For the Lions of Teranga this friendly is a crucial step in their final preparations for the 2026 World Cup. Senegal arrive in France amidst a storm of controversy following the recent AFCON. Although Senegal defeated Morocco on the pitch in the final, the CAF Appeal Board recently stripped them of the title, awarding Morocco a 3-0 victory after Senegal briefly walked off the pitch in protest during the match.

On the other hand, Peru are entering a new era of reconstruction. After failing to qualify for the 2026 World Cup—finishing 9th in the CONMEBOL standings—the Bicolor have turned to veteran Brazilian manager Mano Menezes.
