Blooming got his first win of the tournament all against all of the Professional Division, this Saturday, at the Tahuichi Aguilera stadium. It was 3-1 against Guabirá, in a match corresponding to the ninth date.
With these three units, the celestial ones reach five and provisionally leave the last place from the standings table.
For his part, Guabirá, who had just lost at home against Oriente Petrolero, he was planted with seven points and is ranked 13th out of 17 teams.
In the first time, the cruceña academy did things better and he created goal situations that could have allowed him to go into the break with a difference of two or three goals, but he only scored once.
The 1-0 was the work of Fernando Arismendi, who scored with a header, when minute 17 was running. The Uruguayan defined very well a cross by Juan Carlos Arce who had escaped on the left. The goalkeeper Jhon Jairo Cuéllar could do nothing.
The reds from the north achieved equality in the second half. Gustavo Peredo authorized Diego Alaniz (49′), who defined first, almost stepping on the area, to put the ball to the right side of the local goalkeeper Braulio Uraezaña.
Blooming quickly unbalanced again the score with a penalty goal by Rafinha (56′). The maximum penalty was sanctioned by the referee Ivo Méndez at the request of the VAR. The Brazilian kicked almost to the middle of the arc, while the goalkeeper Cuéllar chose his right post.
At 75 minutes came the reassuring goal for the sky-blues and the one that liquidated the lawsuit. This time it was César Menacho who converted from a penalty with a low shot next to Cuéllar’s left post, which this time went to the same sector, but I couldn’t stop the shot.
The referee from Santa Cruz had to go to the VAR to ratify his decision by a handball from Santiago Echavarría after a half-clearance from goalkeeper Cuéllar.
Blooming must play again on Tuesday (18:00 HB), but this time for the Copa Sudamericana. The light blues must visit Newell’s Old Boys from Argentina, for the second date of group E.
