Overview
- Joao Rojas put ADT ahead inside the first minute at the Inca Garcilaso after a pass from Gerson Barreto.
- Álvaro Ampuero’s apparent 56th-minute leveler for Cusco was overturned on VAR review by referee Edwin Ordoñez.
- D’Alessandro Montenegro sealed the win with a late strike around the 85th minute from a service by Bazán.
- Coach Horacio Melgarejo’s 4-5-1, with hard-working pivots Ángel Pérez and Gerson Barreto and a strong display from Gustavo Dulanto, kept Cusco at bay.
- The result undercuts pre-match odds that heavily favored Cusco and sends the Dorados to Lima needing a result against Universitario to stay in the Clausura race.
