Jorge Fossati debuted with the right foot in the Peruvian team. La Bicolor, in an Alejandro Villanueva stadium completely full of people, easily defeated Nicaragua 2-0 in a friendly duel and, in this way, was ready to face the Dominican Republic this Tuesday. In the run-up to this meeting, Oliver Sonne and Luis Advíncula were the protagonists of a moment that went viral. Here we tell you exactly what it is about.

A video has allowed us to see the Silkeborg IF player making a joke to the Boca Juniors side. It all started when the athlete of Danish origin did a particular exercise that led him to be ironic and assure the former Sporting Cristal that he was salsa. “Salsa,” Oliver is heard saying.

Advíncula, smiling, replied: “Salsa.” This situation caused Sonne to laugh and give the former Rayo Vallecano a small blow. This moment, as expected, generated thousands of reactions on various social networks.

“That Sonne has already revived”, “Advíncula is leading him down the wrong path”, “Sonne is already another Peruvian”, “Sonne quickly adopted himself into the national team’s locker room, that is very good”, “I hope that teacher Fossati Give him more minutes,” were some of the comments that said video provoked.

What Jorge Fossati said about Sonne’s debut

After the victory of the Peruvian team, Jorge Fossati was at the press conference where he highlighted the passion that the Peruvian fans have for the ‘Blanquirroja’. He also mentioned that the first objective was to win the game as it served as motivation for the players and the public. However, the former Universitario de Deportes coach referred to the chants that the fans present made for Oliver Sonne to enter, pointing out that “it was not funny”, so he asked for more calm.

“Sonne was warmed up. They weren’t all warming up, they were warming up the changes we had already worked on. I’m not happy that the stadium has asked me for a player. Simply, if I ignored it it is because the last one who has to be harmed is the player. It’s not his fault. “Whether a player is more likable or unfriendly, we would have to control ourselves a little in that to respect everyone,” the coach said at a press conference.
