The delegate of Universitario de Deportes, Martín Kohatsu, spoke with Radio Ovación and commented that the Monumental Stadium will not be able to host the duel against Cienciano on Monday, January 23 because the lights will be dismantled after the ‘Noche Crema’. In this sense, they have already sent a letter to the FPF informing about it.
“We have resubmitted a letter requesting the rescheduling because yesterday the electricity provider contacted us who is making the change with which we have started and we have a schedule. Given the programming, we had not realized that we are not going to have lights on Monday the 23rd because the disassembly begins after the ‘Cream Night’ to be able to reach the South American Cup and to have the stadium suitable in case the team wants to play in the Monumental. On Monday the wiring and structure changes begin in the Monumental”indicated.
“Nor you can play at night because we don’t have lighting. This could have been avoided if the league had consulted, because the league autocratically decides how to do the programming without asking what state the light change process is in, which the Federation knows well, because it is something that was discussed with Agustín Lozano ”he added.
Kohatsu pointed out that this new letter responds exclusively to the issue of lights, since the first referred to the little discretion of the organizers when choosing the schedule. “Given Mr. Lara’s refusal to have a predisposition, we are sending this second one because we are showing that we are not going to be able to hold the game at night due to an improvement issue, not because we don’t want to”sentenced.
The first letter from the ‘U’ to the FPF
University of Sports made a formal complaint to the authorities of the league 1 to reconsider the programming of his debut in the Opening Tournament against scientist of Cusco in the Monumental stadium without considering the Sports Show Law, which would harm their interests.
“We put on record our disagreement with the programming imposed by the FPF for the first date of the 2023 tournament. Our governing body once again makes arbitrary decisions that have not been previously coordinated with professional clubs”, expressed the statement of the student cadre.
Monumental must be played one day sooner than expected. “Unfortunately, the FPF scheduled our first game without consultation for league 1 for Monday at 8:00 p.m. This arbitrary decision, which affects the development of Peruvian soccer, does not take into account the Sports Shows Law, because according to its guidelines, our match should have been scheduled for Sunday, January 22“adds the document that was shared on social networks.
