Nothing less is expected. Rival (a lowly Albania) and because he was on the substitute bench: Ricardo Gareca. With a resounding 3-0 win, the 'Tiger' era began in Chile, but beyond the end, ending a three-game winless streak, they showed signs of their side leading the way in the neighboring country. .

The friendly at the Ennio Tartini Stadium in Parma, Italy, restored hope to Chile, who have suffered a heavy absence from the World Cup for the past eight years, and today, as has been the case since 2015 in Peru, they come with an eye. Thanks to the Argentine coach.
Eduardo Vargas (19′) He made it 1-0. Nothing could be more perfect for this start. Despite the criticism he received from fans and the Chilean press, Gareca decided to call him up, and the forward paid off with a goal.
Marcos Bolados (83′) and Victor Davila (92′) The match was sanctioned. Interestingly on the day, Ben Brereton assisted on the last goal. The Chilean-rooted Englishman was criticized by the 'Tigers' for his language and was included in the squad for these friendlies due to injuries that have plagued the first-team squad. “You have to talk to him very slowly, it's not usually done that way in football,” the coach pointed out about the forward of England's Sheffield United in the match preview.
Friendship seems to be the start of a much-sought-after generational change in Chile. For example, Gareca did not call up Arturo Vidal and left Alexis Sanchez on the substitutes' bench in the second half. But Argentina has made it clear that the banners of the golden generation are not necessary.
The second Test for the 'Tiger' in charge of the Southern team will be held at the Velodrome in France on Tuesday. Today (3pm / Star+) La Roja take on France as they take on Germany at the Parc Olympique de Lyon in Lyon.
When will Peru face Garega's Chile?
The long-awaited first meeting between Peru and Carega's Chile will take place on June 21 this year for the first date of the Copa America.

Colombia integrates
It is Peru's next opponent in the qualifiers (on the 7th in Lima) and shows signs of being a team to be feared: Colombia beat Spain 1-0 at the Olympic Stadium in London.
Daniel Munoz (61'), a full back for Crystal Palace in the Premier League, scored a superb goal for the only goal of the match after an extraordinary play from Luis Diaz.
In this way, the coffee team was able to defeat Spain for the first time in its history (they faced each other four times), but they have accumulated 17 games without defeat: 12 wins and five draws. Those twelve wins also include wins against Germany and Brazil, the other two superpowers in world football.
In fact, this incredible streak began with the arrival of coach Nestor Lorenzo, who led Melgar to the semi-finals of Sudamericana 2022. Along with Argentina, Colombia are the only other South American team undefeated in qualifying. As opposed to bicolor
