The Bolivian team tried to wake up in the final minutes against Chile for the Qatar 2022 Qualifiers, however, time was not enough to turn the score around. Marcelo Martins scored the discount (3-2) in favor of the highlands.

At 88 minutes, the ‘Green’ advanced their lines and almost the entire team turned to the rival area. After several attempts, Henry Vaca shot from the right and threatened Isla, then he crossed and the number ‘9’ scored the header.

It is important to mention that the match was delayed 30 minutes due to poor conditions on the pitch. The rain had generated large puddles of water, so the sports venue staff had to do cleaning work so that the match could start.

The preview of Bolivia vs. chili

‘La Roja’ comes from losing 1-2 at the 2,260 meters of altitude in Calama, the venue they chose in their territory to prepare for the match against the Bolivians. Martín Lasarte’s pupils will not have Betis goalkeeper Claudio Bravo, who was injured in the match against Argentina, and his position could be taken by Brayan Cortés who replaced him in the match against Albiceleste.

Guillermo Maripán and Sebastián Vegas are also absent from the Chilean squad due to the accumulation of yellow cards, so changes in the defensive line will be a necessity in addition to the also injured Eduardo Vargas.

For its part, the ‘Green’ team, led by Venezuelan coach César Farías, returns to the Hernando Siles stadium in La Paz, at an altitude of 3,640 meters, after the 4-1 thrashing it suffered during its visit to Venezuela the previous day. .
