Rivas found in free kicks the opportunity to find his teammates in Peru's area, but they haven't taken advantage of it so far.

The Central American team doesn't have the best ideas when having the ball and that's why Peru look more comfortable on the pitch.

Without the control of the ball and Peru pressing in the defense, Hondurans started to commit fouls.
