Late Drama as Juan Pablo II College and ADT Share the Spoils in Hard-Fought 1-1 Draw

At Complejo Deportivo Juan Pablo II, a tense Liga 1 Clausura fixture ended with Juan Pablo II College and ADT splitting the points, as both sides netted once in a match that offered moments of high drama but ultimately left the standings largely unchanged.
From the opening whistle on Tuesday night, the stakes were clear: ADT, sitting fifth and aiming to close the gap on the league leaders, pressed high, seeking an early advantage, while Juan Pablo II College, fighting to climb from 14th, sought stability and a crucial home result. The first half unfolded as a tactical chess match, with both teams probing but unable to carve out clear chances. Fouls from G. Dulanto, R. Fernández, and A. Moyano punctuated a physical opening period, and the halftime whistle blew with the score locked at 0-0.
The second half saw a marked increase in intensity. ADT’s front line, bolstered by recent form after three consecutive wins, looked to break the deadlock. Juan Pablo II, spurred on by a vocal home crowd, responded with spirited counterattacks. The breakthrough finally came in the 68th minute. After sustained pressure, ADT’s midfield orchestrated a quick move down the right, finding their striker in the box for a clinical finish past the Juan Pablo II keeper, sending the visiting bench into celebration.
Juan Pablo II, undeterred, mounted a determined response. Their persistence paid off in the 81st minute, when a sweeping move down the left saw their winger cut inside and unleash a driven shot that deflected off an ADT defender and nestled into the net. The stadium erupted as the hosts pulled level, setting up a frantic final stretch.
Both sides pressed for a winner in the closing minutes, with Juan Pablo II nearly snatching victory from a corner, only to be denied by a superb save from the ADT goalkeeper. In stoppage time, ADT’s last-ditch effort sailed just wide, and the referee’s whistle confirmed a 1-1 stalemate.
For ADT, the draw keeps them in the top five but represents a missed opportunity to put pressure on the league’s frontrunners. Juan Pablo II, meanwhile, will take heart from a resilient performance that earned them a valuable point as they look to steer clear of the lower reaches of the table.
While the result might not have shifted the standings dramatically, the intensity and late drama will linger as both teams look ahead to crucial fixtures in the weeks to come. For the fans at Complejo Deportivo Juan Pablo II, it was a night that showcased the grit and unpredictability of Peruvian top-flight football.
