By your side, Yacare XV, directed by the Argentine Ricardo Le Fort, arrived with an inflated chest of confidence for the resounding victory against Cobras Brasil XV in Sao Paulo.
Pretty even match in general terms. Defensive mismatches, and penalties, were in order. It was difficult to find a clear dominator.

The points began to arrive after 20 minutes through a kick from González Amorosino (0-3). The response was almost immediate, also due to a conversion from the local 10, Federico Cacciabue (3-3).
Yacare XV pulled the hierarchy of his captain, Ignacio Inchauspe, who scored a try as handsome, and Cacciabue added the conversion. Thus the Paraguayans were 10-3 up (30′).
Cacciabue continued to be fine when it came to hitting the posts and contributed three more points at the end of the first stage to go 13-3 to the dressing rooms.
The reiteration of fouls affected the performance of ours in the complementary.
Yacare XV showed off tactics by hitting the opposite field with a pure blackboard. The line out was a weapon. That is how the eighth Marcos Riquelme added a try (65′), which Inchauspe also made -two more- with the conversion. 20-3 and total celebration in the stands.
The difference, important, diminished the Raptors.
Yacare XV decorated the victory with a last try by Felipe Puertas. 25-3 and nothing else.
Its about second win in a row for the Paraguayan franchisewho only lost in Córdoba against Dogos XV.
Now, Yacare XV must visit the last champion Peñarol in Montevideo, for the fifth date, on March 17.
