The Peruvian national team achieved the goal in the end, but in the process at some point we were at the bottom of the standings of the South American Qualifiers heading to Qatar 2022. Those led by Ricardo Gareca won fifth place that allows them to play the repechage for a place in the world cup. However, it added more defeats than victories and here we leave you the numbers of the 'white and red' throughout the process.
In total there were 18 dates, nine home games and the same on the road. Those led by Ricardo Gareca had seven wins, three draws and eight losses. At home there were four wins, two draws and three defeats, while on the road there were three wins, one draw and five defeats. The most historic victory away from home in this Conmebol tournament was against Colombia in Barranquilla with a single goal from Edison Flores.
In addition, another contradictory number is that the 'bicolor' received more goals than she scored. Pedro Gallese was defeated 22 times, while 19 goals were scored and the top scorer was Christian Cueva with five goals. Then there are Gianluca Lapadula and André Carrillo with three goals; Edison Flores, Renato Tapia and Sergio Peña with two goals; Yoshimar Yotún and Luis Advíncula with one goal each.
