There are players who arrive at a club to add. And there are others who stay to leave their mark. Hernán Barco belongs to that select group of soccer players who not only step on the court: they transform it.
Look: the flag “enter history” in a coliseum that looked like the monumental: what was not seen from the triumph of the U before Regatas
At 40, the “pirate” continues to compete as if they were in his best days. There is no pause, there is no truce. In each training, in each reduced, in each football-tenis match, it fights as if they were playing a final. Next to Paolo Guerrero – another eternal warrior – they challenge themselves daily. Because for them there is no “friendly” word, there is only one slogan: win.
But what makes ships more than a veteran striker is its unconditional delivery. The goal is no longer his only obsession; Now he is also a guide, he is a captain without a tape, he is the first to lift the youth that falls and the last to leave the court. It is that voice that orders, encourages and demands. His presence in the costume is a living legend, and his example, a compass for those who just begin to dream.
In this season, it is still important. Maybe he doesn’t run as before, but his tactical intelligence, his hierarchy and that predatory instinct are not gone. The goal still seeks it, and when he finds it, he shouts with the strength of a young man who wants to eat the world.
Boats does not play for routine. Play because he loves. Because in each ball divided, in each filtered pass, in each look to the sky after a goal, there is a story that refuses to go out. And while others look at the clock, he looks at the arch. Because his career can be in the final stretch, but his heart is still at the starting point.
In Matute, it is no longer seen as the “9”. It is seen as what it is: a symbol. And when the day comes when I hang the booties, the void will be immense. But until then, while the ball is, Hernán Barco will continue to remember something essential: football is played with our feet, but wins with the soul.

El Comercio conducted a survey of leading sports journalists and Leao Butrón on the contribution of Hernán Barco in the Néstor Gorosito team.
- – Is ships the best foreigner of all time?
- – Should ships be a starter?
- – Ships that charge should she occupy after the retirement?
LEAO BUTRÓN – EXJUGADOR DE ALIANZA LIMA
– So quickly, I think so, because it has not only been influential in the Alliance Championship, but on a day -to -day basis and the complicated moments has managed to respond and face.
– I think the rotation they are doing. It is allowing both ships and Paolo Guerrero to give the maximum of their possibilities and that is good for Alliance. Finally, who decides who is the owner, is the coaching staff.
– I don’t know. While I am working in Alianza Lima in the administrative and minor part, I would not know how to tell you, but it is clear to me that it is one of the people who adds to the institution. Already those in charge of the club will see that possibility in the future. More than everything depends on them.
Eddie Fleischman – El Comercio collaborator
– Yes. Boats is the best foreign player in the history of Alliance. He has 3 seasons being the best in the tournament and remains a leader inside and outside the field in Libertadores.
– full, yes
– Quizás one in the sports management of the club.
Aldo Aquino – Channel 5 journalist – Panamericana TV
– I think that title has been won for everything done in Alianza Lima.
– There are matches in which I could start. Depending on the circumstances he has hierarchy and Gorosito is driving it well.
– That will depend on the administration either in management or in minors.
