General Caballero and Olimpia met today at the Antonio Aranda Stadium in Ciudad Del Este for the seventh date of the Apertura 2023 tournament.

The Spanish Carlos Aitor García -directed his last set as DT striped- lined up the young gunner Allan Wlk from the start in the company of Derlis González in point.
By your side, the always demanding Troadio Duarte had almost all his potential, except for the controversial Teo Arcewhich would fix its situation with the board only next week.

Olimpia footballers shot out of changing rooms and brought danger to the area, without giving respite, perhaps because of the presence of the new coach Diego Aguirre in the stands.

General went on to defend himself, delayed his lines and was saved on several occasions. The Dean, neither slow nor lazy, did not stop attacking either and was closer to third than the Mallorcans of parity.
Olimpia played perhaps her best game of the year. He cornered his dazed rival for wide passages and got complicated on the finish. If it weren’t for his lack of aim, he would have avoided suffering.
With this result, the Dean cuts a streak of three draws and one loss. With 12 integers, he moves to second placewaiting for what Guaraní, Trinidense and Cerro Porteño do.
By your side, Troadio still couldn’t add three with General and morale falls more every day.
