Paraguay repeated their 2011 Copa America penalty shootout win over Brazil to set up a semi-final meeting
with Argentina.
Former Manchester City striker Robinho scored on his 99th
appearance to give Brazil a 15th-minute lead as he tucked away a Dani Alves cross.
But Thiago Silva's second-half handball allowed Derlis Gonzalez to equalise from the spot and force the shootout.
Brazil then missed two attempts and went out as Gonzalez again converted.
Paraguay play Argentina in Concepcion at 00:30 BST on 1
July with the other semi-final seeing host country Chile meet Peru ahead of the final in Santiago on 4 July.
