There are only five matches left for the Clausura Tournament to end and Universitario de Deportes must take advantage of each match to recover the top position in the standings and continue thinking about the 27th star.
However, the call-up of Alberto Quintero to the Panama National Team for the FIFA date comes as a shock to all 'cremas' as he will miss the match against UTC in Cajamarca, probably one of the toughest matches they have ahead.
It should be noted that Alejandro Hohberg could also be missing in that match due to a possible call-up to the Peruvian National Team. "We have a short squad. We trust the good judgment of the Peruvian Football Federation. We don't have reinforcements, it's a difficult situation for the club," said Raúl Leguía, administrator of the 'merengue' team, regarding the issue.
Universitario needs Alberto Quintero and Alejandro Hohnberg on the wings more than ever, without a top-quality '9'. Ángel Comizzo should already be thinking about the alternatives he will use after this news.
This Sunday, starting at 3:30 p.m., Universitario will face Deportivo Municipal at the Estadio Nacional. The match will be broadcast on GOLPERU, but you will have minute-by-minute updates and all the incidents on Depor.com.
