Francisco ‘Chiqui’ Arce’s team did what they had to do in front of an audience that painted the stage in the south of the country as blaugrana, although the point is that it depended on a defeat by Olimpia to extend the dispute over the trophy to an extra game.
Fernando Romero, with a brace (9 and 52 minutes), led the Ciclón to victory against an albiceleste team that was looking for points today to fight for qualification for the Copa Sudamericana.

Gabriel Báez, at 15′, scored the temporary 2-0 for Barrio Obrero.
Lautaro Comas, already in minute 76, scored the discount goal for Guaireña.
With the 3-1 the match was closed, a result that ultimately did not work for one or the other: Cerro was finally runner-up with 48 points and closed a year without any title despite being the best in terms of harvest in the cumulative table (98 pts.), while the Villarrica representative failed in his intention to be international again next season.
