Alliance Lima is already thinking about their next match for the Copa Libertadores, in which they will face Junior de Barranquilla this Thursday, April 19th. Regarding this, the goalkeeper Daniel Prieto has stated that if he has the opportunity under the goal, he is prepared to take on such a commitment.
In this regard, Prieto commented that: "Junior started poorly in the Copa, lost their two matches, changed coach. In their local tournament, they are relatively well. We always live with pressure, and I believe that this match will not be the exception, and we will go all out for the three points".
Furthermore, he highlighted that he is prepared to take on the challenge if the coach, Pablo Bengoechea, decides so: "It is an important challenge, as a football player, you want to demonstrate and play as much as possible, and the goalkeeper lives day by day where he can go from hero to villain or vice versa, he always has to be mentally prepared".
Alliance Lima is located in Group H of the Copa Libertadores, in which they hold the third position with only 1 point obtained in the draw in Lima against Boca Juniors and the 2-0 defeat against Palmeiras in Brazil. On the other hand, Junior de Barranquilla had a great campaign in the previous phase, but in terms of the group phase, they are currently last with zero points.
