The national team experienced a special duel against the 'red' at AT&T Stadium in Texas, as not only was the “Pacific Classic” in dispute, but also a separate rivalry as it was Ricardo Gareca at the bank 'mapochos' after a seven and a half year stay in the field 'inca'.
But everything that was mentioned was put aside from the first whistle. Alexis Sanchez had the clearest opportunity of a first half favourable to “the southerners” even though they failed to score. However, in the second half, the national team took control of the midfield with the imposing Sergio Pena and defended himself with the solidity of Carlos ZambranoMiguel Araujo and Alexander Callens.
Gianluca Lapadula He had two clear chances to score, although he was not confident against Claudio Bravowho established himself as one of the strong points of his team. In the end, the two teams shared the points.
The diagram of Jorge Fossati The 3-5-2 would remain as he proposed throughout his career and that allowed him to become national champion with the Universitario last year. In this line, Pedro Gallese It is a fixed one to stand under the three sticks of the Peruvian team.
The defensive line would be composed of the three players who made their debuts in Copa America 2024: Miguel Araújo on the right, Carlos Zambrano as a libero, and Alexandre Callens left. 'Toad' He raised the alarm when he was replaced against Chile in the 84th minute due to a muscle problem, but it was revealed that it was a cramp which would not prevent him from being against Canada.
On the wingers side, there is one point to consider. Andy Polo he would remain on the right wing; although Luis Advinculalocated near the DT on the left in front of the 'red'would not be confirmed as part of the starting eleven. The reason for this is that he was injured in the previous duel in the 35th minute due to an Achilles tendon problem, as revealed by the player himself in the mixed zone. His replacement was Marcos Lopez.
However, Fossati Lurachi admitted that there has been a notable improvement and that his presence is not excluded.Yesterday Luis (Advíncula) was already walking normally and today we are going to see him. “Nobody is ruled out tomorrow against Canada,” he said at a press conference. In case you give him a rest, 'Marquitos' I would go from the beginning.
In the middle of the field, Wild Cartagena would remain a branded steering wheel, while Sergio Pena would retain his role as game organizer. The Swedish footballer from Malmö was one of the most notable Peru against Chile by managing the timing and having clarity in the passes. Piero Quispé He would be the third element of the midfield, ensuring both the withdrawal and the distribution of the ball.
Finally, the offensive duo of Peruvian team would be composed of Edison Flores as a second man, leaving Gianluca Lapadula as '9'. Paolo Guerrero, Joao Grimaldo, Oliver Sonne, Bryan Reyna, among others, would be waiting on the substitutes' bench.
THE Canadian Team surprised everyone and everyone in the opening match of the Copa America 2024. And although they lost 2-0 against Argentina, they knew how to cut their passing lines and complicate the game of Lionel Messi and company.
The Americans' robustness is part of coach Jesse Marsch's plan, who would send the following eleven players onto the field: Maxime Crépeau, Alistair Johnston, Moise Bombito, Derek Cornelius, Alphonso DaviesIsmael Koné, Stephen Eustaquio, Tajon Buchanan, Liam Millar, Cyle Larin and Jonathan David.
