A few hours before a new edition of the 'Pacific Classic', the Peruvian National Team has two doubts to define its starting eleven against Chile. Sergio Peña or Gabriel Costa? and Miguel Trauco or Marcos López?
Also, from Chile, former 'Roja' striker Iván Zamorano referred to the classic match and stated that the weak point of the Peruvian National Team is their defense's ball distribution.
"There are situations that I believe have happened in the last matches against Peru, which is taking the ball away from them. Peruvians feel very comfortable with the ball, so if we have the opportunity to take the ball away from them in important spaces to reach the goal, we have a great chance of winning," Zamorano said.
Remember that Anderson Santamaría failed when he tried to distribute the ball and caused Brazil's first goal in the last match.
"They have many problems in playing out from the back. When Peruvians pass the difficult midfield zone, they can do a lot of damage because they have good technique and good players. We must pressure them in the defense's ball distribution," he concluded.
When is the Peru vs Chile match?
The Peruvian National Team will host Chile on October 7th at 8:00 PM (Peruvian time) at the National Stadium. The match will be broadcasted on Movistar Deportes and Latina TV, and on RPP's radio platform.
In the first leg, Chile won 2-0.
