After a 6-game winless run, Real Garcilaso wins 4-0 over Sport Boys in the ninth round of the Peruvian Clausura

Friday, the 27th of September 2019, 15:00 local time (20:00 UTC), Inca Garcilaso de la Vega Stadium, Cusco, Peru, the ninth round of the Peruvian Clausura (Liga 1).
The two teams arrived at this game with completely opposing form. Real Garcilaso did not win a single game of the last six (including their quarter-finals match in Copa Bicentenario), while Sport Boys won the last four consecutive games in the Clausura, leaving the last position in the aggregate table of the Peruvian First Division. The return of Real Garcilaso on their own ground, Inca Garcilaso de la Vega Stadium, was also a decisive factor, as they lost their previous two "home" games played at Sicuani.
Real Garcilaso imposed the pace of the game and controlled most of the match, especially the second half, when the visitors were simply hammered. However, Sport Boys had the first goal opportunity, when Arismendi sent carelessly a pass to the goalkeeper, the ball was intercepted by Ross, but Ferreyra succeeded in blocking him (16'). Immediately, Souza could have scored for Garcilaso, but was blocked in his turn (17'). Soon, Nunez crossed from the right and Carando headed the ball in the  net: 1-0 (24'). Sport Boys attacked more in the final minutes of the first half and even had a goal, cancelled for a hand ball of the striker.
In the second half, it was all Real Garcilaso. After some good chances right after the start, Carando doubled the home side advantage with a right-footed shot from inside the box after the initial shot by Souza was diverged by a defender: 2-0 (54'). Then Carando passed to Souza who found the net with a short-range left-footed shot above the keeper: 3-0 (71'). Finally, Carando's hat-trick came with a header from the middle of the box after a cross by Joao Ortiz from the left: 4-0 (76').
Real Garcilaso: Ferreyra - Arsimendi, Canova (Benincasa 59'), Quina, Joao Ortiz - Aucca, Archimbaud - Nunez (Ismodes 66'), Ramua, Souza (Lecaros 78') - Carando. Manager: Javier Arce.
Sport Boys: Medina - Tejada, Balbin, De La Haza, Garcia - Torrejon (S. Gonzales 56'), Tragodara - Uribe, Chavez, Ross (Peralta 66') - Penco (Manco 78'). Head coach: Marcelo Vivas.
Referee: Fernando Legario.
Yellow cards: Aucca 79', Archimabud 82', Ismodes 89' - Tragodara 45', Tejada 84'.
For Real Garcilaso, this win was absolutely necessary to regain confidence and to stay safely away from the relegation area. This was the first match since the arrival of the managing team led by Javier Arce in which they really showed strength and a desire to win. Their next match will be a very tough one, away at Sporting Cristal, last year Peruvian champions.
Sport Boys suffered a painful defeat after four consecutive wins and remain in the relegation area. Their next match will be at home against the leaders, Universitario de Deportes.
