Universitario de Deportes has had a great reaction in the Clausura Tournament and this Sunday will have the possibility of getting fully involved in the fight for first place: they must beat Sporting Cristal (3:30 p.m.), the leader of the table. The match generates great expectation and the cream fans decided to encourage their players with a spectacular flag-waving.
On the night of last Saturday, a large number of fans arrived at the concentration of 'U', equipped with banners, musical instruments, and fireworks. Immediately, all the people identified with the institution of Ate began to sing in unison.
The fireworks gave a striking color to the scene, while the flags waved to the rhythm of the music. Shortly after, Universitario shared a video on social networks with a message of gratitude to their fans: "This is the 'Merengue' fans. The most beloved and popular club. Always with you, fighting together."
In this way, with motivation at its peak, the team led by Carlos Compagnucci will take the field at the Estadio Nacional in search of a new victory. Remember that the 'Cremas' have accumulated eight consecutive matches without losing (six wins and two draws) and will try to end Sporting Cristal's undefeated streak in the Clausura Tournament.
