It has not been the best presentation of Deportivo Táchira in the group stage of the Conmebol Libertadores Cup, last Wednesday it was outside the important continental event of clubs; This situation brought with it that coach Edgar Pérez Greco and his players remain with the expedited path to go for honors in the final home runs of the Opening 2025 Tournament of the Futve League.
And in the face of this premise, which had a happy start to the Bicampeón Aurinegro after reaching a triumph of great road on the road, it came with the full saddlebags, it won 1-2 to Puerto Cabello Academy in its fief of the stadium the “Bombonerita” stadium, three gold points, compliance with the first date, this Saturday goes for more.
However, despite the triumph, he could not perch in the first place, the Carabobo FC, also with victory outside the “Misael Delgado”, took out his good loot from the national capital, won 1-3 to Metropolitanos FC, a result that catapulted him as leader of the Brangular B for the best average goal.
Winners against losers
Double Sabatina Batch; At 5 in the afternoon, in the Carabobeña capital the troop of Diego Merino, the Cabriales team receives its neighboring Puerto Cabello Academy, two good teams with a seat in the Carabobo state, classic of centrals; The hosts with 3 points under their credit and with the intention of adding to three to ratify the first place, and the visitors with the need to capitalize points, but above all inspired after the historical triumph against the Basque Brazilian of range in the “Bombonerita”, a surprising 4-1, something that looked like a utopia, a game corresponding to the group stage of the Group of the Copa Cup South American Cup.
For the second time in the future of Venezuelan rented football at the Club level, a Creole team wins as a win of Brazil; The first to do so was the glorious Portuguese FC in the semifinal of Copa Libertadores in 1977, he realized the International of Porto Alegre by 3-0.
Táchira faces a rival wounded and difficult to overcome
On March 16, on date 8 of the elimination round of the 2025 Opening Tournament in Pueblo Nuevo, the Aurinegro premises had to overcome, he was losing at home against a hard metropolitanian, in the end the game ended up equalized to a goal per side; And this Saturday they meet again in the same scenario, now on the second day of the Final B home run.
-The ten national champion, already eliminated from the fair liberator of clubs, only with an eye on the Creole tournament, a “violet” set is measured with the obligation to add, the only thing that serves is the triumph to be optional to fight the first place; A setback would be serious, it would practically be on the edge of the abyss, while a draw leaves it with a light of hope.
Before this dilemma of the rival on duty, Edgar Pérez Grupo and his players will leave from the initial whistle in search of the 3 points in dispute, a second triumph to the thread that would leave yellow and black in enviable position to stay at the top of the home run B.
The coaching staff of the local team will have at your disposal a good part of its players, a broad squad that allows Pérez Greco to look at the bench and have where to choose from the time required of any change.
