Universitario sets out for Brazil with the illusion of obtaining a good result against Corinthians and being able to define it in Lima, as the goal is to advance to the round of 16 of the Copa Sudamericana. In that context, Williams Riveros, one of the team's leaders, spoke up and did not hesitate to throw a powerful warning at 'Timao'.
PUEDES VER: Universitario worked on an impressive lineup to make an impact in Brazil against Corinthians
And it is that the Paraguayan defender assured the fans that whoever has to take the field, will give their all in order to celebrate after the final whistle. However, he emphasized that they are strong opponents, so they will pay close attention to every attack they propose.
"We know they are a very intense team, like all Brazilians, so we will work hard. The fans can rest assured that the team will give their all," he said in an interview for Radio Ovación.
With these words, it is clear that 'U' will play this match on equal terms, without speculating. Instead, they will try to make an impact away from home and show a great level, as they reflected in their last victory in the Liga 1 Betsson.
Finally, it is important to mention that this will be the first time that Universitario will play against Corinthians in an international tournament. Although the results in Brazil are not favorable for any Peruvian club, they will try to put that aside and surprise them.
When is Universitario vs. Corinthians?
Universitario vs. Corinthians will be played on Tuesday, July 11, starting at 19:00 hours, for the Copa Sudamericana playoffs.
