'Blanquirroja' not considered favorites against the New Zealand national team despite their position in the FIFA ranking.

The players affirm that they have a lot of enthusiasm to qualify for the World Cup and for that reason, they are focused on preparing to achieve victory in the playoff matches.

The second session of the national team already has the presence of Aldo Cáceda, who worked alongside his teammates. Alberto Rodríguez and Andy Polo did different types of exercises, while the rest were trained in defense.

Meanwhile, Ricardo Gareca closely analyzes the situation of each selected player, who received audiovisual material about the opponent.

On the other hand, Reinaldo Rueda, Flamengo's coach, came to the defense of Paolo Guerrero after the criticism the player has received in Brazil.

The coach dismissed that the 'Predator' refuses to play for his club to recover from his injury and participate in the playoff matches against New Zealand.

Finally, Raúl Ruidíaz surprised his Monarcas Morelia teammates after showing up with a curious look in training. The Peruvian player had platinum hair, arousing curiosity on the social media of the Mexican club.
