Idol… Emiliano Alvaro has publicly announced his retirement from football. At the age of 32, a stubborn hock injury led him to make the agonizing decision to hang his shoes. During his career, he knew how to defend the Uruguayan team, and he always showed great adherence to the Liverpool jersey, the club he returned to from Italy to be promoted once again to the big circuit of Uruguayan football. In order not to abandon the active practice of the sport, he began playing wheelchair basketball at APRI facilities. His last official match was against Penarol, on September 5, 2020, at the Apertura Championship. His teammates did not forget him, and dedicated him to winning the Clausura tournament, celebrated the goals, and wore the cup with their traditional number “11”.
a hero… Liverpool made its first name in the list of champions of the Clausura Championship. With the 2020 edition, which is added to the victories of the 2019 Mediterranean Championship and Uruguay Super Cup 2020. Black and Blue, he remained at the best sporting moment in its history.
Bell… Liverpool’s campaign has been great: winning 9 matches, 4 draws, 30 goals in favor and 11 against. An unbeaten team and the highest scoring group in the tournament.
Colorado … Juan Ignacio Ramirez, with 11 goals, is the clausura champion gunner. In addition to being the tournament’s top scorer, with 22 goals, he is the highest in the Uruguay Championship. As if that weren’t enough, with 73 goals scored, it was a historic break in the organization.
idiomatic… Marcelo Mendes, coach of the hero. At the age of 40, he is one of the youngest coaches in the tournament, along with Francisco Palladino (Deportivo Maldonado). He started his career at Progreso, on October 11, 2016. He took office at Liverpool, on October 18, 2020, and only five months later won his first title.
