South American World Cup Qualifying continued Tuesday evening with a full slate of games before club football returns at the weekend.
Here is what has gone down so far.
Argentina 1-0 Peru
Scorers: MartÃnez 55′
After defeat last time out, Argentina got back to winning ways with a narrow victory against Peru.
After a dull opening 45 minutes, Argentina upped the tempo in search of a go-ahead goal but Peru proved a tough nut to crack on more than one occasion.
Pedro Gallese and the Peruvian rearguard were stubborn throughout the night, and the frustration inside La Bombonera was palpable.
They were finally undone before the hour mark however, when Lautaro MartÃnez pulled off an audacious finish to fire home a Lionel Messi cross and give the hosts the lead.
The victory sees extend their lead at the top of the qualifying table to five points for now.
