- 0' Welcome to that hosts another battle between Argentina and Paraguay.
- 5' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Argentina that had 28 games and scored 52 goals.
- 10' Paraguay are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
- 15' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 20' Both keepers have barely been tested. Argentina and Paraguay are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 25' With 0 assists to his name this season, Milton Casco is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Argentina.
- 30' Argentina is showing some good football. However, Argentina are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 32' Poor challenge from Gustavo Gomez. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
- 37' Richard Sanchez doubles the advantage! 0-1 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
- 42' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
- 43' A moment of madness from Rodrigo Rojas on 43 minutes earns him a Yellow card. Paraguay will be frustrated.
- 45' A meaty challenge results in booking for Franco Armani on 45.
- 46' Argentina ring the changes. Roberto Pereyra has done his job and it is now time for Sergio Aguero to step up.
- 51' Paraguay have won 13 goals from 13 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
- 55' The referee calls foul for Ivan Piris. He receives a Yellow card.
- 57' Lionel Messi doubles the advantage! 1-1 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
- 62' Argentina currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
- 67' The supporters are chanting for Angel di Maria. He replaces Lautaro Martinez on 67 minute.
- 72' Federico Santander makes way for Oscar Romero at the 72 minute mark. A tactical switch from Paraguay.
- 77' Oscar Romero has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 80' A meaty challenge results in booking for Nicolas Tagliafico on 80.
- 83' That is a Yellow card for Argentina. Nicolas Otamendi will be fuming at that decision.
- 87' Argentina make a change. Rodrigo de Paul trudges off to be replaced by Matias Suarez on 87 minutes.
- 90' The whistle greets Derlis Gonzalez as he departs to be replaced by Juan Marcelo Escobar.
