Hernán Barcos continues to make history Lima Alliance. Last Friday, the ‘Pirata’ became the new all-time foreign goalscorer for the small club by scoring his 38th goal in the blue and white jersey, one more than Brazilian Rosinaldo Lopes. On social networks, fans and even official Argentine media reports highlighted the veteran striker’s performance, although other characters linked to the La Victoria team such as e.g Waldir SaenzThey didn’t really care.
In the recent episode of the YouTube show Pressure, the former gamer was trolled by a subscriber who sent him a tip. “Today it’s time to talk about historic goalscorer Hernán Barcos,” read the follower’s message, clearly alluding to the public differences that Sáenz and Barcos have shown on more than one occasion.
However, both the Alliance idol and his other table companions took the comment with humor. Far from being angry, the former Alliance artilleryman contented himself with reacting indifferently. “Do you think I… care? I have other concerns, ‘Hand,'” he said.

How did the controversy between Waldir Sáenz and Hernán Barcos come about?
Throughout 2021, Waldir Sáenz made multiple comments about the allegedly bad relations between Barcos and other members of the intimate squad. The “pirate” said he came to meet the former soccer player but didn’t tell him anything. Since then, apart from a few sporadic taunts sent to each other, there has been a quiet tension between the two.
