Quotes

Juan Jose Ore (PER), Peru coach
I think we deserved to win this match based on the 90 minutes. I'd like to dedicate this win and our progression to the knockout stage to the people of Peru, who have suffered a very tough time recently. It's great to end up as winners of the group and we are looking forward to the next match - whoever we end up playing.
