Alianza Lima was close to conceding a goal in the match against Melgar from Arequipa, 30 minutes into the first half. However, an excellent reaction from goalkeeper Daniel Prieto gave a sigh of relief to the Alinza Lima fans present at the Garcilaso del Cusco stadium.
Midfielder Víctor Cedrón, who has a history with Alianza Lima, took a free kick from the left. When everyone, including Prieto, expected a cross, 'Vican' aimed at the goal.
Despite the goalkeeper's intervention, referee Joel Alarcón called a goal kick for Alianza Lima. It was the most dangerous play of the first half of the match between Alianza Lima and Melgar from Arequipa for the third round of the Torneo Apertura.
The team led by Uruguayan coach Pablo Bengechea needs the victory to reach the top spot in the Torneo Apertura standings. Meanwhile, the team led by Juan Reynoso is looking for their first win in the tournament.
