Hours before the first Peru-New Zealand World Cup-qualifying playoff, President Pedro Pablo Kuczynski along with his official delegation sent a message of support to the national soccer team from Viet Nam.
"Long live Peru! We will win today. We all are warriors. Go Peru!" official staff members said in a video.
Such message has been shared by the Peruvian Head of State via Twitter and Facebook.
The presidential delegation is also composed of Ministers Eduardo Ferreyros (Foreign Trade and Tourism) and Ricardo Luna (Foreign Affairs), as well as the President's wife Nancy Lange.

The return leg will be held at Lima's National Stadium (Peru) on November 15 at 9:15 PM (local time).
