Peruvian National Team prepares for first leg of playoffs against New Zealand

The Peruvian National Team is getting ready to play the first leg of the playoffs against New Zealand in Wellington, a city known for having the strongest winds in the world, as shown in the following videos.

It happens that New Zealand is surrounded by sea. And its capital, Wellington, where the match will be played, is located between the two islands that make up this country. This geographical location makes it have winds between 60 and 74 kilometers per hour, the strongest in the world. In Chiclayo, for example, it reaches 35 kilometers per hour.

How could this affect the Peruvian National Team?

In the preview of Peru vs. New Zealand, Liam Hyslop, director of the online newspaper Stuff, stated that the main weapon of Hudson's team is aerial play, but he agrees with the added value of knowing the trajectory of the ball in this kind of weather.

"I have seen matches at Westpac Stadium where players would kick the ball in any direction and the wind would put it into the goal. The Peruvian goalkeeper could have many problems," said the journalist.

Peru will play their first match against the All Whites at Westpac Stadium in Wellington on Friday, November 10, at 10:15 PM (Saturday 11 in New Zealand). The second match will be at the National Stadium on Wednesday, November 15, at 9:15 PM.
