The Argentine press also closely followed the duel between Peru and Chile, so during the broadcast of the match, journalists and commentators from that country did not hesitate to question the 'Cabezón's strategy.
"I know that Peru's start in the Qualifiers in terms of the fixture is very difficult, but Reynoso will be pointed out for the attitude, for the stance, the Peruvian national team barely competed," said the commentator.
"In tension, in ecstasy, that's how this very special victory for Chile could be titled. First, because there's a classic and a rival that you always want to beat. Then, because Chile needed to settle in at the beginning after losing to Uruguay and drawing with Colombia," added the sports commentator.
"It was suffered, but it was deserved, a 2-0 that took a while to arrive but appeared to generate justice at the Monumental in Santiago. Peru did not shoot at the goal throughout the match and Chile struggled to take what they deserved," he concluded.
