Overview
- César Vallejo requested an integral review of Estadio Max Augustín and asked to move the match if turf, structural safety or medical standards are not met.
- Comerciantes FC rejected the petition, noting the venue holds an FPF Commission of Licenses approval granted in March 2025 and hosted Liga2 games this season.
- RPP reported the IPD cannot suspend an FPF‑licensed stadium and that any action would follow an FPF Infrastructure inspection and a licensing decision.
- The single‑match quarterfinal remains scheduled for October 5 in Iquitos, with Carlos Vidaurre García in Tarapoto listed as Comerciantes’ licensed alternate venue.
- Libero reported an alleged meeting between Vallejo leaders and the IPD president related to the case, a claim that has not been independently confirmed.
