Brazil held to scoreless draw by Costa Rica at Copa America

"We were Bruce Willis in 'The Sixth Sense,' where the only one that did not know he was dead was him, right?" the Costa Rica boss said.

Brazil missed a string of chances and were left to rue a lack of quality in the final third after they were held 0-0 by Costa Rica in their Copa America Group D opener in Los Angeles on Monday.

Brazil, who came into the Copa America on the back of a run of poor results in recent months, dominated possession but lacked precision in front of goal with just three of their 19 shots on target.
