Great to read that three key Peruvian players won't be released until 5 days before the playoff game. We are going to need all the help we can get!

If I was Peru I would keep some key players back home for the second leg, who can be fresh as. Im sure they could send a team to NZ who haven't had to travel around the world, and will still dick us.

This topic has been done to death a few weeks ago when I raised it first. At that time we were talking about Argentina, not Peru (same question though). However, everyone here disagreed with me, and that included people whose opinion I value as they are usually usually spot on. The comments were along the lines of that no opposition worth their salt would risk a potential banana skin by sending pretty much one team to play us here and have say half a fresh team to come in to finish us off in Lima.  As a result, I dropped this topic too.  I couldn't be arsed to start it again.
