The Peruvian national team achieved the objective of securing the playoffs after defeating Paraguay (2-0) on the final matchday of the Qatar 2022 qualifiers. In this regard, 'Conejo' Miguel Rebosio indicated who were the key individuals from the administrative aspect. He also referred to the poor results of the Peruvian teams in international tournaments.
The former Peruvian national team player declared on the program "Pitazo final" of Radio Ovación why Peruvian clubs did not earn a single point in this first matchday. "We know that the local tournament is not among the best and Peruvians have faced the most difficult part of South American football. The results that have occurred in international tournaments are a result of work that does not bear fruit or that becomes even more complicated," he began.

The 'Conejo' also mentioned that it is very important for each team to have a sports psychologist. He explained that this specialist is essential to provide support to the player when criticisms arise or when they face problems of any kind.
Finally, Rebosio expressed the reason for the Peruvian national team's good results in the qualifying process. "Peruvians are very demanding and sometimes do not allow processes to finish, and I believe that the best thing that happened to the national team was the duo Oblitas-Gareca, despite the poor results at the beginning of the qualifying campaign. There was support from the leaders and Juan Carlos Oblitas, and thus seven years passed," he emphasized.
When will the Peruvian national team play the playoffs?
On the other hand, the Peruvian national team will play against Australia or the United Arab Emirates in the playoffs for the Qatar 2022 World Cup. This match will take place on Monday, June 13th at 1:00 p.m. (Peruvian time) in the city of Doha.
