Germany beat them Peruvian team a hard blow in their first game of this year 2023. Juan Reynoso’s team was easy prey to German might, losing 2-0 at the Mewa Arena, a result that could have been harder if the Germans hadn’t played To 100 According to their coach Hans-Dieter Flick, they would have realized all the goal opportunities generated. For the “Cabezón”, on the other hand, the defeat was a setback in his strategy of adopting a new tactical scheme.
The Peru coach innovated with an unusual starting XI with a back five (three central defenders plus two full-backs) that didn’t pay off. The conclusions reached after this bet will surely motivate the Bicolor DT to present some variants for their next friendly match against Morocco.
Ruidíaz lapadula holder
The “Bambino” jumped onto the field in the second half to replace the “Floh”. During the addition, the improvement in Inka’s line-up was noted with a forward offering more resistance and opening spaces against opposing defenders, as well as a greater opportunity to pass for his teammates.
The Cagliari striker did not start as a precaution, having assured himself in a press conference that he had already recovered from his ailments. From what was seen against Germany, the inclusion of Lapadula from the first minute seems like one of the mandatory moves.

Carlos Zambrano from the start
The absence of the Alianza Lima defender was one of Reynoso’s decisions that surprised the fans the most. With no apparent physical problems, the “León” only came on in the final minutes of the second half, when the result was already decided.
Against Morocco, with a likely return to a two-back system, Zambrano could have a chance to start the action as a substitute for Luis Abram, who was imprecise and made a crucial mistake on Germany’s first goal.

Another player who left a poor image was the Feyenoord team from the Netherlands. ‘ML20’, characterized by his tendency to get involved, could not show this good quality and also made no contribution in defense.
Although the ‘genius’ hasn’t worn the Rojiblanca shirt for more than nine months, the hierarchy he’s built with the team over the years could be a point to count on him as a regular. In addition, he has continuity in his MLS team San Jose Earthquakes.
