South America's World Cup Qualifying Remains As Chaotic As Ever

Plenty of norms have been shattered in recent months, but if there's one constant everyone can count on, it's the chaos brought on by South America's World Cup qualifying.

The first two match days ensured that was the case. Half of the 12 matches involved some level of late drama, with goals in the 79th minute or later changing the balance of results. Only three were games whose results were hardly ever in the balance, and already there are some early themes developing.

As it stands, Brazil and Argentina top the table with six points apiece, followed by Colombia and Paraguay, who have four apiece.
