À défaut de marquer des buts, l'Uruguay marque le pas. Troisième des qualifications de la Coupe du monde 2026 de la zone Amérique du Sud, l'Uruguay n'a pas profité du faux pas de la Colombie, battue la veille par la Bolivie (0-1). En cas de succès au Pérou, lanterne rouge, les hommes de Marcelo Bielsa, sévèrement critiqué par Luis Suarez il y a dix jours, avaient l'occasion de prendre la 2e place du groupe. Mais la Celeste, toujours en panne d'efficacité offensive, s'est inclinée (0-1), sa défense craquant en fin de match sur une tête de Miguel Araujo (87e). Ce but permet aux Péruviens de décrocher leur première victoire dans cette campagne de qualification et de céder la dernière place au Chili au terme de cette 9e journée de qualification de la zone AmSud.

A late Miguel Araujo strike has earned Peru an upset 1-0 win over Uruguay – their first World Cup qualifying win in ten matches – and helped breathe new life into their bid to reach the global showpiece. In front of a boisterous crowd in Lima, first half chances were very hard to come by; a close-range Darwin Nunez header that was easily dealt with by Pedro Gallese and a speculative Manuel Ugarte effort from distance the best of those limited moments as the teams went to the break with the scoreboard untroubled. Shortly after the restart, Peru’s Edison Flores found himself inside the box but he wasn’t able to direct his effort on target from a tight angle. The hosts though were starting to enjoy a more positive spell, with Sergio Pena rippling the side netting as the hour mark approached. Just when the match appeared to be finishing all square, the hosts struck. Substitute Piero Quispe sending in a cross from the right that Miguel Araujo met with a thumping header, the shot going in off the hand of keeper Sergio Rochet and the post to spark wild celebrations in the Peruvian capital. That win was the nation’s first of the campaign and has helped move them off the foot of the standings while Uruguay stay third at the halfway mark of the campaign.
