Vaya partido el que escogió Emanuel Herrera para mostrar toda su dimensión como goleador. El '9' de Melgar estuvo endiablado ante Sporting Cristal y castigó al equipo de 'Chemo' del Solar con 3 golazos.

The Argentine striker was the standout performer of the game, scoring 3 great goals against the celestes.

His third goal came at minute 70, after seeing Carlos Grados off his line and beating him with a powerful long-range shot.

Sporting Cristal loses due to Revoredo's mistake, a penalty, and Herrera's goal.
