Monumental.
José Rivera, however, is not a youth born from the quarries or a bet on the future. This May 8th he will be 26 years old and although it is his first experience in a big club, his long journey has taken him to clubs such as Unión Comercio, Cusco FC and Carlos A. Mannucci.
He is right-handed, intent and knows how to position himself to ask for the ball. Skillful, physical and intelligent. He is also supportive of the brand. He lacks a goal, yes. But he’s on it. Against Sporting Cristal he had the mission of replacing Urruti and Valera. He did quite well, with a run, a lot of work and a lot of dedication.
They say that a confident player is capable of raising his performance significantly. It seems to be the reference in the University since Jorge Fossati arrived. All big bets work. Since his arrival, he spent with Piero Quispe, relegated to the bench with Compagnucci; but become the main manager of the game in cream offense. It also happened with Emanuel Herrera, who with Fossati broke out and won the title. Riveros is another of the great samples. Before the Uruguayan, after an unassertive start, the Paraguayan has established himself as one of the pillars in the cream defense.
Alexander Succar is another faithful reflection that a convinced team is capable of anything. Without minutes and with little opportunity in the eleven, he had to be the hero for a penalty against Gimnasia. The striker was not out of place and met the coach’s expectations for a historic victory in Argentina.
