Carrillo has Peru's 1st World Cup goal since 1982

FOOTBALL
Australia's Mathew Ryan concedes as Peru's Andre Carrillo scores their first goal.
Andre Carrillo's 18th-minute volley has given Peru a 1-0 lead over Australia and its first World Cup goal since 1982.

It was a slow start for both teams, but picked up when Carrillo met a cross from the left and launched a strike to the far post. Peru had been held goalless through the first two games of the group stage. Peru has not been in the World Cup since 1982 and lost 5-1 to Poland in its final game that year.

Australia must win to have a chance at advancing to the knockout stage.

Earlier Australia brought in striker Tomi Juric for Tuesday's must-win Group C encounter with Peru.

With only two goals in two games so far, the Socceroos have Juric in place of Andrew Nabbout up front in a bid to score goals and avoid an early exit.

Australia must win and Denmark must lose to France in the other Group C game for the Aussies to have any chance of progressing to the knock-out stage. Peru, who lost their two opening games, are already out.

The Peruvians made two changes from the team that started their last match, a 1-0 loss to France. Anderson Santamaria and Renato Tapia both start for the South Americans.

Veteran forward Tim Cahill will not be in the starting lineup for Australia in its must-win World Cup game against Peru.

Australia coach Bert van Marwijk has decided to go with Tomi Juric to replace Andrew Nabbout, who injured his shoulder in the 1-1 draw with Denmark. There was speculation about Cahill possibly moving into the starting lineup. The 38-year-old Cahill, who has scored in each of the last three World Cups, has yet to play in the tournament.

Australia must win and have France beat Denmark to have a chance of advancing to the knockout stage for the second time.

Peru, which has already been eliminated, made two changes to its starting lineup with Anderson Santamaria and Renato Tapia winning selections.

Lineups:

Australia: Mat Ryan, Mark Milligan, Mathew Leckie, Tomi Juric, Robbie Kruse, Aaron Mooy, Mile Jedanik, Aziz Behich, Josh Risdon, Trent Sainsbury, Tom Rogic.

Peru: Pedro Gallese, Anderson Santamaria, Miguel Trauco, Christian Cueva, Paolo Guerrero, Renato Tapia, Christian Ramos, Luis Advincula, Andre Carrillo, Yoshimar Yotun, Edison Flores.
