Peru shock Colombia on the road: Highlights and goal from Edison Flores (1-0)

Peru have stuck to their guns in Barranquilla to claim a hard-fought victory over Colombia on Matchday 15 of the South American World Cup Qualifiers. The hosts did everything they could to break the deadlock but Pedro Gallese denied all their efforts. With less than ten minutes for the final whistle, Edison Flores capitalized on one of the few chances La Blanquirroja had to give them a huge victory.

Reinaldo Rueda's men have extended their winless run to six games (D4 L2) - having failed to score a goal in each of those games as well. On the other hand, Ricardo Gareca's side has claimed its third win in a row. Peru took a huge step towards Qatar 2022, while Los Cafeteros have plenty of work to do to.
