Shamans in Peru performed a ritual before their national football team's World Cup playoff against Australia. The decider is being played in Qatar's Al Rayyan stadium on 13 June.

The shamans, hailing from the mountains, jungle and coast, all gathered to perform the ritual, which they believe will help Peru beat Australia. 'We have had to give reinforcement and strength to continue to get the end result we want,' said shaman Ana María Simeon.
