The Peru national football team represents Peru in international football competition and is managed by the Peruvian Football Federation (FPF). The team competes against the other nine members of FIFA's CONMEBOL conference, which encompasses the countries of South America. The Peruvian team's performance has been inconsistent, although it is considered to have enjoyed two successful periods in the 1930s and 1970s.[2]

Founded in 1927, the Peru national football team plays its home matches primarily at the Estadio Nacional in Lima. Peru has won the Copa América twice, qualified for four FIFA World Cup tournaments, and participated in two Olympic tournaments. Peru's traditional footballing rival is Chile,[3] but the team also has a prominent rivalry with Ecuador. The classic colors of the team are white and red, the colors of the Peruvian flag, and the team is commonly known as la Blanquirroja (Spanish for "the white-and-red").[4]

Early in its history, Peru participated in World Cup tournaments and enjoyed victories in the 1938 Bolivarian Games and the 1939 Copa América, when it was led by Teodoro Fernández, Juan Valdivieso, and Alejandro Villanueva.[2] Peruvian football's successful period in the 1970s brought Peru back to world recognition, with players such as Héctor Chumpitaz, Hugo Sotil, and Teófilo Cubillas.[5][6] This team qualified for three FIFA World Cups and won the Copa América in 1975.

Peru's 1982 World Cup participation was its last to date: the national team has not since won a major tournament or participated in a World Cup tournament. The team was temporarily suspended from international participation by FIFA in late 2008 due to allegations of corruption involving government sport authorities and the FPF. Peru has currently appointed Uruguayan Sergio Markarián as its head coach and, after achieving third place at the 2011 Copa América, seeks to qualify for the 2014 FIFA World Cup.

History

Main article: History of the Peru national football team

Football was introduced to Peru in the nineteenth century by British immigrants and Peruvians returning from England.[7] In 1859, Lima's British community founded the Lima Cricket Club, a sports club for practicing cricket, hockey, tennis, and football.[A][9][10] In the nearby port city of Callao, English sailors played the sport with the local workers.[B] Sports rivalries arose in Callao, between locals and foreigners, and in Lima, between elites and urban workers. Overtime, as the foreigners departed, this became a rivalry between Callao and Lima.[12][7][13] Due to these several factors, including the sport's rapid development among the urban poor of Lima's La Victoria district (thanks to the foundation of Alianza Lima in 1901), Peru formed the strongest footballing culture in the Andean region.[14]

Hugo Sotil, Teófilo Cubillas, and Roberto Challe at Peru's national stadium in 1973. Sotil and Cubillas "forged an ideal partnership" on the attack of Peru's second golden era.[15]

In 1912, the first Peruvian Football League tournament was organized, lasting until team disputes discontinued the league in 1921.[16] Consequently, in 1922 a central organization was created, the Peruvian Football Federation (FPF),[C] to take charge of the troubled Peruvian Football League tournament in 1926.[17] The FPF joined the South American Football Confederation (CONMEBOL) in 1925, and (after resolving financial problems) formed a national football team in 1927.[18] Peru debuted in the 1927 South American Championship.[19]

During the 1930s, Peruvian football entered its first golden era.[2] Starting with Ciclista Lima in 1926, Peruvian clubs toured throughout Latin America. One of these tours, Alianza Lima's undefeated journey through Chile in 1935, saw the formation of "The Black Roller" (Spanish: El Rodillo Negro) led by players Alejandro Villanueva, Juan Valdivieso, and Teodoro Fernández.[20][21] Sports historian Richard Witzig writes that these players "formed a soccer triumvirate unsurpassed in the world at that time".[2] Peru, which had a prior fair performance at the inaugural FIFA World Cup in 1930,[22] with El Rodillo Negro awed audiences at the 1936 Summer Olympics, won the inaugural Bolivarian Games in 1938, and finished the decade as South American champions.[23][24]

Subsequent years proved lackluster for the Peruvian team. According to historian David Goldblatt, "despite all the apparent preconditions for footballing growth and success, Peruvian football disappeared." He attributes this to the repression taken against "social, sporting and political organization among the urban and rural poor" during the 1940s and 50s.[25] During this period, Peru was generally "in the middle of the standings" at South American Championships, and barely missed the Sweden 1958 World Cup after being narrowly defeated by Brazil (which went on to win the competition).[26]

A series of staggering victories in the late 1960s, culminating in the qualification for the Mexico 1970 World Cup, brought Peru to another golden era.[27][2] Peru reached quarterfinals (knocked out by Brazil, the eventual champions), and earned the first FIFA Fair Play Trophy.[28][29] Peru next won its second Copa América in 1975 and qualified for the Argentina 1978 World Cup, reaching the competition's second round. Lastly, the squad qualified to the Spain 1982 World Cup, but did not get past the first stage. Peru's elimination ended a period when its "flowing football was admired across the globe."[30]

Renewed expectations for Peru, following the national team's failed qualification for the Mexico 1986 World Cup, centered on a young generation of Alianza Lima players known colloquially as "The Colts" (Spanish: Los Potrillos).[D] Yet, on December 8, 1987, an aircraft returning to Lima most of Alianza's team and coaching staff from Pucallpa (in the Peruvian Amazon) crashed into the Pacific Ocean, leaving among the dead several national team players (including rising sensation Luis Escobar and goalkeeper José González Ganoza) and national team coach Marcos Calderón.[32] Peru's ensuing hiatus, ending last in both the 1990 and 1994 World Cup qualifiers, experienced a slight recovery at the end of the decade. After earning fourth place at the 1997 Copa América, the national side nearly qualified for the France 1998 World Cup, eliminated only due to a goal difference with Chile.[33] Afterwards, Peru won the 1999 Kirin Cup (sharing the title with Belgium) and gained third place at the 2000 CONCACAF Gold Cup.[34][35]

Presently, Peru continues its unsuccessful streak of eliminations to the World Cup finals, in addition to struggling with player indiscipline scandals and accusations of corruption. Much of the blame for Peru's performance is placed on FPF President Manuel Burga.[36][37][38] In 2008, the Peruvian government charged Burga with corruption and made his re-election illegal. In response, FIFA suspended Peruvian Football League officials and referees, the national football team, and prevented Peru from hosting the 2009 South American Youth Championship.[39] After Peruvian Institute of Sport (IPD) president Arturo Woodman agreed to discuss matters and reach an agreement with the FPF, FIFA President Sepp Blatter lifted the bans and restrictions.[40] With FIFA's approval, the FPF later reappointed Burga in 2009.[41] That same year Peru ended last in CONMEBOL's World Cup qualifying round-robin tournament and as the lowest-ranked team in the South American confederation.[42]

On July 2, 2010, Uruguayan Sergio Markarián took charge of the national team tasked with leading Peru in the 2011 Copa América and the 2014 FIFA World Cup.[43] His work with the squad received positive comments from Pelé,[44] and Peru won the Kirin Cup in 2011.[45] Markarián's first challenge was another indiscipline scandal; Markarián temporarily banned Reimond Manco and John Galliquio.[46] Peru achieved third place at the 2011 Copa América, even though several of the team's key players were unavailable because of injuries.[47]

Uniform

Peru's national colors are red and white.[48] The team's first uniform was made for the 1927 South American Championship; it consisted of white shorts and a shirt with red vertical stripes. For the 1930 FIFA World Cup, an all-white kit with a red collar was chosen. A third uniform was made for the 1935 South American Championship; a horizontal red stripe was added. Peru's current uniform was designed for the 1936 Berlin Summer Olympics; a red stripe crosses the chest diagonally from the left shoulder to the hip's right in the front and vice-versa in the back.[4]

According to sports historian Jaime Pulgar Vidal Otálora, Peru's first uniform was similar to that of Alianza Lima, whose kits were influenced by the jockey uniforms used in Peruvian President Augusto B. Leguía's stables. The only difference between the kits was the color of the jersey's vertical stripes, which were blue for Alianza and red for the national side. Pulgar Vidal Otálora argues that Peru's first uniform was probably directly influenced by Leguía, pointing out that the kit was later changed after he was overthrown from power in 1932.[49] The team's second uniform, worn by Peru at the 1930 FIFA World Cup, was an alternate kit used only because Paraguay had already registered a uniform that was of similar design.[49]

Pulgar Vidal Otálora claims that Peru acquired its current design from a tradition of adding a red diagonal stripe to distinguish teams playing with white jerseys.[50] In 2010, the ESPN television network placed Peru's 1978 jersey first in a list of the "Best World Cup jerseys of all time," praising its "simple yet strikingly effective piece of design."[51] That same year, Christopher Turpin (NPR's executive producer of All Things Considered) also praised the 1970 design, claiming that "[t]o this day, I still think it’s the beautiful game’s most beautiful shirt."[52]

Peru's uniform has been manufactured by eight separate companies. In 1978, Adidas became the first official manufacturer. During the 1980s, Peru had contracts with Penalty (1981–1982), Adidas (1983–1985), Calvo Sportwear (1987), and Power (1989–1991). In the 1990s, Peru contracted with Diadora (1991–1992), local manufacturer Polmer (1993–1995), and Umbro (1996–1997). It also had a long-term contract with local company Walon Sport (1998–2010).[4] Since 2010, Umbro has again produced the kits for Peru.[53]

Stadium

Main article: Estadio Nacional (Lima)
The renovated Estadio Nacional offers high-quality lighting for HD newscasts.[54]

The Estadio Nacional is a 45,000-spectator stadium located in Lima that acts as the traditional home of the Peruvian team and the national stadium of Peru.[19] The first national stadium, a wooden structure with a 6,000-spectator capacity, was donated by Lima's British community to celebrate Peru's centenary of independence from Spain; it was inaugurated on July 24, 1923.[55] Under the regime of General Manuel Odría, the stadium was reconstructed, expanded, and officially re-inaugurated on October 27, 1952, with the current spectator capacity.[56] The present stadium is the result of a renovation process conducted under the government of Alan García; it was re-inaugurated on July 24, 2011.[57]

A unique feature of the stadium is the Miguel Dasso Tower, named in honor of the main advocate of the stadium's first renovation. Located on the building's northern side, the tower had luxury boxes which overtime fell into disuse until the tower's renovation in 2004.[58] The arena was also the only national stadium in CONMEBOL to have artificial turf, installed to improve its aesthetic appeal for the 2005 FIFA U-17 World Championship, and was one of Peru's four "FIFA Star II" (the highest certification granted to artificial pitches) stadiums.[59]

Renovations completed in 2011 brought major changes to the Estadio Nacional, including an overhaul of the artificial turf in favor of natural bermudagrass.[60] The building's exterior is now covered by thousands of plaques made from a zinc aluminium alloy, and another tower was constructed on the southern side of the stadium to host a restaurant.[61] Additional improvements include a modern exterior and interior multi-colored illumination system, two giant LED screens, individual spectator seats, and 375 private suites.[54]

The national team occasionally selects other stadiums as its home venue. Outside the "desert-like coastal region" where Lima is situated, the thin atmosphere at the high-altitude Estadio Garcilaso de la Vega in Cusco and the balmy Amazonic climate of the Estadio Max Augustín in Iquitos provide strategic advantages against certain rivals.[62][63] Other common alternate venues for the national team include Alianza's Estadio Alejandro Villanueva and Universitario's Estadio Monumental "U", both located in the Peruvian capital.[64][65]

Supporters

See also: Football in Peru
Amid the 2014 World Cup qualifiers, Peru had an average of 36,827 spectators per game at the Estadio Nacional.[66]

During the nineteenth century, football in Peru "was markedly English, played by members of the expatriate community and the Anglophile elite on grass pitches in clubs that were physically separated from the daily reality of Lima."[67] Matters changed in the early twentieth century as football became "a form of popular culture with autonomous characteristics of organization and practice." The Peruvian state, under the government of Augusto B. Leguía, proceeded to institutionalize the sport into national culture by promoting and organizing its development in the country.[68] Nowadays, football remains the most popular sport in Peru, captivating the populace's "fervor, enthusiasm, and passion."[69]

Peruvian fans commonly encourage the national squad with the popular sports chant ¡Arriba Perú!.[70] Fans have also traditionally expressed their support for club teams, football players, and the national side through música criolla, an early popular music genre from Peru. By the 1930s, with the advent of mass media, música criolla enjoyed "national and international recognition" to the point that it became "a symbol of national culture" for Peru.[71] To this day, the national team's popular anthem is Peru Campeón, a polka criolla glorifying Peru's qualification to the Mexico 1970 World Cup.[72][71]

Supporters of Peru are infamously known for the Estadio Nacional disaster, considered as one of the most terrible in football history,[73][25] which occurred on May 24, 1964, during a 1964 Summer Olympics qualifying match between the youth (under-20) squads of Peru and Argentina. Problems were sparked after Uruguayan referee Angel Payos disallowed a goal from Peru, which would have tied the score, alleging "rough play" from the Peruvians. Two spectators jumped into the field to attack the referee while a "fusillade of objects" were thrown on the pitch from the stands. Police responded by throwing tear gas into the crowd, causing a stampede that was worsened by the stadium's locked gates. The death toll amounted to 315 spectators and more than 500 were injured in the chaos.[25][74]

FIFA World Cup record

File:Peru 1970 National Football Team (digital restoration).jpg
Peru defeated Morocco (3–0) at the Mexico 1970 FIFA World Cup.

Peru has participated in fourteen World Cup qualifiers (the first in 1958 and the last in 1982) and four World Cup finals. In the qualifiers, the squad has a record of thirty-one wins, twenty-eight draws, and fifty-four losses, with 118 goals in favor and 159 against. In the finals, the team hold a record of four wins, three draws, and eight losses, with 19 goals in favor and 31 against.[75] Luis de Souza Ferreira scored Peru's first tournament goal on July 14, 1930, in a match against Romania.[76] Teófilo Cubillas is the national team's top World Cup scorer with 10 goals in thirteen games.[77]

As one of the thirteen national sides who accepted the invitation to the inaugural World Cup, Peru was drawn into Group 3 with Romania and hosts Uruguay. With a mere 300 spectators, Peru's match against Romania holds the record of lowest attendance in a World Cup game. Peru were eliminated in the group stage after losing to Romania (1–3) and Uruguay (0–1). During the match against Romania, Peru's Plácido Galindo became the first player to be sent off during a World Cup.[78]

The squad next qualified for the 1970 FIFA World Cup, overcoming a 1–2 loss to Bolivia in a match fixed by referee Sergio Chechelev in favor of Argentina, and tying in Argentina with the locals 2–2.[E][79][80] In the World Cup, Peru defeated Bulgaria 3–2 after trailing 0–2 at half-time,[81] beat Morocco (3–0), lost to West Germany (1–3), and were eliminated by Brazil (2–4) in the quarterfinals.[82][83]

Peru next qualified for the 1978 cup held in Argentina, finishing as group leader after defeating Scotland (3–1) and Iran (4–1),[84][85] and drawing with the Netherlands (0–0).[86][87] In the second round, rumors circulated that Peru had been paid by the Argentine military government to play poorly and concede the goals Argentina needed to reach the final. None of the allegations could be proven, and Argentina won the tournament.[88]

Before the Spain 1982 World Cup came, Peru embarked on a successful practice tour in Europe and Africa (defeating Hungary (1–2) and France (0–1), and tying Algeria (1–1); upon returning home, Peru defeated Romania by 2–0), but were eliminated early after draws with Cameroon (0–0) and Italy (1–1), and a loss to Poland (5–1).[89]

Copa América record

Main article: Peru at the Copa América
Peru prior to its inaugural match, against Uruguay, in the 1927 South American Championship.

Peru has participated in thirty-one Copa América tournaments (the first in 1927), hosted the tournament in six occasions (1927, 1935, 1939, 1953, 1957, 2004), and won it twice (1939 and 1975). The team has a record of forty-nine victories, thirty-two draws, and fifty-five losses, with 199 goals in favor and 222 against.[75] Demetrio Neyra scored Peru's first tournament goal on November 13, 1927, in a match against Bolivia.[49] The team boasts three tournament top scorers (Teodoro Fernández [7 goals, 1939], Eduardo Malásquez [3 goals, 1983], and Paolo Guerrero [5 goals, 2011]),[90] and three hat-trick scorers (Teodoro Fernández [1939 and 1941], Miguel Loayza [1959], and Paolo Guerrero [2011]).[91]

The Peruvian team's first continental title was acquired in the 1939 South American Championship, after a string of undefeated victories against Ecuador (5–2), Chile (3–1), Paraguay (3–0), and Uruguay (2–1). The team had 13 goals in favor and 4 against. Peru became the fourth nation to win the South American championship, after Uruguay, Brazil, and Argentina, and the first team from western South America to obtain the title.[92]

The national side won its second continental title in the 1975 Copa América, the first time the tournament was played by all ten CONMEBOL members and also the first time the competition was held without a fixed venue.[93] Peru ended as leader of Group 2 in the first stage, eliminating Chile and Bolivia. In the semifinals, Peru defeated Brazil (1–3) in Belo Horizonte but lost in Lima (0–2), forcing a CONMEBOL-sponsored "choice of card" which determined Peru the winner. The two-game final that followed between Colombia and Peru saw both win their respective home games in Bogota (1–0) and Lima (2–0), forcing a play-off in Caracas which the Peruvians won by a goal.[94]

Olympic record

Peru's 1936 Summer Olympics team. The IFFHS considers it "a technically excellent and strong attacking side," which "had everything to be a finalist."[95]

Peru's senior side participated in one football tournament in the Olympic games, the controversial 1936 Summer Olympics held in Nazi Germany. The squad has a record of three victories and two losses in five matches, with 17 goals in favor and 14 against. Teodoro Fernández scored Peru's first tournament goal on August 6, 1936, in a match against Finland. Fernández is also the team's top scorer, with a total of six goals in two games, and Peru's only football player to have scored a hat-trick at the Olympics.

Peru was the only South American football team to compete in the 1936 Berlin Olympics.[2] Players for Peru included Teodoro Fernández, Alejandro Villanueva, Juan Valdivieso, and Adelfo Magallanes.[96]

The team began the tournament well, defeating Finland by 7–3. The Peruvians next eliminated the Austrian Wunderteam, favorites to win the tournament, defeating them 4–2 in extra time. However, after the game, the Austrian team alleged that the Peruvian players had manhandled them and that Peruvian spectators, one brandishing a revolver, had invaded the pitch during overtime.[97] However, Peru - the away team - had few supporters, and the nationalities or identities of the spectators who entered the field during the regular time were never discovered.[98] Despite the lack of concrete evidence, the International Olympic Committee, presided by Jules Rimet,[99] nullified the result and ordered a re-match behind closed doors. The Peruvian and Colombian delegations forfeited the games in protest.[97] The story was told differently by European and South American media; the exact details of the incident remain unknown.[96] Nowadays, the IFFHS is the only international football organization to condemn the actions taken against Peru in the tournament.[99]

During the 1960s, Peru qualified for the 1960 Summer Olympics in Rome. At the tournament, Peru defeated India (1-3) with goals "in the closing stages" of their match.[100]

Rivalries

See also: Chile and Peru football rivalry and Ecuador and Peru football rivalry
Raúl Toro (Chile) and Teodoro Fernandez (Peru), opponents during the 1937 South American Championship.

Peru maintains prominent football rivalries with Chile and Ecuador. The national side has a favorable record against Ecuador, but a negative record against Chile.[101][102] The first time Peru faced both its rivals in an official tournament was during the 1939 South American Championship held in Lima, with Peru emerging victorious against Chile and Ecuador.[103] In the FIFA World Cup, Peru's first confrontation against both rivals happened in the Argentina 1978 World Cup qualifiers, in which Peru directly eliminated Ecuador and Chile after defeating them in Lima and tying them at Quito and Santiago, respectively.[101][102]

The rivalry between Chile and Peru, popularly known as the Clásico del Pacífico (Pacific Derby),[104] stems from a historic political and economic competition that reached its climax in the nineteenth century War of the Pacific. CNN (Cable News Network) considers this derby to be among the top ten football rivalries in the world.[105] Chile and Peru also traditionally vie for the rank of fourth best national team in South America (behind Argentina, Brazil, and Uruguay); however, unlike Peru, Chile has never won a major international competition.[106] Both nations further dispute the origin of the football move known as the bicycle kick, Peruvians naming it chalaca and Chileans calling it chilena.[107]

Peru's rivalry with Ecuador, derived from historical border conflicts, is not as large as that with Chile, but is of competitive importance to both nations.[108] "A proposito de la Copa Ameria de 1995, la propia Confederacion Sudamericana de Futbol estimo la posibilidad de cambiar de grupo a Peru o Ecuador a fin de que no chocaran entre si como lo habia determinado el sorteo, por las posibles hostilidades que las acciones belicas producidas a inicios de este ano podrian provocar."[109]

Honored players

Peru's 1982 World Cup team featured in a postage stamp from Paraguay.

According to CONMEBOL, Peruvian teams play with much technique and elegance, generally making them one of the finest exponents of South American football.[110]

Alejandro Villanueva, Teodoro Fernández, and Juan Valdivieso were part of the Combinado del Pacífico,[F] a united Peruvian-Chilean squad that toured England, Germany, France, and Spain. The Combinado ended with 13 games won, 13 tied, and 13 lost; Fernández was top scorer with 48 goals.[111] Hugo Sotil, Héctor Chumpitaz, and Teófilo Cubillas were selected from the Peruvian football team to join the starting line-up of the South America XI that played against the Europe XI in 1973 at the Nou Camp of FC Barcelona. Sotil scored South America's second goal, and Chumpitaz's goal evened the score (4–4); South America beat Europe 7–6 in the penalty rounds.[112]

In 2011, Peru also obtained five LG Corp. Player of the Game awards, twice for Paolo Guerrero and Juan Manuel Vargas, and once for William Chiroque, the most awarded to a national team in the tournament.

Managers

Sergio Markarián, the current manager of Peru

Peru's first manager, Uruguayan Pedro Olivieri, was appointed for the 1927 South American Championship held in Peru.

Two managers have led Peru to CONMEBOL tournament victories, Englishman Jack Greenwell and Peruvian Marcos Calderón (1975). In 1939, Greenwell led Peru through an undefeated South American Championship run. In 1975, Calderón took Peru to victory in the newly renamed Copa América tournament.

Four managers have led Peru in the FIFA World Cup competition: Spaniard Francisco Bru (1930),[113] Brazilians Valdir Pereira (1970) and Elba de Pádua Lima (1982),[114][115] and Peruvian Marcos Calderón (1978).[116] Pereira's 1970 squad reached the quarter-finals; the team's furthest progression in the World Cup.

In the Kirin Cup invitational tournament, Peru has obtained three titles under separate management. The first was obtained in 1999 under Colombian Francisco Maturana, the second in 2005 under Peruvian Freddy Ternero, and the third in 2011 under Uruguayan Sergio Markarián.

Fixtures and records

Peru was the first team awarded the FIFA Fair Play Trophy.

Peru has played 525 official matches, including friendlies, since 1927. Peru has a good performance record against Asian, African, Caribbean, and Central American teams.[117][118] The highest scoring victory achieved by the Peruvian squad is a 9–1 score against Ecuador in the inaugural Bolivarian Games. The team's biggest defeat occurred in the 1997 Copa América, when Brazil defeated Peru by 7–0.[75] Peru was the first team to receive a FIFA Fair Play Trophy, awarded in the 1970 FIFA World Cup, Peru being the only team that received no yellow or red cards in their games.[119]

Roberto Palacios has the most appearances with the national team, having played 122 times between 1992 and 2007. Héctor Chumpitaz, with 105 appearances is second and Jorge Soto, with 101 appearances is third. For goalkeepers, Oscar Ibañez holds the most appearances with 50 caps, followed by Miguel Miranda (47 caps) and Ramón Quiroga (40 caps).[120] Teófilo Cubillas is the team's top goalscorer with 26 goals in 81 appearances. Teodoro Fernández is second, but holds a higher goal per appearance average with 24 goals in 32 appearances. In third place is Nolberto Solano, who has 20 goals in 89 appearances.[120] Claudio Pizarro scored Peru's fastest goal during a match against Mexico on August 20, 2003; Pizarro also scored the second fastest goal and Luis Ramírez the third.[121]
