Events

Match Events

  • 0' The game is set. Australia kicks off things out of here…
  • 5' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Paolo Hurtado suffering a number of foals already.
  • 10' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Mile Jedinak.
  • 15' It looks surprising Australia does not make any changes. Wilder Cartagena has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 18' Andre Carrillo puts Peru on the lead.
  • 23' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Aziz Behich made 436 appearances and scored 8 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 28' The travelling Peru supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 33' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 0 times this season with winning -% of all matches.
  • 38' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 43' Australia started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 43.
  • 45' A meaty challenge results in booking for Yoshimar Yotun on 45.
  • 46' Pedro Aquino is replacing Yoshimar Yotun for the Peru side.
  • 50' GOAL! Paolo Guerrero scores on 50. Assisted by Christian Cueva
  • 53' It is a substitution in Australia team. Tomi Juric is replaced by Tim Cahill on 53 minute.
  • 58' Australia manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Daniel Arzani is hanging Robbie Kruse on the field on 58 minute.
  • 60' It’s a booking for Australia player. Daniel Arzani gets a Yellow card.
  • 63' Another substitution for Peru to replace Renato Tapia by Paolo Hurtado on 63 minute.
  • 66' Australia receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 66.
  • 71' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 71 minutes.
  • 72' The whistle greets Tom Rogic as he departs to be replaced by Jackson Irvine.
  • 77' It’s high time Ricardo Gareca made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 79' Paolo Hurtado is having his name booked by the referee on 79.
  • 79' The whistle greets Andre Carrillo as he departs to be replaced by Wilder Cartagena.
  • 84' Peru is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 88' It’s a booking for Australia player. Mark Milligan gets a Yellow card.
  • With this win, Peru is likely to improve its situation in the overall team standings.
