In the first match, the Peruvian team did not give a chance to Uruguay, who added its second knockdown without scoring a set so far in the tournament.

Peru, the last team to debut in the qualifiers, was inspired by Ángela Leyva who scored 13 points and led her teammates toward a 3-0 victory, with partial 25-16, 25-14, 25-19 .

Argentina went out to play against Chile with the hope of repeating the great performance shown in the opening game against Uruguay.

Uruguayan team could do little against the great power in the service and blocking of Argentina (11 and 8 points).

Argentina won partially with 25-5, 25-16 and 25-13, led by its captain Yamila Nizetich, the scorer of 15 points.

The hosts added their second triumph and now rest on Friday and then face Colombia on Saturday.
