Oscar Del Portal became the protagonist of a new controversy after Alianza Lima's victory over Carlos A. Mannucci in the final of the 2022 Women's League. This match, which gave the blanquiazules the bicampeonato, was played with a record attendance at the Alejandro Villanueva stadium, where his colleague Talia Azcarate was located as a correspondent for DirecTV Sports.
In his program "De fútbol se habla así", during a link with the reporter, the journalist asked a question that generated discomfort among Alianza fans, as it was interpreted as an attempt to minimize the achievement and even suggest alleged favoritism.
"The question is as follows. I say it with a lot of respect. I don't want to take away the joy from the people of Alianza, it's not my intention, but was everything done for Alianza Lima to become champion?", the presenter questioned.

Azcárate managed to respond that, although Alianza did the merits to win the championship, a single match definition, as planned from the beginning, would have favored Mannucci. "Obviously," added Del Portal to express his agreement with this opinion.
