Though Paraguay has already been eliminated from the 2024 Copa America, the result of their tilt against Costa Rica tonight will have major implications for the rest of Group D.
Colombia has already advanced, but they’ve yet to lock up the top spot and Group D’s second spot is still up for grabs. Costa Rica can advance with a win and a Brazil loss in their match, also airing at 9:00 p.m. ET tonight, and must also make up a deficit of at least six goals. Any result other than that will see Brazil move on to the knockout round.
Tonight’s game airs on FS2, but Sling TV and DIRECTV Stream will carry the game at a discount or free entirely for new subscribers.
When is the Costa Rica vs. Paraguay match at the 2024 Copa America?
Costa Rica and Paraguay face off tonight, July 2 at 9:00 p.m. ET.

How to watch Costa Rica vs. Paraguay for free:
There’s more than a week of Copa America left, but if you want to watch some of it for free, DIRECTV Stream offers a five-day free trial for new subscribers. However, you have to subscribe to the Ultimate plan to get FS2, as it’s the only plan DIRECTV Stream offers with that channel. After the free trial is up, you’ll get your first month for $110, rather than the normal $135/month price.
Other ways to stream Costa Rica vs. Paraguay:
If you’re planning on watching more than one match in what remains of the Copa America, it makes more sense to stream today’s game without taking advantage of a free trial at all since there are 12 days left. You won’t get any days for free, but you will save a few bucks.
Sling TV’s Blue plan includes FOX and FS1, but tonight’s game on FS2 can only be streamed on Sling with the Blue + Sports Extra add-on that costs an additional $11/month.
Right now, you can get your first month of Sling Blue for 50% off. Instead of $45, you’ll pay $22.50 — and all you’ll need is one month of Sling to watch the entire tournament through the July 14 final match.
Where is Costa Rica vs. Paraguay being played?
