2 Giants Felled In Copa America

This past couple of days, both Brazil and Argentina, who are widely considered to be the 2 favorites to win the competition, both finished their first matches with disapointing draws. Argentina started the competition against Bolivia, and gave up an embarrasing first half own goal of a Bolivia corner. Argentina only equalized late in the game off of a stunning Sergio Aguero volley. Brazil opened up the tournament against Venezuela, and for the most part, dominated the game. The only thing they couldnt manage to do was score, the best chance happening just before halftime, when Robinho's shot beat the keeper but deflected off of Oswaldo Vizcarrondo's shoulder. Both teams expect to do better in their next matches, and with the star studded rosters they both posses, it is rightfully so.
