Argentina dominated Peru from the beginning and Echeverri with a double, at 16 and 36 minutes, became the most outstanding figure of the match.

Indeed, Echeverri received the ball near the area, faced it and ended up chipping it over goalkeeper Juan Pedro Durán. Barely 5 minutes later, the Argentine team stretched the advantage: following a cross from the left, Ruberto connected and scored the 2-0 score for the Argentine team, which with that goal was on its way to victory and already enjoyed qualifying for the next instance.

With that 3-0 score already declared, Peru lowered its arms and the match became a formality for the Placente team, which let the minutes go by with the satisfaction of having fulfilled their duty.
Even in the second half there was a very clear goal play at the feet of Santiago López, which might have even given the score even more compelling figures.
