Palmeiras trio involved as Paraguay beat Bolivia, Gómez and Maurício start, Sosa comes on | OneFootball

Gustavo Gómez and Maurício started Paraguay’s win over Bolivia, with Ramón Sosa coming on in the second half. The national team’s latest international window features three Palmeiras players, and is the first since the World Cup in which the side eliminated Germany.

According to Nosso Palestra, Gómez and Maurício both played more than 60 minutes and are likely to feature regularly in Paraguay’s new cycle. Sosa replaced the Palmeiras attacker and logged around 30 minutes.

Paraguay still face Singapore and Colombia during this window.

Palmeiras have eight call-ups across September and October. Ramón Sosa, Maurício and Gustavo Gómez are with Paraguay, Jhon Arias has joined Colombia, Piquerez and Emiliano are with Uruguay, and Agustín Giay and Flaco López are with Argentina.

This international break will run from late September into early October, leaving the coaching staff without key players for just over two weeks. Assistant João Martins has said the pause will be used for physical and mental recovery, while acknowledging the challenge of working without the full group.
