The information that the format of the last phase before the World Cup may change has been showing up in the last few hours. Yesterday Diego Rebagliati reported that everything was not 100% closed and that there would be an order from Conmebol and Concacaf to FIFA to play back and forth matches. Peru has already won its place in the repechage and now it will be defined how it will be played and also where.
“It would not be 100% closed if the match is only in Qatar. There is a request from Conmebol and Concacaf that it be played back and forth. All this since apparently the issue of COVID-19 is more controlled, that transfers can be made. New Zealand, Australia, have a greater openness for these things. And if not, let it be played in a more neutral territory,” the journalist commented on Movistar Deportes' Al Ángulo program after Peru 2-0 Paraguay.
Remember that after the COVID-19 pandemic that hit the whole world and the various restrictions in different countries, FIFA decided that the repechage will be played in a single match at a neutral venue (Doha, Qatar) and in June. However, all this may change with the request of the two Confederations.
Remember that in Concacaf the only official qualifier is Canada, while Costa Rica, Mexico and the United States fight for 2.5 places. The one who wins the half quota will enter the playoff against the winner of the match between New Zealand and Solomon Islands for the Oceania Qualifiers.
On the other hand, Conmebol defined Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay and Ecuador directly in Qatar 2022. While Peru will face the winner of the duel between United Arab Emirates and Australia (June 07). This match would be played for the time being between 13 and 14 June in Doha.
PERU BEAT PARAGUAY AND TOOK THE REPECHAGE
With scores from Gianluca Lapadula and Yoshimar Yotún, the Peruvian team beat Paraguay 2-0 and scored the three points needed to win fifth place in the South American Playoffs standings.
The match was resolved in the first half and the second half was more procedural. On the other hand, Colombia did its thing against Venezuela, but it was not enough with the victory of the 'blanquirroja'. Meanwhile, Chile fell 2-0 to Uruguay lost all its options and hopes of reaching fifth place.
