Paraguay braced for intense World Cup qualifier with Argentina

Asuncion, Nov 14 (UNI) Paraguay must be willing to suffer to have any chance of beating Argentina in their FIFA World Cup qualifier on Thursday, according to head coach Gustavo Alfaro.
Paraguay is unbeaten since Alfaro replaced Daniel Garnero in August, but the 62-year-old manager warned his players would face a different type of challenge at Estadio Defensores del Chaco in Asuncion.
"Argentina is like water: If you have cracks in your wall, they will find them and cause damage," Alfaro told reporters.
