Jefferson Farfan will miss Peru's final World Cup group match after suffering a "traumatic brain injury" on Saturday.
The Lokomotiv Moscow forward, 33, was unconscious for "a couple of minutes" after colliding with a team-mate in training and he remains in hospital.
Concussion protocols mean Farfan cannot play against Australia on Tuesday, although Peru cannot reach the last 16.
"It was a scare but he is doing well. The most important thing is he is recovering," said coach Ricardo Gareca.
