Sporting Crystal brought joy to Peruvian football after progressing to the group stage of the 2023 Copa Libertadores. The “Celestes” defeated Huracán 1-0 at the National Stadium and got their ticket to the next instance of this competition, where they also beat Alianza Lima and FBC Melgar. Despite the Rimenses’ hype over the classification, there is also an uncertainty that the same coach Tiago Nunes reflected in his post-match statements.
It turns out that Sporting Crystal – at the moment – does not have a stadium to play its next home games in the Copa Libertadores. The Brewers cannot count on the National Stadium and Alberto Gallardo if they are to take part in the group stage. What is the reason?
Why can’t Cristal use Nacional?
Although Sporting Crystal played against Huracán at the National Stadium, he won’t be able to use it in the following matches, since José Díaz’s colossus will give spare parts for the U-17 World Cup that will take place between November 10th and December 2nd in our country Year . Improvements Nacional will receive include a modern drainage system, matching the sand surface to the fields and a hybrid field.

Why can’t Cristal use the Alberto Gallardo?
After the national stadium was excluded, the fans moved out Sporting Crystal if it is possible to play in Alberto Gallardo, the home ground of league 1. However, this option is ruled out because the sports colossus has no lighting for the cup games.
In which stadium will Sporting Cristal be able to play their games?
Faced with this situation, Sporting Cristal will have no other solution than to rent the Matute (Alianza Lima) or Monumental (Universitario de Deportes) stadiums. Both meet the standards required by CONMEBOL, the International Olympic Committee and FIFA. It must be remembered that the “compadres” will also take part in international tournaments (Libertadores and Sudamericana), so the “celestes” could also go to a provincial stadium such as Inca Garcilaso de la Vega (Cusco) or UNSA (Arequipa) Others.
