All this was accompanied by a part of the song “Adiós” by the singer Sebastián Yatra. “And this hurts, I have to go, I don’t want to go, I have to go, I don’t want to leave…”says the excerpt you chose.

The ‘Orejas’, during extra time, had a great opportunity to make the difference, but his shot hit the post. Then, in the penalty shootout, he scored the fourth and last goal for the Blanquirroja.

Lapadula’s message in Qatar

Silent. This is how the Peruvian team left the concentration hotel early this Tuesday in Qatar. The players, dressed in one of the official outfits, crossed the gate one by one until they reached the bus that took the delegation to the airport. Of all of them, the only one who dared to say a few words was Gianluca Lapadula.

The ‘Bambino de los Andes’, still hurt by losing the opportunity to play in the Qatar 2022 World Cup, addressed the fans who came to Doha to cheer on the match against Australia in the intercontinental playoff: “Have a good trip, guys” . To close, the ‘9’ tried to raise spirits and closed with a “up, Peru.”

Then, the delegation arrived at the local airport to begin the return to Lima, which is scheduled for the next few hours. Of course, there is a group of soccer players who must return to their respective clubs to fulfill their commitments, others will begin a vacation stage to finish their seasons and those who play in League 1 will close the Apertura.
