FBC Melgar — club snapshot (Arequipa)

• Name: FBC Melgar (commonly “Melgar”), based in Arequipa, Peru.
• Founded: 1915.
• Nickname: “El Dominó”.
• Home city: Arequipa (stadium historically: Estadio Mariano Melgar / other local venues over time).

Context: mid-1990s (circa 1995–1996)

• Peruvian top‑flight competition in the 1990s was organized under the Torneo Descentralizado (with formats that varied year to year, sometimes using Apertura/Clausura or regional phases).
• Clubs like Melgar competed for national championship places, Copa Libertadores berths, and battled relegation depending on season structure and final aggregate tables.
• Detailed match results, final standings and squad lists for specific seasons are best verified in contemporaneous records and specialized databases because formats and records changed frequently in that era.

Coach — Héctor Barrios (your note for 1995/96)

• You indicated Héctor Barrios was Melgar’s coach around 1995/96. My current data does not contain a fully verified, itemized coaching log for every Peruvian club season to definitively confirm or deny that listing here.
• If Héctor Barrios was in charge in that period, primary verification sources (below) will provide match reports, lineups and announcements from the time that confirm his tenure and dates.

Where to confirm season-by-season details (recommended sources)

• RSSSF (Rec.Sport.Soccer Statistics Foundation) — historical league tables and season summaries for Peru.
• WorldFootball.net and Soccerway — season fixtures and some squad lists (coverage varies by year).
• Transfermarkt and BDFA — player and manager career pages (useful for cross‑checking coach appointments and player rosters).
• Contemporary Peruvian newspapers (archives of El Comercio, La República, local Arequipa papers) — match reports, managerial appointments and interviews from 1995–1996.
• FBC Melgar official channels or club historians — club archives, yearbooks or centenary publications often document coaching timelines and season squads.
• Peruvian Football Federation (FPF) archives — official competition records and registrations.

What can be compiled if you want season detail

• Full Melgar squad for 1995 and/or 1996 (player names, positions, shirt numbers where available).
• Managerial timeline for that season (start/end dates, caretaker spells if any).
• Match list and results for the league campaign(s), cup matches, and any international competition involvement.
• Final league standings, top scorers for the club, and notable events (promotions/relegations, standout matches).

I can gather and compile those specific season items (squad, match results, standings, and manager confirmation) from the sources above and present them in a concise summary.
