Alianza Lima suffered a harsh blow after losing 1-2 to Libertad of Paraguay in a match corresponding to the third round of the 2023 Copa Libertadores. Although the 'team of the people' had many advantages, they were not taken advantage of and now their place in the round of 16 of the tournament is in jeopardy.
Without a doubt, this has generated various reactions and mostly criticism. One of the most targeted was Guillermo Salas, as many point out that he could not make a good plan against the 'Gumarelos', and another was Christian Cueva, who until now has not shown the level that many fans expected.
In this way, Aldo Olcese was straightforward and did not hold back against 'Aladino', considering that he was not even considered by 'Chicho' to be on the field from the initial whistle. "He is not even fit for the Peruvian national team," said the former national player during 'A Presión' program.
Undoubtedly, this comment from 'Chato' was accompanied by the other panelists, who also questioned the '10' of the Peruvian national team because he has played several minutes since his return to the club of his loves and he still does not resemble the player he is in the 'team of all'. That is why everyone came to the point that if he continues in those conditions, he should not be called up by Juan Reynoso.
Finally, it should be noted that Christian Cueva arrived at Alianza Lima on loan until the end of August of the current season. After that date, the intimate club must meet with Al Fateh of Saudi Arabia, who owns his pass, and only then reach an agreement if they want to continue counting on the midfielder for a longer period of time.
When does Alianza Lima play in the Copa Libertadores?
Alianza Lima will play in the Copa Libertadores on the next Tuesday, June 6 against Atlético Mineiro, at 19:00 hours, in the Alejandro Villanueva Stadium.
