Argentina were held to a 0-0 draw by Peru in their crucial 2018 World Cup qualifying game on Thursday, leaving the South American giants’ hopes of reaching next year’s finals in Russia hanging by a thread.
With one round of games remaining in South America’s qualifying tournament, Argentina are outside the qualification places.
It means Argentina will be reliant on results elsewhere going in their favour next Tuesday if they are to avoid failing to qualify for the World Cup for the first time since 1970. – Agence France-Presse
