Sporty Cristal lost 0-1 against Cienciano on the penultimate matchday of the Clausura tournament of League 1 2023. The light blue team took the lead with a goal in the 55th minute Yoshimar Yotun. However, following a VAR review, the goal was canceled due to a previous offside call by Ecuadorian Wahisngton Corozo.
This is the second goal that was not confirmed by the Rímac club. Brenner Marlos had previously scored a goal after Corozo was offside in the first half.
The Tiago Nunes-led side needed a win to move level with Universitario de Deportes at the top in the second competition of the season. However, this result left the Brewers with just 33 units left and are in fourth place in the championship.
