11:19 | Saransk (Russia), Jun. 15.

Peru's national soccer team held its last training session ahead of its debut match against Denmark at the 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia.

Held at Mordovia Arena in Saransk, this session was open to media for the first 15 minutes. Afterward, athletes trained behind closed doors.

On this occasion, coach Ricardo Gareca decided to leave striker Paolo Guerrero on the bench and conduct tactical exercises with Jefferson Farfan as the only attacker.

In this sense, today's session was useful for Gareca to clear up some doubts about his starting lineup for this Saturday.

Possible Lineup

Pedro Gallese, Luis Advincula, Christian Ramos, Alberto Rodriguez, Miguel Trauco, Renato Tapia, Yoshimar Yotun, Edison Flores, Jefferson Farfan, Christian Cueva, and Paolo Guerrero.
