Alianza Lima loses 0-2 to Universitario de Deportes in the Peruvian football classic, this result shocked the entire blanquiazul community who saw their party organized in Matute ruined and now that emotional blow translates into something tangible, which are the results in this Clausura tournament. What is missing for Íntimos to continue fighting at the top?
Carlos Bustos, Alianza Lima's coach, lost for the first time against the rival classic and is in trouble in the Clausura tournament where now they are sixth in the table with 17 points, 4 points behind leaders Sporting Cristal and Atlético Grau. The blanquiazules did not budget for a defeat against Universitario and now they will have to come out with "teeth clenched" in their next games.
This Clausura tournament is one of the closest in recent years, six teams are fighting for the Clausura tournament and the points difference is very tight. In this context, Alliance Lima has the arduous mission of not falling anymore in the remaining matches of Liga 1. Giving up points is not part of the blanquiazules' plans, although the challenge is greater.
As of today, Alianza Lima has 10 matches left to play in this tournament and they must visit Lambayeque, Trujillo, Cusco, and Ayacucho. Meanwhile, they will host six opponents.
