In this special series hosted by Christopher Vizcardo (@viz_fc), we examine Peru's journey and participation at the first-ever World Cup in 1930.

Christopher spoke to 1930 World Cup reseachers Dean Lockyer (@WC1930Blogger) and James Brown (@1930WorldCup) about how the World Cup came to be, the state of Peruvian football at that time and how they made the expedition to Montevideo from Lima.
