The Peruvian national team beat Paraguay 2-0 on the last date of the Qatar 2022 Qualifiers and with this result they won the quota of the repechage where they will face the winner of the match between Australia and the Arab Emirates. Pedro Gallese, captain of the 'bicolor', is aware that there is a lack of commitment to be in the World Cup.
“First excited, proud of the whole team, to thank all the fans who always support us, we are one step away from returning to the World Cup”, were his first statements at the level of the National Stadium.
The 'Octopus' referred to the development of Peru vs. Paraguay. “The truth is that the defense behaved very well, it was the nerves that always exist, these games always have this kind of nerves, but we matched it well, we hit when we had to and we endured the game.”
The goalkeeper of the national team highlighted the role of Alexander Callens and Carlos Zambrano. “They, who are also waiting, are actually a great team, a great group and they deserve to go to the world championship.”
