BUENOS AIRES (Reuters) - Adriano's first goal for two years could not keep Atletico Paranaense in the Libertadores Cup on Tuesday as the Brazilian side went down 2-1 to The Strongest in the rarefied air of La Paz.

The former Inter Milan and Brazil striker, trying to revive his career at the Curitiba club, equalised in first half stoppage time after team mate Manoel's own goal had put the Bolivians ahead in the 38th minute.
