Friendlies: Peru edges out Paraguay, Ecuador and Venezuela draw

Two first-half goals from each side led to a 1-1 draw between Ecuador and Venezuela on Thursday night.

Mikel Villanueva's own goal in the 29th minute accounted for the hosts' only tally of the night.

Junior Moreno fired home a right-footed shot from the centre of the box from a Arquímedes Figuera assist before the break to send the teams to the dressing room level at half-time.

Venezuela's Figuera was sent off in the 75th minute after picking up his second yellow card. 

Peru's Paolo Guerrero scored a 75th-minute goal to give his team a 1-0 win against Paraguay in a friendly in Trujillo.

Guerrero's goal came from a free kick after Rodrigo Rojas fouled Miguel Trauco and picked up his second yellow card leaving the visitors to finish with 10 men.

Peru's next match is a friendly against Jamaica on June 13.
