"As he is small, he fell very easily": Zambrano talked about the foul on Quispe in the classic.

"At the moment, one thinks that I could have pulled him, but those are things that are seen on the field. I hit him from the side, and because he is small, he fell very easily. If I had grabbed (Hernán) Barcos, maybe I wouldn't have moved him," said the defender of the blanquiazul team to the media.

On the other hand, the central defender of Alianza Lima confessed that he watched the match between Sporting Cristal and Nacional de Asunción, for the Copa Libertadores, and couldn't help but feel happy for the progress made by the league teams, as he believes that the teams in Liga 1 should support each other when playing an international tournament.

"I was very happy, and if it had been 'U', I would have been happy too, because in an international tournament, the important thing is that the Peruvian teams represent us well. Sporting Cristal played a great match, but they still have to play Phase 3; let's hope they win the next match," he added.

Salas revealed that he spoke with Zambrano after the expulsion

Guillermo Salas revealed that he had a conversation with Carlos Zambrano after the red card he received in the classic match between Alianza Lima and Universitario de Deportes, following a tough foul on Piero Quispe, in the final minutes of the match.

"I talked to Carlos Zambrano about the expulsion in the classic match. We handled it internally, but everything is fine and calm. These types of matches are very heated and a lot of things happened during the game. The good thing is that we have already talked and everything is fine," concluded the coach in dialogue with Golperu.
