Peru faces Argentina this Saturday (7:00 pm) in a key match for its aspirations of qualifying for the quarterfinals of the Copa América.
Jorge Fossati prepares his team for the great challenge of facing the world champion team, although with the incentive that he will not have Lionel Messi due to injury and will put in a clearly alternative formation, no less dangerous.
In the last practice, the coach of the Blanquirroja tried alternatives to face this difficult match, with a 3-5-2 formation.
Pedro Gallese will remain a permanent fixture in goal national. The defensive line had three players in this test with Carlos Zambrano, Alexander Callens and Aldo Corzo as the new additions, on the right side.
In the lanes were Andy Polo on the right and Marcos López on the lefteven though Luis Advíncula was in practice with the team.
In the center Wilder Cartagena and on his interior sides Sergio Peña was located on the right and Edison Flores a little further back than what he had been showing in previous games as a left interior.
In the attack, Fossati placed Gianluca Lapadula and Bryan Reyna, as the most important innovation of the formation, relegating Piero Quispeone of the regular starters in previous matches.
We have to wait for Friday afternoon’s training session to have more certainties, such as whether Luis Advíncula will be included in the starting 11 after his injury in the first match and what will happen with the talented Pumas player.
