Carlos Bueno put Uruguay on the board with a header between two defenders in the 63rd, and Sebastian Abreu capped the comeback when he beat Bolivia keeper Carlos Arias with a short header two minutes from the end.

The draw frustrated a Bolivia side which hasn't beaten Uruguay since 1997. Since then, all three matches in La Paz have been drawn.

Uruguay has 13 points to lie in fourth place in the standings on goal difference, while Bolivia has 9 points to be eighth in the 10-team group.
