forced to watch the first half of Real Madrid v Barcelona in the 2011 Champions League semi-final. The ball was in play for about four minutes.

04.40 CEST 83 min Rochet goes down and needs treatment. The referee looks at him slightly wearily, unsure whether he’s trying it on, and then tells him he’s stopped the clock.

04.34 CEST 75 min “I feel like what we’re seeing at both Euro and Copa is an inevitable endpoint for the globalisation of football,” says Chris Paraskevas. “There was a time when South American teams played with a distinctive rhythm: something that couldn’t be imitated by European nations. Brazil obviously did it best over such a long period, blending their unique culture with pace, power and of course unmatched skill.

“Their decline is indicative of a wider issue in South American football: players and coaches getting sucked into a European style. Identity crisis doesn’t even begin to cover it.

“Looking around the room, the likes of Chile and Paraguay have gone backwards. Only Argentina have managed to retain the old “coiled spring” routine along whilst modernizing - and that’s down to the underrated management of Scaloni.”

While I know what you mean, it feels like we’ve been having this conversation since Sebastiao Lazaroni played a sweeper system with Brazil at Italia 90. I think the Euros and the Copa America have highlighted two other issues: the schedule – everyone looks shattered – and the brazen cheating.
