2023 was the year of the sports university. The first-class team became national champions in both men's and women's football by defeating none other than their classic rivals Alianza Lima in the final. The enormous anticipation that Jorge Fossati's team had generated throughout the season was reflected in the interaction of its fans, making internet queries about the student team one of the most searched terms.
In its annual report, the company reports on the most important searches in our country Google revealed that the question “How is the U?” It was ranked among the top 10 most frequently asked questions with that starting word.
“Revolt for Universitario! The top team not only won League 1, but also: 'How is the U doing?' “It was one of the top search terms in 2023 on Google Peru. Congratulations to the champion for another achievement!”, says the official account of the popular search engine.

The team that topped this statistic was MLS's Inter Miami, who added Lionel Messi to their squad midway through the year. The excitement over the arrival of the “flea” had a global impact, as the group of herons became the most searched sporting object, according to Google Trends.
