Career

Pando began his senior career in 2003 with Peruvian Segunda División side Universidad San Marcos^[1] He scored his first professional goal on 6 July 2003 in his club's win over América Cochahuayco in round 10 of that season, with Pando scoring the winning goal.^[1] He stayed with Universidad San Marcos until the end of the 2006 season, scoring a total of 18 goals in four seasons there.^[1]

Finally in January 2007 Pando would have his first spell in the Peruvian top-flight by joining Alianza Atlético.^{[citation needed]} There he made his Torneo Descentralizado league debut on 14 February 2007 in a 0–0 draw at home against FBC Melgar.^{[citation needed]}

In 2012 he played for Real Garcilaso and finished as the Torneo Descentralizado's top goalscorer with 27 goals. He was separated from the team before the second match in the final against Sporting Cristal.^[2] The club Garcilaso resolved his contract claiming he had a "lack of identification with the club".^[2]
