With the Copa America 2021 almost here, the South American teams are getting ready for the regional competition. Peru will be participating in the tournament with the hope of getting good performances.

Ricardo Gareca’s side will try to repeat in this edition the success they had in 2019 when they reached the final, although they lost 3-1 to the host Brazil. They were close to lifting the trophy, as they did in 1939 and 1975.

La Blanquirroja just got their first win at the Conmebol World Cup Qualifiers against Ecuador, and they will want to keep that way in Brazil. They are grouped with Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador and Venezuela. Here is Peru’s schedule for the Copa America 2021.
