Alianza Lima crowned champion of the Apertura Tournament
Alianza Lima was crowned champion of the Apertura Tournament after beating Binacional 6-1 and will now seek to close this first part of the local competition in the best possible way. While several players were happy with this achievement, on the other hand, Hernán Barcos took it calmly and did not hesitate to send a strong message to those who questioned Guillermo Salas and Christian Cueva.

The 'Pirate' was firm in mentioning that a big club will always be in the spotlight of everyone and anyone can be exposed in this situation. However, he wanted to clarify that the team is very strong and anything said outside doesn't bother them.
"In Alianza, they will always want to talk about one, about another, try to destabilize. Today it's 'Chicho's' turn, it was Cueva's turn, tomorrow it'll be my turn. When you are in a big club, you are exposed to all this, you have to know how to handle it internally, know the role of each one, that doesn't affect us inside. What they say outside doesn't affect us, neither the good nor the bad," he commented in an interview with Radio Ovación.
And as we saw weeks ago, there were several fans who criticized 'Chicho' after the defeat against Libertad in the Copa Libertadores and also 'Aladino', who is still having a hard time reaching his best version. That's why the Argentine forward took the blame and spoke up for both of them.
Finally, it is worth mentioning that Hernán Barcos has lost his starting position this season at Alianza Lima, but whenever he plays he usually scores or ends up being decisive in the good results they have achieved to win the first part of the Liga 1.
When does Alianza Lima play?
Alianza Lima will play this Friday, June 2 against ADT, starting at 20:00 hours, in the city of Tarma.
