Some months have passed since the meeting between the Peruvian national team and Australia for the repechage towards the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, in which the Bicolor lost on penalties. However, this defeat continues to be talked about among the fans and the national press.
During an interview with the Trome newspaper, sports commentator 'Paco' Bazán revealed that a person who was in the team's concentration hotel told him that the atmosphere was not appropriate.
"A person who was there told me: 'The night before the match against Australia, there was a gathering in the hotel lobby'", he said.

In addition, he blamed Ricardo Gareca for allowing a large number of people to travel on Peru's plane to the city of Doha.
"He is the main responsible for what happened in Doha. He was responsible for those who were on that plane. What was a ceviche maker, Trauco's barber, or Cueva's friend doing? All of that is the coach's responsibility", he stated.
'Paco' Bazán reveals that a football player threatened him
On the other hand, 'Paco' Bazán mentioned that a player from the Peruvian national team called him on the phone to threaten him for his comments.
"It was a player who is not worth mentioning their name. He told me that he had done a lot for our country and asked me, 'What are you doing for the homeland?'. I'm not interested in being in any WhatsApp group to find out or have exclusive news", he expressed.
