The Peru women's national football team represents Peru in international women's football and is controlled by the Peruvian Football Federation (FPF) (Federación Peruana de Fútbol in Spanish) as a part of the CONMEBOL federation.
Peru's best result in major international competitions was in the 1998 Sudamericano Femenino, where they achieved third place.Peru also has never qualified for a World Cup and is almost always eliminated in the Group Stage of the Copa América Femenina. La Blanquirroja is coached by Emily Lima and plays the majority of its games in the Estadio Nacional.
History
On 1996 the Peruvian Peruvian Football Federation created the Peruvian Primera División Femenina[2][3] under de name of Metropolitan women's football championship (currently known as Liga Femenina). On that basis, in 1998 the federation gathered its very best players into a national team, whose first international appearance was the third South American Women's Football Championship played in Argentina, in which the team achieved third place.[4]
In the early 2000s, Peru gained fourth place in the 2003 South American Women's Football Championship on home soil and won the gold medal at the 2005 Bolivarian Games. The late 2010s saw a decline in Peruvian womens football, being eliminated in the group stage of the Copa America since 2003 and the same for the U-17 and U-20 team. In 2019, the team automatically qualified for the 2019 Pan American Games for the first time as hosts and placed 8th.
The Peruvian team has never qualified for a FIFA Women's World Cup and is almost always eliminated in the first round in the Copa América Femenina.
