On September 5, 1993, Paraguay needed to win in Lima against a Peru at the bottom of the table with zero points, while at the same time hoping that Colombia would defeat Argentina in Buenos Aires to snatch a spot in the playoffs for the 1994 World Cup in the United States. Only the latter happened. Almost thirty years later, a mischievous God has reversed the roles.
Whoever plays for honor is because they have already lost it more than enough. That Peruvian National Team, from the winter of 1993, had done too many merits to strengthen national honor: zero points and ten goals against in five matches of the South American Qualifiers for the 1994 World Cup.
