Universitario de Deportes striker Gianluca Lapadula scored in a 1-1 draw against Sporting Cristal in matchday 4 of the Liga 1 Torneo Clausura at the Estadio Monumental. The striker produced the single goal for the crema team after breaking free from his marker.
The goal marked the second strike for Lapadula, known as El Bambino, since joining the team. His first goal celebration for the U came against Cusco FC on July 24. Despite a critical period for Universitario, the forward has provided an immediate response with goals.
Italian league recognition
Italy's Serie A acknowledged his performances with a message on social media platform X. The Italian league posted asking whether the crema fans could hear them, alongside an image of Lapadula carrying out one of his customary goal celebrations.
