Club Ada Jaen 1–1 Univ. Cesar Vallejo | Peruvian Liga 2 | 26 May 2026

Second‑division football in Peru produced a gripping stalemate as Club Ada Jaen hosted Universidad Cesar Vallejo. Both teams entered the match desperate to climb the Liga 2 table, and a late flurry of goals ensured honours were shared.

Tight First Half, Explosive Finish

The opening 45 minutes were characterised by cautious build‑ups and few clear‑cut chances. Ada Jaen’s compact defence frustrated Vallejo’s attack, while the hosts struggled to break down a disciplined visiting backline. The deadlock remained unbroken until the 68th minute.

Vallejo struck first when winger Carlos Meneses latched onto a long ball, cut inside, and fired low into the far corner. The goal seemed to shake Ada Jaen into life. Within ten minutes, they levelled: a quick corner routine saw Jorge Huamán head home from close range.

Key Statistics

• 68' – Carlos Meneses gives Vallejo the lead (0–1).
• 78' – Jorge Huamán equalises for Ada Jaen (1–1).
• Possession: Ada Jaen 48% – 52% Vallejo.
• Shots on target: 3–4 in favour of the visitors.

What It Means

Ada Jaen remain in the lower half of the Liga 2 standings, now with eight points from six matches. Vallejo, tipped as promotion contenders, slip to fifth after dropping points against a stubborn opponent. The draw extends Vallejo’s unbeaten run to three games, but manager Raul Fernandez will be frustrated not to have turned dominance into three points.

For the local supporters in Jaen, a point against a traditionally stronger side is a respectable outcome. The team showed character to fight back, and if they can maintain that spirit, a mid‑table finish looks attainable.
