Gabriel Jesus and Roberto Firmino fire Brazil into Copa America final

Goals from Gabriel Jesus and Roberto Firmino have fired Brazil into the Copa America final at the expense of Argentina.

Manchester City striker Gabriel opened the scoring in Belo Horizante after being set-up by Dani Alves and Liverpool star Firmino.

It was then the Reds hit-man who got in on the act, doubling his team's advantage after 57 minutes.

The loss could be the last international appearance for Argentina and Barcelona star Lionel Messi, who came close to scoring in the second half.

Tite's side will play either Peru or Chile in the final.
