Alianza Lima lived a bizarre year: it descended to the second division in 2020 but appealed to the Arbitral Court of Sport (TAS) which ruled in its favor in March 2021 and returned it to the higher category when the first three dates of the tournament had already been played. .

Bustos, 55, took over at the helm of Alianza in January and formed a team of experienced players, such as compatriot Hernán Barcos and Peruvian international Jefferson Farfán, 37.

The return final was played with a capacity of 13,000 fans due to the coronavirus pandemic.
