Risky decision: Pablo Bengoechea evaluates Alianza Lima's options
Pablo Bengoechea knows that Alianza Lima no longer has options in the Copa Libertadores and is considering the possibility of taking some players who do not normally play with the team for the match against Boca Juniors at 'La Bombonera' next Wednesday.
"The ideal would be to arrive rested for the match against Sport Rosario. We will see if we can leave some players here. We want to start the Apertura well, but we are clear that we have to defend Alianza's image internationally," said the Uruguayan coach.
Alianza Lima announced 'Ronaldinho in the Neighborhood': find out all the details.
Bengoechea feels that now the priority for the 'Íntimos' is the local tournament and that is why they will try to quickly forget their discreet participation in the current edition of the Copa Libertadores, but that does not mean that they are thinking of giving Boca an easy match.
Alianza Lima knows that the results did not accompany them in the international tournament and that in order to recover the support of the fans, they will have to work hard in the restart of the Peruvian championship.
Alianza Lima will finish last in their group in the Copa Libertadores, where they have one point remaining in the final match. However, the blanquiazules hope to end their participation in a good way when they visit 'La Bombonera' against a needy Boca Juniors.
