Although the official announcement of Sporting Cristal's new alternate jersey has not yet been made, there are those who are already starting to give details of what this attire will be like throughout the current season.

Everything indicates that Sporting Cristal's new jersey will be worn today, Tuesday, April 12, in the match against Universidad Católica in the Copa Libertadores. If so, there is a very curious story that the celestial fans cannot ignore.

In 1990, Sporting Cristal visited the Estadio San Carlos de Apoquindo to face Universidad Católica in the Copa Libertadores. That year, the "rimenses" wore their white alternate attire, generating confusion for being similar to the home team's one.

In light of this incident, journalist Luis Jara indicated that Universidad Católica loaned their red alternate attire to the Sporting Cristal team. This way, the match took place with the white jersey for the Chilean team, while the "rimenses" wore their rival's alternate jersey.

What was the result? To the regret of Sporting Cristal, Universidad Católica won this match 2-0, leaving the "cervecero" team empty-handed.
