Pedro Gallese: “As long as there are points to fight, we can continue with the illusion”

The Peruvian team suffered a tough defeat at the hands of Argentina on Thursday night and complicated their aspirations to qualify for the World Cup. Lautaro Martínez’s solitary goal was enough for the ‘Albiceleste’ at the Monumental Stadium. After the match, goalkeeper Pedro Gallese regretted the fall.

“The idea was to add here. We knew it was going to be very difficult. We knew that Argentina has great players. We came to look for something, but unfortunately it was not possible. I think we played a good game, all in all. And you have to think about November already “, indicated the ‘Pulpo’ in Movistar Deportes.

On the other hand, Gallese made it clear that he is not ending the dream of returning to a World Cup event: “As long as there are points to fight, we can still continue with the illusion. We are playing good games, we need that extra to win. We are going to talk about that now “.

Finally, the footballer who plays in Orlando City confessed that, outside of the result, the duel on River’s court was the one he was boasting about. “I think it was a match as we expected it. Argentina was going to want to control the game, we did our thing, but unfortunately we couldn’t get a point from here “, said.

The ‘Blanquirroja’, which in November will face Bolivia and Venezuela, fell to the ninth box, with eleven units, only ahead of Venezuela, which registers seven.

Argentina, for its part, took another step towards qualifying for the World Cup. With the victory, the cast led by Lionel Messi remains second, now with twenty-five points.
