VIDEO. Chris Wood is New Zealand's main goal threat, the rival of the Peruvian National Team in the play-off for Russia 2018. That's why Ricardo Gareca must take into account what the Burnley forward has done in recent years to avoid setbacks in both legs.
Amidst the expectation of the duel with the Peruvian National Team, Chris Wood is compared to Paolo Guerrero. That's why New Zealand's top scorer is seen as the main "headache" for Alberto Rodríguez, Christian Ramos, Miguel Trauco, and Aldo Corzo.
Despite his young age, Chris Wood has had a career in English football for a good while. In 2009, he arrived at West Bromwich Albion and won the Third Division of England and the Championship with Leicester City in the Second Division of England.
But the best moment in the career of New Zealand's leading scorer was at Leeds United, where he scored 46 goals in 88 appearances. A number that can't be overlooked in the competitive English football. The defense of the Peruvian National Team must take into account his goal scoring effectiveness.
The freshest memory of Chris Wood was in the 2017 Confederations Cup with New Zealand, where he put Mexico in trouble with a great goal in the group stage. Undoubtedly, the Peruvian National Team should not underestimate at all what the "All Whites" offer during the play-off for Russia 2018.
