Paraguayan Players in International Leagues

There is less and less time left for the second round of the South American Qualifiers, and what matters now is the activity of Paraguayan players abroad.

The most comforting case is that of Miguel Almirón, who started as a starter for the second time this season for Newcastle United, in yesterday's 1-1 away draw against Wolverhampton.

Miggy has made five appearances in the English Premier League, but by coach Steve Bruce's decision, he was an option on the bench for the Magpies.

In TURKEY. Striker Adam Bareiro started for Alanyaspor, who defeated Fatih 2-0 at home in the sixth round of the Turkish Super League. The "Zorrito" played until the 59th minute in his team, which is the leader of the tournament with 16 points, two more than Fenerbahçe.

In QATAR. Forward Hernán Pérez started and played the full 90 minutes for Al-Ahli Doha, which suffered a home defeat of 1-7 against Al-Sadd, in the fifth match of the Qatar Stars League.

With this result, their opponent surpassed them by one point in the standings and took the lead in the tournament.
