Yoshimar Yotún was at Jorge Chavez airport to travel to the city of Cusco where he will face Cienciano with Sporting Cristal for a new day of Liga 1. The steering wheel was consulted by the new friendly of the Peruvian national team against New Zealand and replied that they will take advantage of it, as it is probably the only match before the repechage.
It will not be the first time that Peru will play against the 'Kiwis', because it did so in the international repechage for the Russia 2018 World Cup. On that occasion, the 'bicolor' drew without goals as a visitor and at the National Stadium closed its qualification with a 2-0 win. Jefferson Farfan and Christian Ramos scored the goals of the engagement.
“We have already faced them in the repechage (last) and now it will be a team that will bring us a lot,” said Yotún for the América Deportes cameras. 'Yoshi' was the starter in both momentous matches, which took place four years ago.
“The important thing is that it serves us, we can raise what the 'teacher' wants and that will be important,” he added. In addition, the midfielder 'celeste' hinted that it is most likely the only match before the match with Arab Emirates or Australia. “We will have to take advantage of it, because I think it will be the only match for the repechage.”
