Asuncion, Oct 16 (SocialNews.XYZ) Antonio Sanabria scored two second-half goals as Paraguay recovered from a goal down to secure a 2-1 home victory over Venezuela in their World Cup qualifier.
Jon Aramburu gave the visitors the lead in the 25th minute at Estadio Defensores del Chaco with a low finish after Yeferson Soteldo's pass.

Torino forward Sanabria doubled the lead with a close-range header 16 minutes from time.
Paraguay now have 13 points from 10 qualifiers, two more than Venezuela.
