LIVE: Paraguay vs Jamaica

  • Few of you will need reminding of Paraguay's exploits in their Copa opener versus Argentina, but I'm going to anyway! Despite falling two goals down, Ramon Diaz's men showed admirable spirit to battle back and secure a 2-2 draw. Nelson Haedo Valdez delighted with a 25-yard stunner, before Lucas Barrios' 90th-minute equaliser after coming off the bench left Gerardo Martino's men puzzled at what had just befallen them. Nevertheless, things will be much different for Ramon Diaz's men tonight, as it is they who will be under pressure to succeed, going into the game as strong favourites.
