SPORT NEWS: ARGENTINA 1-1 PARAGUAY MAKES ARGENTINA LAST IN THE GROUP



SPORT NEWS: ARGENTINA 1-1 PARAGUAY




Argentina captain Lionel Messi pulled his side level in the 57th minute after a handball by Paraguay's Ivan Peris which no-one on the pitch appealed for but was spotted by a VAR review.


Richard Sanchez had given Paraguay the lead in the 37th minute, firing into the bottom corner after a lung-bursting run from Miguel Almiron down the left wing.

Argentina opened their Group B campaign with a 2-0 loss to Colombia and are therefore under severe pressure to pick up a positive result in this match.

Paraguay, meanwhile, began their tournament with a 2-2 draw against Qatar. Los Guaranies are two-time winners of the Copa America and reached the semi-finals of the competition in 2015.
