Peruvian national team begins training for the double date of the Russia 2018 Qualifiers

The team led by Ricardo Gareca is solely focused on winning against Argentina, who will not have Lionel Messi. Aldo Corzo and Joel Sánchez expressed their thoughts on the matter.

"I have had the opportunity to watch Argentina's national team play with and without Messi, and sometimes when he is not there, they struggle a lot in attack," said Joel Sánchez, midfielder of the Peruvian national team.

Aldo Corzo, the Peruvian national team's defender, commented that while it is impressive to play against the best player in the world, Lionel Messi, they are facing a team, not just a player, and the goal is to beat them.
