Overview
- Peru fell 2-1 to Chile in Sochi despite a man advantage after Iván Román was sent off and Alex Valera scored from the penalty spot.
- Chile’s winner followed Jairo Concha losing the ball to Darío Osorio, who finished to seal the result.
- Ex-international Reimond Manco blasted Concha’s performance, saying he lacks the personality required and declaring, “If you don’t assume, you are not for the national team.”
- Manco urged an end to extended ‘credits’ for underperformers and challenged Concha to replicate his Universitario form with Peru.
- Juan Jayo also judged Concha below expectations and said coach Manuel Barreto will draw his conclusions, even as Sofascore gave the midfielder a 7.0 rating.
