The action around CONMEBOL on TUE 15 NOV 2016 resulted in plenty of goals, as two more teams are now falling off the pace.

• Bolivia 01-00 Paraguay: Juan Gabriel VALVERDE’s second yellow on the hour mark could not stop la Verde, as the match was decided on an own goal by Paraguay’s Gustavo GÓMEZ. The Guaraníes saw their hopes of reaching Russia severely dented with the loss.
• Ecuador 03-00 Venezuela: La Tri return to third place with a convincing win in Quito.
• Argentina 03-00 Colombia: Lionel MESSI’s free kick ten minutes in found net off the underside of the bar. Lucas PRATTO and Ángel DI MARIA also scored as the Albiceleste overtake Colombia for fifth.
• Chile 03-01 Uruguay: Eduardo VARGAS’s goal in first half stoppage time neutralised the opener by Uruguay’s Edinson CAVANI. After the interval, Alexis SÁNCHEZ scored twice to move la Roja into fourth place.
