Christian Cueva broke Diego Godín’s waist in the Uruguay area | VIDEO

In the best moment of the national team, Christian Cueva performed with a great individual action against Diego Godín in the 23rd minute of Peru vs. Uruguay at the Centennial Stadium. The attacker left the mark of the experienced central defender to try to open the account in the Qualifying match.

Everything started with a series of attacks by the Bicolor against the goal of the ‘charrúas’. In a final test on the three posts, goalkeeper Sergio Rochet left his field to prevent the balloon from going to the corner kick, but the balloon went down the wing. Thus, Miguel Trauco quickly played with the 10 of Ricardo Gareca’s team.

Cueva controlled, although he received with his back to the goal. Immediately, Godín ran to contain the man of the Peruvian team. To get out of the pressure, Christian made a movement with his body that left the ‘Pharaoh’ in check. In this way, ‘Aladino’ was able to pass with a luxury from the strong central defender, but Ronald Araujo stopped everything.

Peru vs. Uruguay: the previous

La Blanquirroja and La Celeste play a ‘final’ that has as a prize the direct pass to the World Cup. Ricardo Gareca’s team is in fifth place with 21 points, while those led by Diego Alonso are fourth with 22 points.

The DT of the Bicolor made a change in the eleventh with respect to the one he rehearsed in Lima, before traveling to Montevideo. Thus, Carlos Zambrano replaced Christian Ramos. In more, key players like Christian Cueva or Gianluca Lapadula have a guaranteed place in the eleven.

On his side, the ‘charrúa’ squad renews its confidence in goalkeeper Sergio Rochet, who has replaced the experienced Fernando Mulsera. On offense, Luis Suárez, despite being irregular at his club, will accompany one of the sensations in Europe: Darwin Núñez, from Benfica.
