The 1-0 defeat to Bolivia is a thing of the past. Ricardo Gareca and his coaching staff know this very well. That's why the 'Tigre' is already planning the starting eleven against Argentina for matchday 12 of the Qatar 2022 qualifiers, this Thursday (6:30 pm). Peru makes 4 changes compared to the last starting lineup in La Paz.
In the defensive part, Jhilmar Lora will replace the injured Luis Advíncula. The other change will be the presence of Carlos Zambrano instead of Christian Ramos. Also, Miguel Trauco returns to the left flank replacing Marcos López. Finally, in the offensive part, Raziel García will replace Gabriel Costa.
The coaching staff of the Peruvian National Team waited until the last moment for Sergio Peña. However, the Peruvian midfielder showed no signs of recovery, so Christofer González was chosen instead.

To stop Messi and company, the 'Tigre' tried out this lineup: Pedro Gallese, Jhilmar Lora, Carlos Zambrano, Alexander Callens, Miguel Trauco, Pedro Aquino, Yoshimar Yotún, Christofer Gonzales, Christian Cueva, Raziel García, and Gianluca Lapadula, and will seek to make an impact in Buenos Aires.
