Despite being one of the most questioned players of Sporting Cristal during the first weeks of the year, Brenner has managed to win over the celestial fans. In fact, the forward recently scored the 2-2 draw against Mannucci at the Alberto Gallardo Stadium.
This goal would end up being of vital importance for Cristal, who would achieve victory in the last minutes thanks to another great goal from Brenner. In this way, the team is among the top of the table.
It is important to note that the penalty was initially disputed by the members of 'Tricolor', since it was not clear who had committed the foul. However, the replay clearly showed a push against defender Ignácio da Silva in the area.
