ASA FC Disqualified by Disciplinary Ruling as Unión Minas Reinstated to Copa Perú Final

A disciplinary commission upheld Unión Minas’ complaint over two improperly registered players.

Overview

  • Peru’s amateur league disciplinary body awarded Unión Minas a 3–0 forfeit in the semifinal second leg, overturning an on-field defeat on penalties to ASA FC.
  • Unión Minas will face Deportivo ANBA on Sunday, November 16, at Estadio Hugo Sotil in Villa El Salvador, with kickoff set for 2:30 p.m. local time.
  • The winner secures promotion to Liga 2 for 2026, while the runner-up enters a playoff against the Liga 3 runner-up for a second promotion spot.
  • Unión Minas alleged ASA FC’s use of Paulo Lovera and Axel Gastelu was irregular because they were registered with Club Huracán until May 2025 without valid district or provincial certification.
  • The ruling can be appealed, but for now ASA FC is disqualified and Unión Minas advances to the national final.
