Lima Alliance I received Melgar in Matute with the obligation to add three, once morest a direct rival, to continue dreaming of the possibility of winning the Closing Tournament. The pending meeting on date 6 was decided in just two minutes.
It was by far Alianza Lima’s best start to the season. Speed with high pressure that forced Melgar to miss passes. The first goal was with a good collective action that Pablo Lavandeira finished (5′), with a header, for 1-0.
Just a minute later Hernán Barcos was enabled for a pass from Lavandeira, reversing roles with respect to the first goal. The Argentine striker advanced a few meters, took out a rival with a hook and put the final 2-0. The next Alianza meeting will be on Wednesday, September 28, once morest San Martín.
