Paraguay 3-0 Chile

Paraguay arrived in Santiago looking for a positive result in their quest to reach a spot in the 2018 World Cup, well they accomplished their goal and more as they dominated a Chile team that never found their footing.

Chile started the game on the wrong foot as Arturo Vidal scored an own goal in the 24^th minute of the first half. It seemed as though Chile would tie the ballgame, but then Victor Caceres scored the second goal for Paraguay 10 minutes into the second half. Richard Ortiz would score the last goal of the game in the 92^nd minute and sealed the victory for Paraguay, their first in Chile since 2007. Almiron played 78 minutes in the game before being subbed out by Carlos Rolon.
