Gabriel Costa shows respect for Alianza Lima: “It has hierarchy players”

Gabriel Costa, with a past in Peruvian football, is one of the most important players in Colo Colo in recent years. The winger, who wore Alianza Lima's jersey, referred to Wednesday's match for Copa Libertadores, within the framework of the second date of group F. The Peruvian national team also showed respect for the rival and highlighted some players. In addition, he talked about his good time.

“It has players of great hierarchy and experience such as Josepmir Ballón, Pablo Miguez, Hernán Barcos..., it will undoubtedly be a nice and entertaining match. I saw that Alianza defended well because River Plate came to him very little, but there will be time to analyze this match on Wednesday,” said the 32-year-old footballer in an interview with GOLPERU.

“I am really happy about the great time we are going through, but this is a matter of work, perseverance and wanting to live this moment. The team is well, orderly and with that harmony that every group always needs to give joy to the fans”, 'Gabi' commented on the beautiful moment that the club has in the local and international tournament.

In addition, he revealed that the match against the 'whites and blues' will be tough because both want to take the three points. “We are focused on doing things right this Wednesday against Alianza Lima, which will be a very difficult rival. It will undoubtedly be a very difficult cup match because two big teams will face each other and they will surely want to add away from home.”

Alianza Lima and Colo Colo will meet this Wednesday from 05:00pm (Peruvian time) as part of the second date of group F of the Copa Libertadores, where the Chileans and River Plate are the only ones with three points. This commitment will be played at the Monumental David Arellano stadium and will be able to count on both fans.

GABRIEL COSTA TALKED ABOUT THE PERUVIAN TEAM

Gabriel Costa was part of the Peruvian national team in almost the majority of the South American Qualifying process heading to Qatar 2022, but did not add up the expected minutes despite his good time in Chilean football. In total, he was only present in six games with 135 minutes on the court. He was part of Peru 2-0 Paraguay on the last date that defined the qualification for the repechage and the match where he was most present on the pitch was against Bolivia in La Paz.

“We are ready to face the national team that plays in the repechage. We are going to have an important margin to recover players. André Carrillo is a fundamental piece for the team,” he commented in the same interview.
