ASUNCION, May 28 (Reuters) - Paraguay have opted for experience in attack in their bid to reach a second successive Copa America final next month and overcome the disappointment of missing last year's World Cup in Brazil.
Roque Santa Cruz, Nelson Haedo Valdez and Lucas Barrios -- all veterans of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa and 2011 Copa America -- were named on Thursday in coach Ramon Diaz's 23-man squad for the tournament in Chile starting on June 11.
Paraguay, who lost the 2011 final 3-0 to Uruguay in Buenos Aires, open their Group B campaign against Argentina and also face the title holders and Jamaica.
