Late goal gives Peru 1-1 draw with U.S.

Peru, who beat Chile 3-0 last week, pushed hard for an equaliser and came close when Andy Polo's rasping drive from outside the box ricocheted back off the underside of the bar with goalkeeper Brad Guzman beaten.

With five minutes remaining, a line of U.S. defenders failed to clear Polo's tantalizing cross and Flores nipped in at the back post to sidefoot home.

The United States, beaten 4-2 by Colombia in their last friendly, take on England and Italy in friendlies next month.
