The Chilean press resigns itself to the Qatar 2022 World Cup after a 2-0 defeat against the Peruvian National Team at the National Stadium in Lima.
Chile did not have a good time on their visit to Lima, as they continued with their bad streak in the Qatar 2022 Qualifiers. The team led by Martín Lasarte lost 2-0 against Peru and are far from securing a spot in the next World Cup. Chilean media choose to "buy TVs" because in this 'Pacific Classic' they needed to add three points.
One of the media outlets in Chile that did not hold back against their national team was "Radio Cooperativa", who during the match mentioned that it is better to "buy TVs" due to the poor performance they have shown throughout the Qualifiers.
"Buy TVs... We couldn't add points. Fifth defeat in the qualifiers, there is little margin to recover ground. Qualification becomes an uphill battle. La Roja is suffering."
This is what you can hear in the Chilean narration after Peru's 2-0 victory over Chile.
The Chilean National Team remains in eighth position in the table, but they are now four points behind the Peruvian National Team, who accumulated 11 points. They are also seven units away from securing a place in the playoff zone.
It is important to remember that the only victory of the Chilean National Team was in Santiago against Peru, so they had high hopes of getting back on track in their visit to Lima, but they will ultimately return home empty-handed.
