Paraguay were the first to seal passage after they beat Venezuela 3-1. Chile then earned qualification with a 1-0 victory over Ecuador.
Brazil, meanwhile, blanked Colombia 3-0 to confirm their ticket to India. Brazil's win left them on top of six-team final stage league table with 10 points, followed by Chile (9 points), Paraguay (8), Colombia (4), Ecuador (1) and Venezuela (1). Each team is left with one match each to be played on Sunday.
