CONMEBOL World Cup Qualifying wrap: Argentina and Colombia see red, Chile and Peru nab wins
It was an eventful day down in South America for World Cup Qualifying. Here’s what happened if you missed it.
Bolivia 1 - 1 Venezuela
Juan Arango scored to put Venezuela in the lead just before the hour mark, but the Bolivians scratched out a draw by virtue of Jhasmani Campos’ 86th minute equalizer, a powerful header past goalkeeper Renny Vega off a corner kick.
Eduardo Vargas and Arturo Vidal both scored wonderful goals for Chile, who came into Paraguay and left with a win. Roque Santa Cruz made things a bit more interesting with an 87th minute goal to make it a one goal game, but the Chileans claimed all three points.
Peru 1 - 0 Ecuador
Claudio Pizarro scored the only goal for Peru, as they defended home ground and defeated Ecuador. This was a testy match, with seven yellow cards handed out between the two teams.
