Richarlison scored in injury-time as hosts Brazil made it two wins from two in the Copa America with a convincing 4-0 victory over Peru on Thursday night in Rio de Janeiro. Brazil manager Tite made six changes to the side that beat Venezuela 3-0 in their opening Group B game on Sunday, with Richarlison named on the bench. The Everton forward was introduced at half-time and grabbed his 10th goal for the Selecao in the 93rd minute, shooting past Pedro Gallese while lying on the ground after the Peru keeper had saved his first effort. The defending champions were cruising to victory by that point courtesy of Alex Sandro's 12th-minute opener and goals after the break from Neymar and Everton Ribeiro. Colombia sit second in the Group B table on four points after their goalless draw with Venezuela in Goiânia. Everton defender Yerry Mina played the full match for Colombia, who thought they had grabbed a late winner from Miguel Borja, only to see his effort ruled out for offside. His side were then reduced to 10 men when Luis Diaz was shown a straight red for foul play. It means Brazil and Colombia remain favourites to make the semi-finals of the competition, and the two nations face each other in Group B on Thursday (1am BST). Everton FC

Southgate was rubbish yesterday. Why does he keep starting Harry Kane when our boy is in hot form?

Everton defender Lucas Digne was forced into an early exit in France's 2-2 draw with Portugal on Wednesday after sustaining an injury shortly after coming on for the world champions.
The full-back entered the game at the start of the second half in the Euro 2020 final Group F clash in Budapest, replacing Lucas Hernandez, but lasted only six minutes as he felt a problem around his right quadricep muscle.
It is unclear the extent of the injury and the 27-year-old is due to be assessed by the France medical team in the coming days.
Digne started the game well, cutting out Cristiano Ronaldo's ball into Bernardo Silva before setting France off on the attack.
However, following a challenge by Nélson Semedo in the 50th minute, Digne felt his injury take impact and left the field of play a minute later.
France drew with Portugal, with Cristiano Ronaldo scoring two penalties, while Karim Benzema netted either side of the interval, including a penalty to make it 1-1.
Les Bleus will play in the round of 16 on Monday 28 June where they face Switzerland in Bucharest, while Portugal face Belgium.
