The goalkeeper of the Peruvian soccer team, Pedro Gallese, explained why he took the cell phone from a young man who had entered the field to take a photo with the Argentine number 10, Lionel Messi, and then threw it onto the field.
The event occurred when in the middle of the match that meant a new defeat for the national team, four young people burst onto the playing field with the Albiceleste shirt to ask their idol for a photo. It was then that the captain of the Peruvian team violently took the phone from one of them and threw it into the air.

«The fans got carried away to see the world champion, but they don’t know that they can harm us because they can close the stadium. Yesterday they did not go to encourage. “My action was because I felt they disrespected the colors of our country,” he wrote.
It should be noted that the next match of the Peruvian team will be on November 21, in the National State of Lima against the Venezuelan squad. So far in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers, the bicolor has not won a single match.
