history
The history of the modern soccer game in Peru began in the 19th century. The Lima Cricket Club was founded by British immigrants in 1859, and over the years it has also added football to its program. In 1906 the name was finally changed to Lima Cricket and Football Club.
The first Peruvian soccer league was founded on February 27, 1912. The participating teams all came from the capital Lima . The first champion was Lima Cricket FBG. The league was dissolved again in 1921. The Peruvian Football Association FPF was founded in 1922 . In 1926 he took over the management of a new soccer league. From now on, clubs from the port city of Callao not far from Lima were also allowed to take part in the game. Although teams from the rest of the country were still unable to join the league, the champions were considered to be the best national team. The status as an amateur league lasted until 1950. The best teams of this era were Universitario de Deportes and Alianza Lima .
In 1951 the league received professional status. The first professional champions were the Sport Boys . The Peruvian champion has been taking part in the Copa Libertadores since 1960 . From 1966 teams from all over the country are allowed to play for the Peruvian title. The championship was now called Campeonato Descentralizado . From 1972 to 1992 the mode of the league was changed several times. So there was u. a. several regional leagues, whose champions played off the Peruvian champions in a final round. In 1992 the decentralized league was reintroduced. In 1997, the Apertura and Clausura mode was adopted, in which the season is split into two six-month competitions. The champions of Apertura and Clausura played the title in two finals up to 2008. From 2009 the championship will be held in three rounds. The placement at the end of the regular season leads to a division into two groups, in which further games are played. The two champions of these groups play two games for the title.
So far, 20 different teams have won the Peruvian soccer championship. Universitario de Deportes , Alianza Lima and Sporting Cristal are considered the big three . They have won the most titles with 26, 22 and 15 national championships respectively. The FBC Melgar and Juan Aurich are the only teams outside the Lima metropolitan who could win the national championship. Also worth mentioning is Cienciano , who was the only Peruvian team to celebrate international success ( Copa Sudamericana 2003 and Recopa Sudamericana 2004).
mode
league
16 teams take part in the league. The season usually runs from February to December. The matches take place on Saturdays and Sundays, and in some weeks there will also be games on Wednesdays.
The Peruvian championship is divided into three rounds. In the first round, all 16 clubs in the Primera División meet twice on the basis of a pre-season schedule; once in your own stadium and once in the opponent's stadium. The regular season has 30 game days. The placement of the clubs at the end of this first round is the basis for a division into two groups. Teams in uneven places play in group A, teams in even places in group B. In their groups, the clubs meet their opponents twice in a total of 14 games. The group winners play the final of the Peruvian championship in two legs.
When determining the placements, the points scored by a club are first relevant. 3 points are awarded for a win, 1 point for a draw and 0 points for a defeat. In the event of a tie, the better goal difference first decides on the order of placement; if the difference is the same, then the number of goals scored. If this comparison still does not result in a decision, a decision game will be played on a neutral seat. Two teams relegate to the Segunda División at the end of the season . The champions of the Segunda División and the Copa Peru are promoted .
International
For the 2010 season, six teams qualify for the international competitions Copa Libertadores and Copa Sudamericana . The three participants in the Copa Libertadores consist of the two finalists for the championship and the third-best club in terms of points. The finalists start in the second round of the Copa Libertadores, the third in round 1. The three participants in the Copa Sudamericana are the clubs that occupy places 4 to 6 in the aggregated season table. International meetings are held on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays.
