Start of the Championship
The controversial match at the beginning of the championship was the one won by Sporting Cristal against Alianza Lima, since Tiago Nunes' team achieved the three points by a Walk Over, because the albos decided not to show up at the Alberto Gallardo Stadium due to the dispute over television rights.

And after several months, former footballer Waldir Sáenz referred to this issue, highlighting that these three points won by the celestials have not helped them to be in a better position in the championship table.
In addition, he recommended the players of the cervecero team never to spit in the air when it comes to these matters, especially given the circumstances at that time.
"And the match against Sporting Cristal? TAS has not yet responded, well, those three points were not enough for Sporting Cristal to qualify, right? Do you know why I say this now, because they should never spit at the sky, I say it in a good way. You can't mock a walk over, knowing the circumstances that were there", he said on A Presión.

Alianza Lima is awaiting the response from TAS
Anyway, it is important to remember that Alianza Lima filed a complaint with TAS for this match against Sporting Cristal, as they have requested that this match be rescheduled for matchday 3 of the Torneo Apertura.
