Alliance Lima's Successful Season
Alliance Lima has another reason to celebrate with the victory against Binacional, as it not only continues to compete in the Clausura and secures a spot in the final of the Liga 1, but it is also the Peruvian club with the most national finals in the 21st century. Mauricio Larriera's team continues to strengthen with each match and hopes to add another trophy to its collection.

October started off great for Alliance Lima after winning against Binacional at high altitude, a club that takes advantage of its home advantage but was surpassed by a shining Hernán Barcos tonight.

Additionally, Alliance Lima fondly remembers the year 2017 because in that season they won the national title directly by dominating the Apertura and Clausura. The same scenario could unfold in 2023 if the Íntimos de La Victoria win this second phase of the Liga 1, considering they already won the first phase.
However, not everything has been shining for Alliance Lima in this statistic because out of the 11 finals they have played, they have won 5, lost 5, and the current year's final is pending. They lost to Universitario, Juan Aurich, Binacional, and Sporting Cristal.
