Peru v Mexico odds for this July 8 Copa America 2011 game had Peru at 11/8 and Mexico at 19/10. The draw was at 21/10. ( Copa América Apuestas)
With 10 players suspended, Mexico lost 1-2 to Chile in their first Copa America game. Among those 10 missing players were some of their best including Manchester’s Javier Hernandez. This was one of the most sought after games to bet on according to Gambling911.com traffic data.
Peru managed a 1-1 draw against Uruguay.
Uruguay coach Oscar Tabarez had hoped for far more but conceded simply that "today we couldn't achieve what we wanted."
Markarian, in his first tournament as Peru coach, was happy with the result and performance.
"It's a good result - it was important to get off the mark," he told journalists.
Uruguay was a semi-finalist in the 2010 World Cup and has only had four player changes since that time and they still have the same coach.
