(Picture: Pool via REUTERS)Peru striker Paolo Guerrero has slammed the South American football authorities and accused them of taking away their World Cup qualification after they were controversially denied a late equaliser against Uruguay.
Peru were 1-0 down in injury time in their key qualifier in Montevideo on Thursday night when Miguel Trauco’s looping shot was held on the line by Uruguayan ‘keeper Sergio Rochet, who then took a step backwards into his goal while holding the ball at arm's length.
