La Peruvian national team is living days of uncertainty, after the non-continuity of Ricardo Gareca as head coach. Last Friday 15th, the Peruvian Football Federation (FPF) confirmed what the national media and journalists had previously announced: the 'Tigre' will not continue leading the national team.
After the news, several players from the Blanquirroja did not miss the moment and spoke out to say goodbye to the now former coach. One of them was Carlos Zambrano, who reflected on what it meant to be under the orders of the 64-year-old Argentine strategist.

"Transmitting knowledge is not only about saying what you know, but inspiring new attitudes! Thank you, Ricardo," wrote the Boca Juniors player on his social media. Undoubtedly, 'Tigre' Gareca has left a good mark on his players during this seven-year process as Peru's head coach.
