LA PAZ (Reuters) - Argentina's San Lorenzo were pelted with objects by rival fans and needed protection from police at halftime of their 1-0 loss to Bolivar in their Libertadores Cup semi-final second leg on Wednesday, yet still advanced to the final for the first time.

The Argentine side had held a comfortable 5-0 advantage from last week's first leg and sat back to defend in two lines of four, 3,600 metres up on Bolivia's Andean plateau.
