Christian Cueva and Aldo Corzo will not play against Ecuador on Tuesday. Both Peruvian soccer players, recurring in the team led by Ricardo Gareca in the qualifying round for the 2022 Qatar World Cup, saw a new yellow card on Friday in the victory against Colombia (0-1) and must serve a suspension.

Cueva, a Saudi Al-Fateh player, was booked at minute 56 at the Metropolitano stadium (Barranquilla). Months earlier, the attacking midfielder was yellow against Bolivia, on November 11, 2021.

 

According to the newspaper El Comercio of Peru, “Christian is, along with Pedro Gallese, the only footballer of the Peruvian team who played all 15 qualifying games (heading for Qatar 2022). He has five goals in the tournament and all of them helped Bicolor win. Also, assist against Colombia for another victory. That is to say, it contributed directly to 18 of the 20 points that the Blanquirroja has in the table to be in fourth place. Yes, in the World Cup zone”.

Corzo, for his part, was painted at minute 87 against Colombia, a situation that affected him immediately on the pitch. The lateral right of the Peruvian Universitario had already been announced on June 3, 2021, also against the coffee growers, in Lima.

Unlike Cueva, who is a regular starter in the Tigre Gareca team, Corzo is a substitute for Luis Advíncula. The Boca Juniors side served a suspension in the game with the coffee growers and will be back against the Tricolor.

Pedro Gallese, Alexander Callens, Carlos Zambrano, Renato Tapia, Yoshimar Yotún, Wilder Cartagena, Christofer Gonzales, Raziel García and Gabriel Costa had to take care of themselves against Colombia to be able to face Ecuador next Tuesday.

Those nine footballers have a yellow card on them and will continue to be announced for the game on the penultimate date of the South American pre-world championship, against Uruguay.

In addition to Advíncula, the Bicolor will also recover defender Miguel Trauco, from the ranks of the French Saint-Étienne.

On the Ecuadorian side, Alexander Domínguez and Enner Valencia will not be on the field of the National Stadium of Peru. The experienced goalkeeper saw a red card on Thursday against Brazil, while the captain and scorer received his second caution.
