Peru's worst sports experience happened in soccer. In 2019, the Copa America was
played with Brazil hosting the event. Peru had eliminated Uruguay and Chile inthe
qualifiers to get to play the final against Brazil. Peruvians were very excited because the
team was playing well and focused. Brazil had better rated players so this showed them as
the favorites for the final.The match was played at the Maracanã stadium. While Peru
struggled to counter the rival players, Brazil showed the high level of soccer they have.
Peru unfortunately lost by a score of 3-1, while Brazil won the ninth Copa America.We
Peruvians were disappointed because we had hoped to be better than Brazil, but losing
did not take away our pride in seeing our team in a final after 45 years.
