This eagerly awaited tie finally got underway in front of the sort of meagre attendance we've come to expect when the hosts aren't playing. Peru, wearing black armbands as a mark of respect for their 100,000+ countrymen & women who had died in a devastating earthquake just two days before, set about making their nation proud with a blistering start.
A superb early through ball from Gallardo to Pedro Leon brought a smart save from Bulgarian keeper Simeonov, but from the resulting short corner, a neat piece of control and shot from Cubillas put the Peruvians ahead.
The South Americans then doubled their lead following another corner when Cubillas teed up Roberto Challe whose angled shot cut across Simeonov for 2-0.

Peru made it 3-0 mid-way through the second half, with a wonderful goal. With some patient build-up play they worked the ball to Gallardo on the edge of the area. He squared it to Leon who hit an instant first time shot whilst the ball was still rolling which arrowed into the net, giving the Slavia Sofia keeper no chance.

There were some tears of pride & joy for the Peruvians at full time, but the Bulgarians produced a disappointing display with only two shots on target in the whole game.
