After the 18th matchday of the Clausura tournament, Universitario was the only leader in this second part of the championship and has a great chance of winning the Clausura. The Creams saved a guest point against Cienciano. After the game, the student delegation and the coach arrived in the capital Jorge Fossati He was approached by the press at Jorge Chávez Airport.
The experienced strategist spoke about the planning of the penultimate and final appointment and contradicted that it happened that way. Fossati stated that he had figured it out about the need to play the 19th matchday at the same time because a club playing at home and fighting for the Clausura “has no lights in its stadium”.
“The truth is that I understand less and less. Of the five involved, I won’t even name them because it’s not about anything personal, it’s just common sense, we all have to play at 3:00 p.m. because there is one of them who plays at home and doesn’t do this . “There are lights in the stadium (Sporting Cristal), and it’s not everyone else’s fault,” he told the press.

In addition, the Uruguayan coach also highlighted his Disagreement about everyone playing at the same time just because a team ranked first has a minimal chance to win the Clausura. The DT expressed his wish that the last date should not be played like that and that “common sense prevails”.
“That on the one hand, but that being said, it’s not the first or the second or the third or the fourth, it’s the fifth in the dispute (regarding ADT). I insist, and with all due respect to this institution, that they are not. They decide what they do. You have a one in a million chance. The other four can’t even keep up to give them a chance. So for that millionth part, they set the date for us at 3:00 p.m.,” he explained.
