A win's a win?
After sleepwalking through most of the first half, Les Rouges finally came alive in the 2nd half to beat Peru as Jonathan David ended his international drought.
Some more Mickey Mouse officiating from the Guatemalan crew as a blatant head butt against Johnston by Lopez (¡qué pendejo!) was missed not only the field but somehow by the VAR squad. Thankfully they woke up when Schaffelburg was later tagged by a bad studs-up follow through, and Peru played most of the half with 10.
Oluwaseyi was impressive - he's got good pace and was getting into the right positions; I felt he was unlucky not to score on a breakaway. Another young guy with lots of promise to keep an eye on. Sure the naysayers and Fox Sports talking heads will claim that Peru gave up after David's goal, but there were a number of chances to increase the score that went begging. Looking forward to the game against Chile.
