Argentina facing Peru within Hard Rock Stadium (Miami) a match marked by casualties and turnovers. There is qualification for the quarterfinals and first place is guaranteed Lionel Scaloni He introduced many new things to the eleven. To highlight the absence of leo messi with physical problems, who watched the game from the bench. Exactly on the bench the coach cannot sit, sanctioned because in the half hour of the last match Argentina took more minutes than required in the locker room and that in the Copa América this implies a penalty for the coach. Happened to Gareca (Chile) and Batista (Venezuela). For their part, the Peruvians sought to accelerate their long-range options in the passing phase.
In the first half, Argentina monopolized the ball against Peru, who despite needing to win did not worry about the goal Emi Martinez. The three-time world champion team was also not very inspired, having only tried twice Welsh.
Otamendi are centimeters away from breaking parity at a center Maria saidcaptain in the absence of Messi, but he was unable to hit the ball with his head when he was in the goal mouth and beat his defenders above. Paredes also attempted a set piece, went over the bar and forced the Peru goalkeeper to fly to avoid the target. And the best opportunity comes with a great collective action where Montiel He reached the baseline, placed a back pass at the height of the penalty spot and Lo Celso At first he ended up in the cross, allowing Gallese to kick it out. On the rebound Garnacho tried to put it in the corner without success.
