Last Saturday, Universitario beat Atlético Grau 2-0 and still have dreams of winning the Clausura tournament. Although the Cremes’ victory was thanks to goals from Alberto Quinteros and Hernán Novick, it also had to see the encouragement of the 50,000 fans who descended on the Monumental Stadium to witness the victory on day 12 of the second competition of the year.
The massive fan presence in the Ate colossus was highlighted not only by fans and sports media, but also by footballers from other clubs. A former Alianza Lima player was amazed at the thousands of people who filled the four stands.
This is the current Deportivo Municipal attacker, Roberto Ovelar, who took to his social networks to highlight the number of fans who have taken over the Monumental facilities. “Tell me if the fans don’t make the team great, 50,000 people support their team. What a beauty!” he wrote on his Twitter account.

Uni fans complain about Alianza Lima’s support
Alianza Lima controversially won 2-1 against Carlos Stein for League 1 and is still in contention for the final tournament. After the game, a Universitario fan, wearing the jersey of the Carlist team, complained about the support the Victorian team received in Jaén and caused a lot of mockery on social media.
When is the next college game?
After beating Atlético Grau, Universitario meets Alianza Atlético in Piura next Friday, September 30 at 1:30 p.m. Due to the commitment of the Peruvian team (September 24th and 27th), the date 13 has been postponed by two weeks.
