The Argentine national team signed this Tuesday an indisputable victory against Peru by 0-2 in a very comfortable match for the Albiceleste, so much so that this time Messi did not have to come to the rescue and was worth it with the speed on the left wing and the goals of Nicolás González and Lautaro Martínez to add the three points.

With this victory, Argentina already accumulates 10 points at the end of the fourth day of the South American qualifiers for Qatar 2022, while Peru closes one of the poorest starts in the qualifying phase with a single point out of twelve possible.

For its part, Brazil he thrashed again, this time to Uruguay. A goal from Arthur and another from Richarlison, both in the first half, were enough for the Canarinha team to add another three points in the South American qualifiers.

In this way, the current champion of America won once more in Montevideo, as he did on the way to South Africa 2010 and Russia 2018. In addition, those led by Adenor Leonardo Bachi, ‘Tite’, were once again a stone in the Óscar Washington Tabárez’s shoe, who since he began his second cycle at the helm of La Celeste, in 2007, could never beat them.

The surprise of the day came in Ecuador, where the local team endorsed a humiliating thrashing by 6-1 to a Colombia unknown. Central defender Robert Arboleda, at 7 and 91 minutes; the attacker Angel Mena, at 9; scorer Michael Estrada, at 32; central defender Javier Arreaga, at 39, and forward Gonzalo Plata, at 78, scored the Ecuadorian win. For his part, midfielder James Rodríguez discounted a penalty at 45 + 1.

The Ecuadorian team, led by Argentine Gustavo Alfaro, came to 9 points, while the Colombian, guided by the Portuguese Carlos Queiroz, who with this result was left on the tightrope, remains partially seventh with 4 integers.
