A fundamental piece in Álvaro Gutiérrez's scheme was confirmed at the last minute at Universitario de Deportes. Alex Valera recovered from his discomfort in the thigh and is no longer a doubt for the Peruvian football classic against Alianza Lima. The striker, also considered in the Peruvian national team, will start this Sunday as part of the tenth date of the 2022 League 1 Apertura Tournament.
As could be seen in training this Saturday, the footballer trained normally alongside his teammates and was included in the eleven that the Uruguayan strategist has been testing to play against the 'intimates'. This discomfort that the player had came from the duel against Ayacucho FC on the last date of the Peruvian tournament, where the 'merengues' won agonistically by 2-1.
Remember that both teams need to score three points in the standings to climb places. Those led by the 'charrua' are fifth with 16 points at the moment and the leader is Deportivo Municipal with 20 units. On the other hand, the 'whites and blues' are placed in box 13 with eight points.
In this way, the likely starting eleven for this weekend will be with: José Carvallo in the goal; a line of four with Aldo Corzo, Federico Alonso, Nelinho Quina, Nelson Cabanillas; the frills Angel Cayetano and Gerson Barreto and Piero Quispe; while at the top will be played by Andy Polo, Alberto Quintero and Alex Valera.
The centre-forward has five goals in the season and is the top scorer for Universitario de Deportes. He scored two to ADT in Tarma, one to the Cesar Vallejo University, one to the San Martín University and another to the Cantolao Sports Academy. In addition, let us remember that he scored two goals against Jamaica and Panama at the beginning of the year with the 'blanquirroja'.
Both squads will meet at the Monumental de Ate stadium from 3:00pm (Peruvian time) and will have 57,000 tickets enabled for local fans. The match, to be played within the framework of the tenth date of the 2022 League 1 Apertura Tournament, will be broadcast on the GOLPERU channel. The one in charge of delivering justice will be Kevin Ortega, who has already directed classics.
APPROVED INSTRUMENTS AND FLAGS
Jean Ferrari, temporary administrator of Universitario de Deportes, revealed through his Twitter account that instruments and banners will be allowed in the Monumental stadium. “The party with music, great work of our security team led by Commander Carlos Peralta!” , he wrote accompanied by a photo of the resolution.
“Authorize the entry of the following objects to the Monumental stadium: 3 drums, 3 murgas, 1 chime, 1 drum, 2 left-handed people, 1 flag with the inscription 'Northern trenchera' and 01 flag with the inscription 'Yesterday, today and always Universitario a national feeling'”, can be read in the document.
