"It was truly a beautiful season for all of us. We had a lot of confidence in the squad: great Apertura, great Clausura, and ended with a huge party. Let the Alianza fan enjoy it. It makes me happy to see so many happy people. I am grateful for the opportunity to work here with the players, who are the key to achieving important things," he added.

Lastly, the former coach of the Peruvian National Team highlighted the humility and serious work they had throughout the season.

"When we won, we didn't believe ourselves to be better than anyone else. After victory or defeat, you have to work, you have to prepare for the next match, and that's what we did," he concluded.
