Three days have passed, but in Huancayo they still talk about a mystery: if José Carvallo's gloves had some kind of magnet. Because there is no other way to explain what the '1' of Universitario de Deportes did at 3,259 meters above sea level.
He said no to Maldonado, Corrales, Neumann (2), Caraza, Bazán and Lliuya (2). If 'U' defeated 'Rojo Matador' last Saturday night, it was thanks to Hohberg's foot and, of course, 'San José's' hands.
The captain is at his best. That has made him being looked at again from Videna. Depor learned that the goalkeeper of Universitario de Deportes would be called up for the friendly matches of the Peruvian National Team against Uruguay in Montevideo and Lima, on October 11 and 15, respectively.
"One always has the illusion of being called up (against Uruguay), but that depends on the coaching staff," mentioned the cream goalkeeper in ESPN FC, a few days ago. And it seems that his wish has come true.
Now, what is 'U's position regarding the chance of having more than one called up player (they would not play against Boys and Sporting Cristal)? This is what Jean Ferrari, the club's sports manager, told Depor: "The Peruvian National Team is above everything. The fact that they call up players only reflects the good work that is being done," he confessed. José arrives motivated to the derby.
