Peru lost with Canada and it is very difficult against Argentina :: Olé

Peru He deserved more, but among the defects he had at the time of defining, the great afternoon and the childish expulsion of Miguel Araujo (a hit after a late arrival that the referee ended up charging at the request of the VAR), they lost 1-0 against Canada and extremely complicated their chances of continuing in this Copa América: last in the group with a point, must beat the Argentine National Team on Saturday at 9 p.m. in Miami to dream of, at least, second place.

A panorama that, of course, was not the one dreamed of by a Jorge Fossati who suffered his first defeat since taking office (three wins and two draws this year) nor the one that was expected due to the development of the game: with those five midfielders, who had the support of a line of three in the background, The Peruvians put good pressure on the Canadians, they played for a long time in the rival field and had chances to open the scoring.. The tandem Cartagena-Quispe In the center of the midfield he stole, made play and activated a move Flowers and even Lapadula which this time was not entirely good.

TO Canada It was difficult for him to find the ball and he did not show the same positive feelings as last week, when at times he complicated Argentina. This time, neither Alphonso Daviesnot even #9 larinneither Davidthe scorer of the goal, stood out: the one who supported the North American team in the game and prevented the tie in the final attacks was the archer Crepeauwho made a couple of very good saves and even quickly assisted the linesman who fainted. But the one who got them into the hot Kansas afternoon was Araujo, with that red: With 10 men, things got complicated for Peru, they lost the ball and lacked people to mark on the counterattack that led to the goal that made the difference.

And that practically sentences the South Americans: The only result of their equation is to beat none other than Scaloneta and wait…
