César Vallejo faced Cusco FC on date 6 of the Apertura Tournament of League 1 2024

Historic day in Peruvian football. This Saturday, March 2, Universidad César Vallejo hosted Cusco FC for date 6 of the 2024 Apertura Tournament and Paolo Guerrero, top scorer of the national team, made his debut as a starter. It only took two minutes for the ‘Predator’ to score his first goal in League 1.

Guerrero Gonzales, with only six training sessions with his teammates, was chosen by his coach Roberto Mosquera to start actions at the Mansiche stadium in Trujillo and was even named captain due to his hierarchy. The 40-year-old veteran gunner only needed one touch to rewrite his name in the history of the ‘king sport’ in the Inca country.

When the clock marked just two minutes of the initial stage in the sports venue of the ‘city of eternal spring’, the hosts made a brilliant collective play that led to the conquest of ‘PG9′.

The play began with a possession by midfielder Josepmir Ballón, who quickly gave the ball to defender Carlos Ascues. The ‘Boss’ controlled the ball and it didn’t take long for him to give up the round. He sent a pass, between the lines and forward, to midfielder Gerson Barreto.

The former Sports University turned and filtered a good service behind the left back of the ‘imperials’, José Zevallos. The one who appeared behind the defender and took the ball was UCV’s historic scorer, the Colombian Yorleys Mena. On this occasion ‘Yoyo’ decided not to shoot at the goal, but rather, with total selflessness, he gave Paolo Guerrero an unbeatable opportunity to score his first goal in Peruvian football.

The famous ‘center of death’ found Paolo completely alone and perfectly positioned, who opened his foot noticeably and scored with a low shot that left rival goalkeeper Andy Vidal with no chance. As soon as the sphere touched the ‘golden’ net, the former LDU from Quito celebrated in a moderate manner and recognized the kindness of Yorleys Mena in his target. Most of his colleagues from the ‘poet’ team came to celebrate with the Chorrillano and embraced each other. Finally, scorer and assistant returned to the center circle of the field showing affection. The excitement in a Mansiche full of fans was total.

It should be remembered that this was neither the first game nor the first goal that Paolo Guerrero scored in this stadium. However, he did not do it with a team, but with the ‘blanquirroja’, but it has been seven years now. It was in a friendly between the ‘bicolor’ and their counterpart from Paraguay on June 8, 2017. On that occasion he scored with a superb free kick and achieved the 1-0 victory.

‘Paolín’ showed off his validity despite the inactivity he had been suffering since leaving the Quito League. The last time he had stepped on the court officially was in December 2023 in the second leg final against Independiente del Valle.
