The player of Charleroi Sporting in Belgium, Cristian Benavente, is on vacation in Peru after a good season with his club. The popular 'kid' celebrated the news that came out yesterday about the decision of the Swiss Federal Court authorizing Paolo Guerrero to play in the World Cup with the Peruvian national team.
"It was a great joy for the whole country because he is the captain of the team. In addition, he (Guerrero) has been fighting for many years to go to the World Cup," Benavente said to RPP.
Never lost faith
Furthermore, Benavente mentioned that he waited until the last moment to be called up by Ricardo Gareca for the World Cup. "I was always waiting for that opportunity until the last day to be in the World Cup," he explained.
