Despite the victory that Sporting Cristal achieved against Cesar Vallejo in Trujillo, Mariano Soso's team is not doing well in this final stretch of the Apertura Tournament. First, Universitario de Deportes left them wanting to continue fighting for the first tournament of the year. Now, the Celestes have suffered the loss of Alfredo Ramua, who joins the list of injured players along with Carlos Lobaton, Gabriel Costa, Diego Penny, Horacio Calcaterra, and Irven Avila.
Pese a la victoria que consiguió Sporting Cristal against César Vallejo in Trujillo, the Mariano Soso team is not doing well in this last stretch of the Torneo Apertura: first, Universitario de deportes left them wanting to continue fighting to win the first tournament of the year. Now, the celestes suffered the absence of Alfredo Ramúa, who joins the list of injured players along with Carlos Lobatón, Gabriel Costa, Diego Penny, Horacio Calcaterra and Irven Ávila.
Alfredo Ramúa came off the field at 36' in the match against César Vallejo and, as 'Depor' found out, the Sporting Cristal midfielder has a sprained right ankle, which prevented him from walking normally.
The injury contracted by the Sporting Cristal player was wrapped and will be evaluated in the next few hours by the club's medical staff, who will then give a precise diagnosis of the rest days and rehabilitation that Alfredo Ramúa will have to undergo.
With Alfredo Ramúa, Sporting Cristal added its fifth injured player. While Irven Ávila will undergo surgery for an injury to his big toe on his left foot and would be left out of the final call-up for the tournament to be played in the United States (his recovery will take 3 and a half weeks), Gabriel Costa is recovering from a complete rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament of his right knee that he suffered in the match against Peñarol, for example.
Sporting Cristal suffered the absence of important players in the final stretch of the Torneo Apertura, in which it was left without the option of continuing to fight for it after being defeated by Universitario de Deportes at the Estadio Nacional.
Now, Sporting Cristal aims to recover its most influential players to aim for the Torneo Clausura and, consequently, the national title under the guidance of Mariano Soso, who is still questioned for the poor results obtained in the Copa Libertadores.
