One of the players who was absent from Alianza Lima for a few months was the right back Gino Peruzzi, who suffered an injury that kept him away from the field. Despite that, the Argentinian footballer showed great recovery and was able to play minutes in the last match against César Vallejo in the Clausura Tournament.

After his return, the player spoke to the cameras of ESPN and addressed various topics related to his current team. Among his statements, one of the most notable was his opinion on the current situation that Alianza Lima has been going through, as the 'Blanquiazules' have not won a game in four rounds in the Liga 1.
"We try to stay away. Obviously, we hear those things. We have a squad with a lot of experience and we know how to handle it. We lost points and it hurts us, we want to win, we go out to win in every field, in every match. It didn't go our way and our rivals are strong, they are not losing so many points, that's why they have this advantage over us, but I think there is still a long way to go", he commented.
He also expressed that despite the poor results, the team from La Victoria can still compete for the title. "We know that we can't lose any more to keep fighting in the Clausura, but we are very calm. There is no crisis here, the group is united. We were hurt at the moment of 'Chicho's' departure because it is not something nice, he didn't deserve it, but it was a decision by the management."
Peruzzi grateful for Guillermo Salas' work
"They decided it was the best. We are grateful to him and his coaching staff because we have achieved important things. We have to turn the page and continue, but as I said: there is no crisis. We are united and confident. We know the squad we have and we can fight.", he declared.
