Oriente Petrolero Snaps Winless Streak with Thrilling Victory
After two months of frustration, the cheers returned to the Tahuichi stadium as Oriente Petrolero secured a hard-fought 4-2 victory over Gualberto Villarroel San José. The win snapped a six-game winless streak for the ‘Purslanes,’ reigniting their hopes for a coveted Copa Sudamericana berth.
Garcia Shines as Oriente Overcomes Early Challenge
Joaquín Monasterio’s side found themselves trailing early in the match when Rodrigo Vargas gave GV San José the lead in the 30th minute. Rumors of a seventh consecutive winless game began to circulate among the anxious crowd. However, John García, playing with determination, quickly silenced the doubters. Garcia struck twice, first in the 32nd minute to level the score, and then again in the 51st minute to give Oriente a lead they would not relinquish.
Gilbert Álvarez added to the lead with a well-timed goal in the 45th minute, seemingly putting the game out of reach for the visiting team.
Oriente Weathers Late Surge, Secures Crucial Victory
GV San José refused to give up. Brian Sobrero pulled a goal back for the Oruro-based side in the 62nd minute, heightening the tension once again. Despite the late surge from the visitors, Oriente Petrolero held firm. Marcos Riquelme’s 89th-minute goal sealed the victory, sending the Tahuichi stadium into a frenzy.
“It was a tough match,” admitted Monasterio after the game. “GV San José pushed us hard, but the boys showed fantastic character to come back from behind and secure the win. This is a big boost for the team, and we will build on this going forward.”
Looking Ahead: Oriente Eyes Copa Sudamericana Berth
The victory vaulted Oriente Petrolero to ninth place in the standings with 31 points. They now set their sights on Wednesday’s clash against Royal Pari, hoping to continue their climb up the table and solidify their position in the race for a Copa Sudamericana spot.
GV San José, despite the loss, remains firmly in fourth place with 38 points. They face FC Universitario on Tuesday, seeking to bounce back and maintain their strong position in the league.
