With this victory, the national team sealed their passport for the World Cup that will be played next year in Australia and New Zealand, from July 20 to August 20. Tomorrow the final of the Copa América will be played, between Brazil and Columbia.
In a game to remember and with an unstoppable Yamila Rodríguez, who with her two goals became the tournament’s top scorer, the Argentine women’s team prevailed in the face of adversity by going down on the scoreboard 39 minutes into the first half, when at the exit of a corner kick against, Romina Fernández had the misfortune to push the ball into the goal defended by Vanina Correa.
However, the national team did not lower their arms and started the complement with another impetus, beyond the disadvantage on the scoreboard.
With the team focused on attack, Paraguay was able to close the match, but their forwards were not fine in the final meters. The game began to have more interruptions than fair play, which benefited the Guaraní team during much of the contest against the nervousness of the Argentines.
However, 33 minutes into the second half, a long shot from the bottom found Yamila Rodríguez hand in hand with the last defender and with a change of speed she was in front of goalkeeper Alicia Bobadilla to tie the game.
From then on everything was from Argentina. At 45 minutes, an exquisite free kick by Florencia Bon Segundo put Albiceleste ahead on the scoreboard to start dreaming of the World Cup.
With the time expired and a few minutes added, Yamila Rodríguez appeared in an action similar to that of the first goal to avoid Bobadilla and crown the final 3-1 with which Argentina, led by Germán Portanova, won the ticket to the World Cup to be played in 2023 in Australia and New Zealand.
