Bryan Reyna was the main novelty in the Peruvian national team against El Salvador, and he did not disappoint. He played the entire match and rounded off his performance with a great goal in the second half of the game held at Audi Field Stadium in the United States.
After the match, coach Juan Reynoso highlighted Bryan Reyna's performance on the field, while Carlos Zambrano was happy with his debut goal. The Boca Juniors defender sent some advice to the Cantolao midfielder.
"Today we have a joy, we have taken advantage of Bryan who comes from Cantolao, also, I am very happy. Just support him, take him step by step so that he doesn't get confused because this is just the beginning," he said in a press conference.
"I'm glad that more promising Peruvian footballers have been incorporated. We have needed this for a long time. With time, they will integrate better. The team is a family and what we want most is for them to grow because we have a relatively older base. We hope they help us in the next qualifiers and that more teammates from the Peruvian league come out and move to Europe or other leagues where there is a different level of competition," Zambrano added about the new additions to the Peruvian national team roster.
