Deportivo Táchira FC might not maintain the advantage on the scoreboard and ended up giving up a golden point to Estudiantes de Mérida, at the start of the 2024 Clausura Tournament.
The tiger squad showed strength in several passages of the clash once morest the academics at the Metropolitano. The baton of the yellow and black team was shared by Mauirce Cova and Felipe Pardo, the Colombian midfielder showed his mettle in the city of the gentlemen and aroused praise in the media of the border state.
Táchira was looking for Tito Rojas’ goal, but the strong play in the midfield cut off the initiative of both teams, preventing the spectators from enjoying the spectacle.
The strong leg was the common denominator in the first 45′, the main Reyes Soto dressed three players from the yellow and black and three from the local team in yellow.
In the second half, the wind favoured Eduardo Saragó’s team. Yanniel Hernández crossed the ball to Pardo, the Colombian’s header hit Marlon García’s hand, resulting in the penalty. Cova took the shot perfectly, with power and placement at medium height, towards the left side of the goal defended by Tito Rojas.
With the scoreboard in Eduardo Saragó’s favour, the locals moved their lines forward and tried to put pressure on the yellow and black team.
The technical team of the Tigers made changes, reinforcing the last zone of the black and gold, but at times the changes might not stop the advance of the Merideños. When everything indicated that the Tachirenses would return home with the three points, in the fourth additional minute, Elías Alderete scored for the locals.
