With the so-called “Gareca Era”, Peruvians have stepped up their support for the Peruvian national team and all those who are part of it. In the case of our country, the phrase “not only do they play eleven on the court” is true, since the whole territory accompanies them during the 90 minutes, regardless of the final result. We are experts in encouraging and transmitting unconditional support through chants, posters, rallies and other expressions. It is clear why they consider us one of the best fans in the world.
Over the years, some definitions have appeared that the fans themselves have given to describe the passion for the sport that dominates the country. One of them is related to Christian Cueva, known as the 'Aladdin' of the bicolor. It is enough to see it in action to confirm the magic that it carries in its body and that it complements its teammates.
WHAT IS “CUEVISM”?
This curious term does not have an official description in the Royal Spanish Academy (RAE), but it is part of the popular definitions. We managed to interpret it as a belief, support and respect for what this player does. Those who join this group of followers can be defined as loyal followers of their career and what they can do with the ball.
Columnist Fabrizio Ricalde wrote in 2021 an entry on the Sudaca platform in which he defines in his own way what this new phenomenon is in Peruvian football. “I am Cuevista. I define myself in football as a follower of Cueva, Cuevism. I think it's a new word to be invented in the national and Latin American football vocabulary.”

CHRISTIAN CUEVA AND HIS RECORD WITH THE PERUVIAN NATIONAL TEAM
How important has this Peruvian player been in the history of the national team? Sports analyst Jesús Chirinos (They are data, not opinions on Twitter) explained that Cueva is in the top 5 scorers since the arrival of Ricardo Gareca. Until his last stay on the court, his activity under the command of the 'Tiger' leaves him ahead of players such as André Carillo and Jefferson Farfan.
In addition, he is the one who has set a great record between scoring and assists in the minutes played. If we talk about historical figures, the Trujillo enters the list with 11 entries, beating Claudio Pizarro, Edison Flores and Oscar Gómez Sánchez.
