A tense moment marked the end of the last Clásico del Sur between Melgar and Cienciano, this Friday on the 12th date of the Liga 1 Opening Tournament. Paolo Hurtado lost his temper with Paolo Reyna and was sent off. Then the mistiano player also saw the red.

After entering the final stretch to look for the draw from Cusco, the popular ‘Caballito’ exceeded the mark and unloaded against the red and black player, slapping him, a victim of frustration and impotence in the discounts of the commitment.
Reyna faced the former Alianza Lima soccer player and they both said everything. The referee first sent Hurtado to the showers and after talking with his assistant he decided to do the same with the side.
Hot Ending!
