This is how Peru lost to Chile this Tuesday. It was 2-0 in a match where the Bicolor came out to prevent the southerners from scoring against us. And when you play not to lose, you usually end up losing, and ugly.
With a system with Andy Polo on the left, when he always plays on the right and does not have the ability to use the left-handed profile. With AdvÃncula wasted as a winger on the right because he never got a clear ball. And Paolo very isolated, Peru suffered in Santiago against a Chile that didn’t have much, but it was enough to take advantage.
This is how we saw the national cast that went out to the Monumental of Santiago, where more than two thousand Peruvians cheered them on, but left disappointed by a poor performance.
Again savior in several plays, but without fault in the goals. He still has to improve his long serves.
His job is to defend, but he did not win any duels against Ben Brereton. He was accurate in some clearances and crosses. He never attacked and was far from Luis AdvÃncula in that intention.
The best of the defense, rejecting everything. The goals came without him on the field.
It was not difficult to clear, but it was difficult for him to close the crosses.
His left foot no longer has the quality it used to and he missed many exit passes.
A lot of physical display, but little play with the ball. He lost a lot of balls.
The one who finds it most difficult when Peru comes out to defend. He wasn’t very precise.
Another very physical player but who could do little with the ball.
He never received a clear ball for his speed. Wasted as an attacker.
Poorly profiled, without overflow. The worst again. He only gave backward passes.
Without good company, there is no point in fighting divisions. They controlled it well.
M. López (4) He joined, but never established himself as either a winger or a winger. He scored the own goal.
W. Cartagena (5) It gave air to the brand, but Peru was already surpassed throughout the midfield.
A. Carrillo (6) The most vertical of the team. In a couple of plays he showed that attacking is his thing and caused a goal play.
A. SantamarÃa (4) He came on due to Zambrano’s injury and had a couple of cuts, but failed in the second goal.
B. Reyna (5) Another player made to attack.
