Chile forward Sanchez fit to face Paraguay

Reuters - Monday 14 November 2011, 19:21

Chile forward Alexis Sanchez is fit to face Paraguay in their South American World Cup qualifier on Tuesday, his country's football federation said on its website.

The Barcelona player pulled out of Friday's 4-0 defeat away to Uruguay during the warm-up after Chilean media said he felt a twinge in a hamstring he injured in September.

Sanchez made his return for Barcelona two weeks ago in the Champions League match away to Viktoria Plzen after being sidelined for nearly two months.

Chile, who kicked out five players for indiscipline before the Uruguay match, have three points from three games.

Visitors Paraguay, quarter-finalists in South Africa last year and Copa America runners-up this year, have four.
