Alex Valera and his self-criticism: “I am indebted to the ‘U’, I wanted to score more goals this year”

University is nearing the end of the season and has been leaving a good sporting image, which came from the hand of coach Gregorio Pérez. The performance of the squad has changed noticeably and Alex Valera has been one of the most outstanding players in recent months.

The Peruvian striker is going through an important scoring streak and was key in the victory against Cusco FC this Saturday, although he made it clear that he feels indebted to the club. “I’m happy for the win, the truth is that they were three important points for us”, He explained to Gol Peru after the match.

Later, the footballer showed his self-criticism with his performance. “My goal was closed for many games, but I never stopped being there, I was always training well, working hard for the team. If he did not score a goal, he was looking to give assists. The important thing is that now I’m scoring, I’m on a roll and I want to continue like this”, He highlighted.

Let us remember that before his return goal scorer with Universitario, Alex Valera added seven games in a row without being able to celebrate, although he managed to provide two qualifications for his teammates to convert. After that bad moment, on October 23 he uncovered with a hat-trick against Alianza Universidad de Huánuco and since then he has added seven goals in five presentations.

“I want to finish the season well with the ‘U’ and I am still in debt. There is a pending match to be able to secure the Copa Libertadores. I wanted to score many more goals, but I’m doing my best to enter the year well”, Highlighted the 25-year-old attacker, who is even considered in the Peruvian national team.

The goal scored by Alex Valera this weekend keeps Universitario in third place in the standings with 43 points and a combination of results could confirm the classification to the top club competition for 2022. If not, they will have to get a good result against Melgar on the last date.
