Aguero volley saves Argentina from Copa upset

Substitute striker Sergio Aguero saved Argentina's blushes with a 77th minute equaliser for a 1-1 draw against Bolivia in their Copa America opener on Friday.



Bolivia weathered a first-half storm at the Ciudad de La Plata stadium and shocked Argentina two minutes into the second half when Jhasmany Campos hit a corner low to the near post where striker Edivaldo Rojas back-heeled it past goalkeeper Sergio Romero.

With the game heading into the closing stages, Argentina equalised when defender Nicolas Burdisso chested down a cross from Marcos Rojo and Aguero volleyed home.
