Bolivia used their home advantage to claim another big scalp in South American World Cup qualifying as they beat Brazil 2-1 in La Paz. Back in April, Bolivia thrashed Argentina 6-1 as Diego Maradona's team could not cope with the 3,600 meters altitude, and have now ended Brazil's 11-game winning streak.
