Universitario de Deportes reaches this commitment to full morale after coming back and beating on the hour by 2-1 Ayacucho FC at the Ciudad de Cumaná Stadium. The goals of Hernán Novick and Andy Polo made all the fans of the 'U' vibrate. In addition, they reached 16 points and are still alive in the fight for the first place of the tournament.
“We are evaluating what type of system we are going to use. I have always said that I try to adapt to the characteristics of my players and those of the rival. Luckily, we've played with different systems before and we've even varied within the match to different tactical themes. And sometimes it has worked for us,” said the coach of the merengues Alvaro Gutiérrez in the pre-classic.
“I think Alianza is a big team, with a great squad. And while its power is not reflected in the standings, in a classic that dissipates completely. It's my first time directing a classic in Peru, but it's not my first time directing classics,” the coach of Universitario de Deportes added at a press conference.
