Controversy that motivated DoradoBet’s return action
In stoppage time in the match played between the two South American teams last Thursday, 24th, a cross by Peruvian player Miguel Trauco surprised Uruguayan goalkeeper Sergio Rochet, who went completely inside the goal. The question is whether the ball also crossed the goal line or not.
Despite hours later, Conmebol published the VAR audios in which the judges are heard to conclude that the ball has not fully entered, the anger and disappointment of Peruvian fans still lingers.
It is worth mentioning that the victory guaranteed the qualification of the Uruguayan team directly for this year’s World Cup, while Peru still depends on the result of the last match that takes place this Tuesday, 29. In addition, the Peruvian team is no longer in a position to reach a of the four direct places for the Cup and will need to secure the 5th place, which leads to the repechage.
In other words, the team will still need to beat another opponent to celebrate the qualification to the 2022 World Cup. However, Chile and Colombia still threaten Peru’s fifth position and a stumble against Paraguay could end the team’s chances of being in Qatar at the end of the year. All qualifying matches will take place this Tuesday at 8:30 pm (Brasilia time).
