Having gotten 3 points already from their first group stage encounter, France would have one leg in the knockout stage already if they managed to win against Peru tonight.
Both nations started with their best lineups.
Peru started in a 4-2-3-1 formation with Gallese in between the posts; ahead of him stood a defensive quadruple of Lopez, Garces, Zambrano, and Advincula. In midfield was the duo of Aquino and Tapia.
Flores played attacking midfield, with Polo in right wing and Reyna in left wing. Guerrero led the line for Peru as the striker.
