Last weekend, the Peruvian soccer classic was played. Alianza Lima and Universitario met once again, but this time at the National Stadium. The creams won by the smallest difference thanks to the score of Andy Polo, who with a great individual play managed to beat Franco Saravia, who was then sent off for fouling Rivera.
Everyone in Universitario played a good game, especially their goalkeeper, Sebastián Britos, who with a couple of good intentions managed to drown out ‘Compadre”s goal cry, however, he also had a couple of mistakes, which due to an injury were they gave, but it didn’t hurt the team.
As was seen on Saturday, Alianza was left with 9 players, due to the expulsions of Ramos and Saravia, however, the ‘intimates’ continued looking for the tie and they achieved it, Hernán Barcos was able to equalize the match, but the play was annulled by the VAR, because he was offside.
Given this, Sebastián Britos comments from his ‘point of view, how he saw the team when they were numerically superior in the final minutes. “We fell back very far when they were with 9 and we lost unnecessary balls when we had to rotate the ball”declared for RPP.
Later, he referred to his bad starts during the classic: “The first bad start was due to a shoulder injury. I’m also getting used to the ball. It’s different from the one I played with.”he concluded.
