1934 Peruvian Primera División

The 1934 season of the Peruvian Primera División was the 19th season of top-flight Peruvian football. A total of 9 teams competed in this league. Alianza Lima was the regular champion, but as Universitario protested the rules, a playoff took place. After winning this playoff Universitario won the 1934 championship.[1]

Alianza Lima still claims to be the champion,[2] and today there is an ongoing effort by its supporters to get the title recognized to Alianza Lima, according to their own recent investigations and the official resolutions that were published on the newspapers of the time.[3][4] However, the Peruvian Football Federation and the Sports Association of Professional Football, both recognize the title of this year belong to Universitario.[5][6][7] Furthermore, in 2012 the FIFA published an article in which Universitario appears holding the 1934 championship.[8]
