The Liga Mayor de Fútbol de Lima,[1] the second division of Peruvian football (soccer) from 1976 until 1982.[2] Later it played the role between a third to fourth category, below the intermediate and second division.
Liga Mayor de Fútbol de Lima was a championship of the Province of Lima created in 1976 by the Peruvian Football Federation and remained in force until 1986. Later, it became a precursor championship of the Región IX Metropolitana. Initially it played the role of second category (tournament within the Copa Peru system) until 1984, the year that the second professional category returned.
In 1987, the foundations of Peruvian football were modified again. Liga Mayor de Fútbol de Lima disappeared. The teams that maintained their category and those teams from the capital that were relegated from the first professional league were absorbed and affiliated with the Región IX Metropolitana. However, according to most media outlets at the time, both leagues were merged.
