Overview
- El Comercio reports the board decided to terminate Gorosito following a 1-1 draw settled on penalties, with formal notification expected Sunday and no official club statement yet.
- The result prevents Alianza Lima from entering the next Copa Libertadores directly as the Peru 4 slot, shifting its international path and revenue outlook.
- La República cites journalist Gerson Cuba as the first to report the decision, while the club canceled the postmatch press conference and offered no comments.
- Gorosito had recently agreed to a renewal through 2026, and El Comercio says the separation would require a contract indemnity.
- The coach faced mounting criticism in recent weeks over tactical choices during an irregular campaign, set against broader tension that included the Hernán Barcos exit saga.
