Alianza Lima — Palestino: 1:2, Friendlies Clubs

Alianza Lima and Palestino met in a club friendly on 1 October 2026, and the visitors took all three points with a 2:1 win. Three goals decided the affair, with two before half-time and one to complete the result.

S. Gallegos gave Alianza the lead in the seventh minute, and L. Ramos levelled by the seventeenth. To be fair, the hosts had the better of the opening exchanges, but Palestino responded quickly enough to stay in the game.

B. Carrasco struck in the 45th minute to put Palestino ahead, and that goal proved decisive. And here's the thing — Alianza pushed for an equaliser after the break but never got going. The visitors kept their side in it through discipline rather than domination.

Palestino registered 125 attacks to Alianza's 90, while possession sat at 53 per cent for the away side. Both teams picked up three yellow cards each, and Alianza won more free-kicks, 26 to 13.

Alianza's recent form includes a 2:0 victory over ADT and a 1:2 loss to Universitario, while Palestino came through a 2:3 defeat against Universidad Católica and a 2:1 win over Universidad Concepción. By then, the gap between the two sides on the pitch was clear enough.
