The forward did not waste the opportunity he had from the penalty spot in the 85th minute of the second half and with a powerful shot broke the goalkeeper Tomas Durso's goal, despite him diving into the same area.

Now, back in Lima after the great victory at Gimnasia's home, Succar took the opportunity to reveal the strategy he carried out with Williams Riveros before the penalty kick.

Before Alexander took the penalty, Riveros was the one who took the ball and stood at the shooting spot, to divert attention away from the cream forward and receive all the pressure himself, so that his teammate could shoot without any problems.

"We knew they were going to go after the ball, so we did it to not get distracted," said Succar to La Republica. In addition, the forward also confessed that Martin Perez Guedes was the first to tell him about this strategy. "That's how things turned out. We worked together," he concluded.
