Argentina welcomed back six-time Ballon d'Or winner Lionel Messi to their starting line-up while star forward Neymar missed out for Brazil.
Brazil remain top of the qualifying group, six points clear of Argentina, who took their unbeaten run to 27 matches. Argentina came alive in the last five minutes of the half as Rodrigo de Paul managed the hosts' first shot on target, although Alisson Becker dealt with it comfortably in the Brazil goal.
