FPV Upholds Universitario Win, Rejects Alianza Lima Appeal in Roster Breach Case

The ruling enforces the roster limit with an automatic loss, reshaping the table before the stage’s final round.

Overview

  • The FPV’s Comisión de Justicia/Comité de Control declared Alianza Lima’s appeal unfounded and confirmed Universitario’s points from the disputed match.
  • Officials cited a violation of numeral 11.1 of the competition bases and applied article 361 of the Reglamento General, which mandates an automatic defeat.
  • The resolution is final with no further recourse and ratifies a symbolic 3–0 (25–0, 25–0, 25–0) in favor of Universitario.
  • The infraction stemmed from Alianza fielding four foreign players simultaneously after late first‑set substitutions attributed to coach Facundo Morando.
  • Updated standings list Universitario on 27 points level with San Martín and Alianza Lima third on 24, with Universitario vs. Deportivo Wanka on January 3 and Alianza vs. Regatas on January 4.
