He opened the goal. Janio Posito scored his first goal with Alianza Lima in the match against Ayacucho FC for the second round of the Summer Tournament. The forward opened the scoring and put the blanquiazul team ahead in the altitude of the Municipal Stadium in Huanta.
In the 27th minute of the first half, Rinaldo Cruzado appeared with a powerful long-range shot, which was saved by goalkeeper Gianfranco Castellanos. However, the rebound fell to Posito, who sent it in with a header.

Janio Posito, 28 years old, had a great season last year with Sport Rosario. He was the top scorer of his team with 12 goals in 35 matches as a starter and finished fifth in the top scorers' table of the tournament, which was led by Irven Ávila with 22.
Note that out of those 12 goals, nine were scored in high-altitude cities: six in Huaraz and one each in Cusco, Cutervo, and Ayacucho, respectively. A valuable average for Alianza Lima, considering that there are eight high-altitude teams in 2018.
