Aldair Rodriguez was expelled after a terrible foul on Robert Rojas in Alianza Lima vs. River Plate for Copa Libertadores 2022

Alianza Lima played with River Plate in home condition as part of the first day of group F for the 2022 Copa Libertadores. The situation was going uphill for the 'blue and white' team, as it lost 1 to 0 at the National Stadium. In that sense, with the intention of going to look for the tie, Aldair Rodríguez put a heavy pressure on the visiting defense, but came in more than enough to commit a terrible foul against Robert Rojas and end up being expelled a few minutes from the end.

The action took place in 86 minutes, but just a few minutes earlier, Rodriguez himself made a powerful shot that correctly diverted Argentine goalkeeper Franco Armani to the corner kick. The 'intimate' ensemble was about to advance its lines to match the actions, until the unthinkable came.
