The Peruvian National Team Needs a Forward to Replace Gianluca Lapadula

The Peruvian national team needs a forward to replace Gianluca Lapadula when he retires since Ruidíaz, Valera, and Ormeño have not responded as expected so far. In this context, Sebastien Pineau, a Peruvian-Chilean forward, scored a brace in the Reserve Tournament semifinals between Alianza Lima and Melgar, but the Chilean national team has already called him up.

The Alianza Lima forward scored the equalizer and then the second goal in the 3-3 draw, which Alianza Lima won on penalties against Melgar from Arequipa. With this result, the blanquiazules will play in the championship final against the winner of Sport Huancayo vs. Ayacucho, and the champion will give two points to the first team in the overall standings, while the runner-up will receive one point.

However, the most surprising aspect of the match was the performance of the Alianza Lima forward, who scored the first goal in a determined manner, after forcing the Arequipa defense to save several attempts until the ball finally entered the net.

The second goal by Sebastien Pineau was more elaborate, with a great team play that ended up at the attacker's feet. He didn't hesitate and exquisitely placed the ball into the far post, leaving the goalkeeper with no chance and causing the blanquiazules' celebration.

As mentioned earlier, Pineau has been called up by the Chilean U-20 national team, and Peru is slowly losing him, so they must step up their efforts. Remember that the player has a Peruvian mother, a French father, and was born in the southern land, so he can even play alongside Kylian Mbappé if he excels enough.

Finally, Gustavo Roverano himself revealed the reason why the 'Peruvian Cavani' decided to play for Chile. "He had to play wherever he wanted, with us or with Chile. I told him: I cannot promise you anything, no coach can promise you anything. I cannot promise something that I don't know if I can fulfill, this is something you earn day by day," he said.
