Guillermo Salas won in his debut as DT in the classics, specifically pointing out why Alianza was superior to the ‘U’.
The classic in between Alliance of Lima and Universitario de Deportes ended in a 2-1 win for the Blue and Whites, in a game that ranged from great goals like that of Pablo Sabbag to the ejection of Carlos Zambrano, who put the cold cloths on him and justified the red card, received after a foul on Piero Quispe. Another to talk about the win was Guillermo Salas, the DT of the intimate, speaking to the media in the mixed zone before retiring from the Monumental Stadium.
The game against the Creams marked “Chicho’s” debut as a coach in the Peruvian Classics. The strategist was delighted and explained why his coaches ended up getting the three points against the “compadre”.
“I’d like to congratulate the squad of players in general. They’ve all been upright and supportive. These games are won that way. I’m very happy. It was a tough rivalry and the ‘U’ isn’t the same as last year. It’s a Complicated side that make themselves felt at home. We won them because those we had scored. We scored the goals at the right moment and that reassured us,” said Guillermo Salas.
“We were able to score a few more goals, but unfortunately we didn’t make it. This is soccer. They also had their chances,” added the Alianza Lima coach.
